How did you handle sex after birth? Did you wait the “6 weeks with nothing in the vagina” as the doctor ordered?

We did. Therefore one time, when I still wasn’t cleared for sex we were in the shower. He was hugging me and he ended up rubbing on my back and my crack after I rinsed out my conditioner (smooth and slippery). Not really on purpose, but it had been a few months and he came on my back from that.

Anyone else?

  • Haven't been through that.

  • Normaly doctors advise to avoid veginal sex for 6 weeks after birth but anal sex is no problem if both like this, otherwise, both should be patient

    • It was a problem for my c-section area.

    • @loves2learn, then both of you had patience, when you are on periods, what your hubby do if he is exited, do you have anal sex?

    • @zygum what is wrong with period sex? We have sex the same way we always do. Sometimes we do anal but mostly vaginal.
