How long did you wait to have sex with c section

Does anyone know if it is safe to have an organsm before 6 weeks ? I think your uterus contracts and is that bad for its healing ? Qnd would it hurt after.

I definitely wouldn’t have sex before 6 weeks but orgasm eh maybe. But you’ll probably be in pain still so I would still wait. No matter what don’t stick anything up there. You could get an infection.

Before 6 weeks there is an infection risk.

Everyone’s body is different so we can’t predict if you’ll feel pain. It is recommended to wait the 6 weeks… we did wait but we did do other things to get our rocks off together in between. 😅😜

I waited 8 weeks in the end and had zero issues. I wanted to make sure I didn’t mess my wound up or cause core damage. Didn’t hurt during or after. Uterine contractions can be triggered by orgasms and they aren’t bad for healing but they do hurt.

We waited 8 weeks. I wasn’t in pain, but it was not enjoyable/comfortable. Took a few times for me to enjoy it again. But like I said at 8 weeks no pain due to c-section.

I waited around 12 just because I didn't feel ready yet. Definitely wait to get checked out by the doctor first but then go for it if you are ready!

6 weeks

I didn’t had sex until several months, however I masturbated and had orgasm since the 1st or second week after my C section … was a great relief xx

2 weeks I waited

Definitely not before six weeks. I’m not sure about anyone else but typically for a c-section that usually don’t even clear you to go to a gym until 8 weeks. At least my doctor didn’t until 8 weeks. We waited until I was 12 weeks PP and it was a little painful. I wouldn’t expect it to feel great the first time again lol. So if it hurts just keep that in mind!

We tried about 5 1/2 weeks after but it hurt so we waited another 2 weeks and it was a gradual thing before we actually had full blown sex.

Thank you for sharing your stories girls xxx

It hurt for me at 6 weeks , best to wait to avoid infection and get a decent time to heal.

It really isn’t safe to insert anything before 6 weeks …

We waited for the 6 weeks but I found it uncomfortable still and only now about 4 months postpartum I’m starting to find it’s not as uncomfortable.
