Delivered 5 weeks back, normal delivery thi. Honestly thoda confused hu about when its actually ok to start again, dont want to rush anything. Anyone who has been through this pls share when u resumed?
Koi jaldi nahi hai bachhe, take all the time you need to heal. Your body has gone through a massive change during childbirth. Wait for your gynac to check you postpartum and confirm everything is perfectly healed before you start again.
Actually, my tracker app had a great article on postpartum intimacy. It mentioned waiting at least 6 weeks because of infection risks. Also, since breastfeeding can cause dryness, using a good quality lube really helps.
Please be very gentle with yourself right now. Having had a miscarriage in the past, I was always extra cautious about physical changes. I think it is safest to wait until your body feels completely strong and your doctor gives a clear go-ahead.
I had a normal delivery with stitches and was super scared. But once the 6-week doctor checkup was done and we went slow with plenty of lube, it was perfectly fine. Just don't rush it.
Honestly, who even has the energy for this? I am so sleep deprived that if my husband touches me, I just want him to massage my back and let me sleep! But seriously, wait for at least 1.5 months to let your body heal.
Haan bilkul kar sakte ho par thoda sabar rakho. Delivery ke baad body ko recover hone me time lagta hai na, toh immediate rush mat karo. Pehle doctor se checkup karwa lo fir hi plan karna.
Oh my god I was so terrified of this after my delivery! I kept thinking my stitches would tear or something bad would happen. Please wait for your 6-week postpartum checkup and use protection because u can conceive again so quickly.
Honestly even I keep wondering about this since we are planning to conceive soon. My cousin said postpartum healing takes around 6 to 8 weeks, so we should wait till the gynac gives the green signal.
After spending so much on delivery and hospital stays, you really don't want any infection or another quick pregnancy adding to the bills. Wait for the 6 weeks checkup and make sure to use protection because family planning tests and doctor visits are so expensive now.
Yes, it is fine but make sure your health parameters are stable. I had thyroid issues so I was super careful about checking with my doc for postpartum recovery before doing anything. Keep up with your regular doctor visits.
I felt so disconnected and nervous about my body after giving birth. When we first tried after two months, I felt some pain and had to stop. It takes time to feel like yourself again, so just take it slow.
Look, medically the cervix needs time to close and the uterus has to shrink back, which takes about 6 weeks. My husband always says to wait until your lochia completely stops to prevent any infection. Better to take the clearance from your gynac first.
My baby is 2 now and looking back, I remember being so nervous about this. Honestly, don't force yourself if you are not ready emotionally or physically, even after 2 months. Take your time, everything goes back to normal slowly.
