Delivered around 5 weeks back, normal delivery. Bit awkward to ask but how long did u all wait before being intimate again? want to know whats safe na. thanks.
I was so busy managing a newborn and craving midnight snacks that we didn't even think about it for months! Take your time, there is absolutely no rush.
Since I had a C-section, my body took longer to heal inside. My gynac advised waiting for 6 to 8 weeks until the internal healing was complete and stitches were fine.
Listen, your body needs at least 6 weeks to recover, whether it was a normal delivery or C-section. Don't rush, and make sure to ask your doctor at your postpartum checkup.
Honestly, after weeks of morning sickness and then a exhausting delivery, sex was the last thing on my mind! Better to wait for your 6-week postpartum doctor checkup before trying.
The standard medical advice is to wait for at least 6 weeks until your postpartum bleeding stops. Make sure to use contraception because you can get pregnant again very quickly.
Give your body proper time to heal first and stay positive. Usually, doctors and elders suggest waiting at least 6 weeks post-delivery so everything heals naturally.
