Honestly, with twins, I was too exhausted to even think about it for months! Jokes aside, wait for at least 6 weeks postpartum to let your body heal properly. And don't forget to talk to your doctor about contraception, because you can get pregnant again very soon!
I completely understand how confusing this can be, especially with so many worries. If you are asking about during pregnancy, it is usually safe unless your doctor has advised bedrest or there's bleeding. If it's postpartum, please wait for your 6-week checkup and your doctor's green light.
I was also so nervous and overthought this so much! After delivery, please wait for at least 6 weeks because the internal healing takes time and there is always a risk of infection. Definitely consult your gynac during your postpartum checkup to be absolutely sure.
Beta, after baby is born, your body needs at least 40 days to heal completely. In our times, elders strictly advised resting during this period to avoid any pain or infections. Take some warm haldi milk and let your body recover first.
I totally understand that intimacy is important, but please prioritize your healing right now, dear. Your body has gone through such a beautiful but exhausting journey to bring your baby. Take your time, heal, and talk to your doctor when you feel ready.
Let's be practical—whether you had a normal delivery or C-section, wait for at least 6 weeks. Your uterus needs to contract back and the cervix needs to close. Once your gynac gives the okay at your 6-week check, you are good to go.
