With #1 it was 4 weeks PP I think? I had minor minor tearing and just a couple of stitches.
I'm almost 3 weeks PP now and I've been ready for the past week! I'm still having some spotting though and we decided to wait until it stops. Booooo.
-
We dtd at five weeks pp. Would have earlier but I was worried about infection.
-
we dtd right before my pp check. i had an episiotomy and didn't want to risk the healing process before then-- i did feel fine/ready before then (i had minimal bleeding)
-
Just wanted to pop in and say I think you pre-6 weeks pp people are INSANE! Although I know DH wishes we were in that camp...
-
I was still bleeding/spotting until like, 8 weeks.... so heck no. 17 days?! I don't think I was able to sit properly at that point. More power to you.
-
My midwive's rule was no sex while still bleeding. Mine stopped fairly early, so we gave it a try. It wasn't totally comfortable until 6 weeks or more, though.
-
I wasn't cleared at 6 wks and still had a healing episiotomy/tear at 8 wks...we didn't until 13 wks, but I remember a bee here doing it at like 2 wks with no issue.
-
HELL NO! Hahaha! Tried at maybe 9-10 weeks pp, tried a few more times, weren't successful until 6 months pp.
-
Ha! No, it was more like 11 weeks. I had tons of stitches though.
-
DH was asking for it right at 6 weeks, but I still had stitches that hadn't dissolved. I was so busted up and bruised, I couldn't imagine prior to six!
-
No thank you. We waited at least 12 weeks, maybe more.
-
I had a C section and it was 4 weeks. It was painful for a while though.
-
I thought about it at 8 weeks but just didn't feel ready. Tried at 12 weeks and it was an utter failure. Tried again at 16 weeks and though it wasn't a complete failure it was not enjoyable for me. It didn't stop hurting until a month after I weaned, didn't matter what kind of lube we used.
-
I'm impressed with many of you! It took us a long, long time to get back into the swing of things.
-
We were about 5 weeks out and DYING to DTD. I had a c-section though so we probably could have done it sooner. It was great. That was back when I had a sex drive. lol
-
We did sometime between 3 and 4 weeks, even though I had an episiotomy. It was a fail, but it didn't hurt or anything, we were both raring to go.
-
@Rainbow Sprinkles: we dtd at 4 weeks. No harm no foul.
-
I had two stitches and my bleeding stopped by 2.5 weeks and we DTD then. With the help of some lube it was all good!
-
HELL NO!
My stitches did not dissolve until 7 or 8 weeks and they were always poking me...plus I had pretty heavy bleeding until 8 or 9 weeks pp. I remember my OB talking about BC at the 6 wk appointment and I about laughed in his face. Um, did you not just see the train wreck down there?! I can't remember when we first tried? 3 or 4 mo pp? I remember it hurt a lot and we had to take it slooooow at first... It got better though.
-
You are brave!
-
@lilteacherbee: I feel like it might be ok now for me too if it wasn't for the PP bleeding still going on (it's pretty light but still)-- but I'm still SO TIRED! I also have to figure out the birth control situation... my sister in law's grandma was pregnant at her 6 week PP check-up (yeah, a long time ago...) and stories like that scare me!
-
I think we are ready, but I'm still bleeding at almost 4 weeks pp, so I wanted to wait for that to stop.
-
Uhhh, nope. I think we waited till somewhere around 12 weeks. I was terrified but it was all good
-
@septca: ditto!
I know Tori Spelling didn't wait. Just sayin'...
