Avatar f tn Question Laddies , how long did you wait to have sex again after having your baby ?
Avatar f tn My baby girl is 4 weeks old today and we tried having sex last night and it still was uncomfortable and became slightly painful after 10mins and we had to stop.
Avatar n tn this mite seem like a crazy question but can it hurt the baby if i have rough sex in 11 weeks pregnant and when me and ny boyfriend have sex its a little rough and after we get done my stomach kinda hurts it feels like im cramping at the bottom of my stomach???
Avatar f tn I am pregnant with my second baby right now, my first is about to be 5 years old and sex after having her was still great, I mean you have to wait a lil while before you do it again but once you're clear to have sex again it should feel the same!
Avatar f tn Who all has felt a change in your man feeling distant or whatever. I try to even get dressed up to get his attention buy I feel I am getting no where . My baby is two months so we can have sex buy he don't try. I put on a sexy outfit for bed and he did tell me I looked sexy and we did have sex . He just don't realize how hard it can be to dress up when I'm trying to get use to having a baby and maintaining a house. I just feel depressed!
Avatar f tn We started having sex about 5 to 6 weeks after I had my baby n my hubby took it slow to see how things would go first n it was not painful at all. I did feel like a virgin again but in a good way.
5492463 tn?1368752646 With my first we did it once around 5 weeks. It hurt so we didn't try again for a couple more weeks. If you feel your ready, then be prepared with lube and barrier method birth control (condom, diaphragm, etc.) or spermicide. You really don't want to get pregnant again too soon after having a baby!
Avatar f tn Does it hurt when you have sex again for the first time after having a baby say 1 month later ?
Avatar n tn I would definitely look for more info.. I will sometimes use baby diaper rash cream after sex when it's painful and it works for me, but I don't know that that's the same kind of pain..
Avatar f tn t produce as much lubrication on my own so foreplay has to be longer and we still use a good water based lube. helps us a ton and I want sex a lot!
Avatar f tn Hello, Painful sexual intercourse, called dyspareunia in medical terminology is not an uncommon occurance after having a baby (even though it's been 2 yrs) and C-section. Are you Nursing? Does the little one still wake up through the night or sleep w/ you? Along w/ adding some lubricant, you may want to try different positions as this will help you to relax (enjoy) it more, in turn adding your own lube!
2194701 tn?1432394206 I sat with an ice pack on my lady parts last night... I called the doctor today and a nurse said I should avoid having sex (I've also been having intermittent contractions). She said it shouldn't be painful so I'm not sure.
8550901 tn?1400740690 Hello I haven't had sex in a while like the last time I had sex was a month in a half ago and today I decide to have sex and it was so painful and after sex it was even worse that I had to go straight to the bath to see if I felt Better. Is this normal or is it because I have a long time without having sex? Anybody else???
Avatar f tn It was super painful going in and burned a little.
Avatar f tn Sex hurt me for a while after I had my son, I couldn't fully enjoy it until like 6 or 7 months after I had him. I did have stitches, healed up nicely nothing was wrong but it was still painful..
4111887 tn?1355368506 I'm 19+6 Weeks and sex has gotten to painful to have. :( Tried tonight but it feels like I'm way to tight! Anyone else having this problem?
5739386 tn?1378836460 A nice cold beer with my honey.. that has to definitely be the one thing I miss the most!
Avatar f tn Its perfectly normal and will go away after birth. I find it easier to have sex with a lot of foreplay and going slow.
Avatar f tn I had a paragrad Copper T IUD for 10 years (the max) and it was amazing. Non hormonal and the last 4 years or so my periods were every other month. Heavier periods and cramping, but no pregnancy risk due to forgotten pill or missed shot appointment. Occasionally (and depending on position) my bf could feel it during sex. I thought I had felt it move/readjust a couple times after sex but it wasn't painful. Had it removed in late January and was pregnant by late April.
Avatar f tn Hi crystal. I did read your other post too. I think that after having a baby, the dynamics between a couple really change. Some are ready for it and others take longer to adjust. Your husband is adjusting. I do think you have to force the issue. Give him your baby girl and go lay down. For like 2 solid hours. I had this issue a bit with my first baby. My husband was a nervous nelly with the baby and wasn't really helping. I was exhausted.
Avatar n tn Yes ive tried putting pillows to hold my big belly but it still not a good feeling,n after having sex I just feel my stomach so hard!
Avatar f tn A lot of women get pregnant right after they have a baby your still fertile during that time
Avatar f tn I had zero libido during pregnancy and got it back right after giving birth but sex was painful for a long time. Very frustrating. I only had two months of enjoyable sex before I got pregnant again and have no libido again. I feel your pain lol.
Avatar n tn That's a load of bull. Baby will not die from you having sex I. The first trimester unless you have complications. If a nurse told you that then you must be experiencing some sort of complications during your pregnancy. I'm about to be a mother of 5, I have a great obgyn who is extremely knowledgeable an has both mine and baby's best interest at heart. The only time j was told to refrain from sex was with my 4th baby and that was due to a threatened miscarriage from spotting.
Avatar f tn The first time (or three) may be a bit tight or painful if you got stiches because the skin needs to stretch again so use lots of lube. I was the rare case that healed incorrectly and I have a 1/2 inch skin tag-like thing that caused me pain during sex for the first 6 months after. But that's uncommon. And now that I know I can be prepared and get it fixed this time if necessary.
Avatar f tn So after having sex my lower back is killing me so bad :( and my stomach is so hard.
