Sex after c section

I’m 3 weeks post partum and have been wondering how long before sex is safe? Not having sec has been really tough so was wondering is it safe to have sex now or should the whole 6 weeks go by before having sex

I tried it at 3 weeks PP with my first and it was so painful that we decided to wait for the full 6 weeks, my first few times were quite painful so now I'm not even attempting it till at least 6 weeks pp.

6 weeks is to avoid risk of infection with the wound in the uterus.

6 weeks for your own safety. i know it’s hard but even 6 weeks is too soon a lot of the time

6 weeks is the *minimum* because think about the fact that it’s placing something foreign near an OPEN wound, you can still be intimate without having sex, just do t take the risk. It’s not just about the risk of imfection, think about how fertile you are now

Dont*

I mean, you really shouldnt until 6 weeks, but I did at 2 weeks, and I’m now absolutely fine 7 weeks after having baby x

Never 😃😃 I am shocked how ladies got the urges 🤔😃 I told my husband never again 🤣🤣 Had my baby 22nd Oct, the plan is not sooner than Christmas or next yr.
