How many of us October mamas are back to having sex? How are you finding it? Anyone masturbating again?

I'm a November mummy and lasted 4 weeks 🙈🙈

@Kirstie haha get it girl! How are you finding it?

Yep! Had sex 5 weeks after c section and having it every other day 🤦🏼‍♀️ I think we appreciate more since having a baby xx

Yeah was a bit nervous the 1st time but it didn't hurt so all good lol x

👀👀🙅🏼‍♀️🤣 No idea how someone got sex. 9 weeks pp and no plans for sex. I had 2nd degree tear and while that healed well, I don't feel like it is 100% down there, so won't risk any damage or tears re-opening plus I now got a hemorroid weirdly appeared only now so no action in the near future 🙅🏼‍♀️🙅🏼‍♀️ Desire is there definitely, but just physically need more time plus how could we even plan it with a baby?

We tried but it felt odd inside, maybe it’s my brain but yes that sums it up 😂

had sex around 7 weeks pp used protection then at my boys 8weeks jabs got in contraception and still use protection too be extra careful but didn’t hurt at all i was scared cuz i had a grade 2 year without any stitches so thought it was going to hurt but it didn’t

@Gabi same tbh I had a c-section and feel like my body feels still in the thick of recovery, plus turns out I’ve got a slight prolapse… not sexy! And while the desire is there, we’re being patient

I love that we're all at different stages! We did at about 10 weeks pp but haven't since, it is hard to find the time! All totally great and valid though🙌

@Gabi I'm so glad I read your comment. I'm the same. 9 weeks. 2nd degree, or 2b as the midwife team said. Literally took 5 people, 3 midwives and 2 doctors to have a look at me and decide what to do and whether to wheel me to theatres 😧. It has healed don't get me wrong but so far the idea of sex is still a bit 😐. Although I don't have much desire either but I think it's because I'm nervous.

@Bethan oh bless you. If it helps, I had s 2nd degree tear with my first, had a few doctors come to check me as they thought it could be 3rd degree, but when we did have sex it was fine, completely painless! Equally, there's no rush at all and totally fine to not want it yet, it's still so early x
