Sex postpartum?

When did you start consistently having sex or other intimate time postpartum? And I mean -realistically-, not this “we couldn’t even wait the six weeks 🙈” crowd

consistently, probably at 2 months. we started right away at 6 weeks but it took some time to feel normal again

We started around 5.5 weeks and it was pretty consistent from the start. Now we have had dry spells at other times due life stress, relationship strain, etc.

First time was after the 6 week mark. But we didn’t actively get into it like we were prior pregnancy up until like 5-6 months PP. I’m saying like in the beginning once a week or non. Then back to 2-4 times a week months later. Breastfeeding also takes your sex drive away too. so that helped stop us.

My last baby. It took a while. I had to find myself feeling that way for my partner again. To be honest the way the pregnancy went and the support i had. I felt like i had to build that back up. Idk i feel like i had to feel myself in that way again after my baby as born.

6 -8 weeks this is because I couldn’t have much s3x pregnant because of pain & pelvic rest. I had a c section was still painful to begin with but I had wanted to have it even though I wasn’t confident r feeling my best Soon as baby was born I honestly was really wanting that connection with my husband. But it’s not everyday - I’m talking like once a week x

honestly like 6 months and probably longer. i just didn’t want to i was exhausted constantly and had the baby 95% of the time 🤷🏻‍♀️
