Sex postpartum

I wouldn't go for any penetration at a week. Risk is of infection more than anything, cervix isn't closed and uterus has a massive wound healing. Orgasm will also trigger some bleeding just so ya know, whether there is penetration or not. I didn't make it the full 6wk after either of my babies lol but did wait at least 3 weeks and only after he showered and no spermies cuz you don't want Irish twins lol

You have a dinner plate sized wound in your uterus. Any orgasm is going to cause possible damage to your tissues. And penetration is an absolute no. I'd really wait at minimum 4 weeks but they say not for 6 weeks for a reason. Really not worth the risk of infection and or hemorrhage.

lol love that and what about with condoms?

Condoms don't change the fact that you have a huge wound. I'm not judging I just want you to be safe.

I get you I’m just new at all this fun stuff 😭

I have stitches down there and I can't. It hurts. I want to have sex so badly and I have a lot of sexual frustration. I literally can't even rub one out because I don't want any infections. Augh. I cry a lot bc of this and it's not fun at all. I want to wait because I don't want to end up in the E.R for doing something stupid. I'm genuinely frustrated and sad though I don't even feel like a full human .

@Brianne thank you for stating the clear facts. Not even my nurses told me I have a dinner plate sized wound. And I didn't know about the orgasm part. Which sucks. I feel like bashing my head against the wall multiple times bc I cannot do it with anyone. I'm hella sad. I don't want an infection just for sex it's absolutely not worth it to me. I been eating chocolates though to calm down.

currently two weeks post partum and the sexual frustration is driving me up a wall lol. i keep begging my partner for ANYTHING just to ease the frustration but he’s better at abiding by the rules than i am and keeps reminding me six weeks six weeks lol.
