Sex too early after giving birth?

So I had sex like 3-4 weeks after I gave birth and I’m bleeding down there again. It doesn’t hurt I’m just bleeding. Is that like bad or?

I don’t think it has to do with intimacy as I kept bleeding off and on until I was 6 weeks or so

Maybe it would be best to call your doctor just to have yourself checked out of your worried about it but if it’s not painful it might just be from the actual birth. I second was Sarah said, I still bled a couple of times until I was past 6 weeks pp and only had sex after 6 weeks

I was the same but my midwife said that bleeding is fine as long as there are no clots and it’s not heavy / soaking through a pad

You have a giant wound the size of a dinner plate inside you. The point of avoiding sex for 6 weeks is to avoid infection. Overdoing it with sex or heavy lifting or anything else will reopen the wound and bleeding will resume. Give yourself a chance to heal

@Baled Potato yes but the punani want what she want 😭

Being cozied up to my man at night got me impatient ahah 😭

@Faith IM DEAD 😂😂😂😂

In the UK there is no longer guidelines for how long you should wait, so the 6 weeks thing has gone now

I did it at 5wks pp and had some spotting after

@Charley all I needed to hear

Chill out now you have to wait some more

@Faith you do understand that the size of your placenta is the internal wound you have in you. Your body is a temple. Just wait and be patient you don’t want to get an infection because you seriously can. I’d recommend the doctor if it doesn’t stop after some time. You could hurt yourself
