Postpartum sex

I just had sex for the first time, I already had my 6 week checkup and was all good to go but now I feel empty and lost. I thought I wanted to do it and I initiated it too but neither one of us finished and it was just scary to do and I know my husband isn’t mad at me or upset but I feel like I let him down and he keeps reassuring me and is being very kind and understanding about it which is how he is and I love him so much but I still just feel not okay I don’t know how to explain it, is this normal?

Thas normal. I had sex at like 3 weeks lowkey but if u ain’t feelin it then Thas fine. Ur body is still recovering

lol 8 weeks over here and haven’t even attempted- afraid to get pregnant again lol- I got pregnant on one try in a month 🤣

@Lauren omg same! 🤣 just got my period for the first time post baby 2 days ago - mind you it’s heaviest thing I’ve ever had- and I’m like oh goshhhhh so nervous , hubby has tried twice and I just offer something else 🤣

I know the feeling. I couldn’t even get far enough to call it sex. And the pain was unbearable and still is days later. Ur not alone

@Lauren yes this is what’s keeping me from it too 🥲 mama needs a break I don’t wanna be pregnant again for awhile. I can’t use hormonal birth control, my options are limited
