 Technically, two questions.

1. When did you have sex after your c-section?

2. Are all forms of sex off limits or are there things you're allowed to do before 6 weeks?

i voted still waiting.....the doctor told me that after 6 weeks you should be able to (at your own comfort). that was almost 5 years ago..lol.....my sex drive flew out the window. but i think the average is 6 wks...

some people are like slinky's ---- not really good for anything....but make you smile when you push them down a flight of stairs.

I had 2 c-sections and we couldn't wait the 6 weeks.  It was about 2 and it really is at your own comfort level.

We waited 4. I wanted to wait longer, but he wouldn't get off my back and quit touching me- so I gave in so I could get a moment's peace. Yup- he was pretty inconsiderate at the time.

about 4 weeks. I was fine and I wanted to. I was scared for pressure on the scar so I was on top

we waited 8 weeks after i had my c-section. i was in a lot of pain from it and i was really sick. plus spending the whole day at the hospital with the twins. my husband was really good about waitting the 8 weeks. he never asked me to do. we had oral sex like a week to two weeks after i had the twins. my hubby was fine with that.

i recovered pretty quickly but he left two days after we got out of the hospital to go offshore for two weeks...so it was about 3 weeks, I probably could have at two weeks. I stopped bleeding and stuff pretty early (sorry if its TMI)

I did 3-4 weeks, but in some ways I wish I had waited. I had stopped bleeding but after I had sex it started again and didnt stop for another few weeks. Was super annoying.
