Sex after birth. I have birth at 28 weeks and I finally stopped bleeding and having discharge. She is 4 weeks. Would my body have already healed because I didn’t go to term?

Painful intercourse after birth: is it normal?
After giving birth, sex may be a little painful or uncomfortable. Don't panic, this is perfectly normal!
- The majority of women who have just given birth experience pain in the vagina during their first intercourse.
- Your vagina is less flexible after giving birth.
- The longer you go without intercourse, the more likely you are to experience pain.
- The pain can be physiological, but it can also be related to the pressure you put on yourself to have sex. Try to relax and go for caresses or massages at first, it's a great way to start!

Ok Im in a fresh new relationship after a 21 year marriage. So my boyfriend is the biggest IV ever been with. Now after 2 an half months been together, it's kinda painful having sex but once we start pain gos away. I'm not on any birth control, an we had sex when I was ovulating. An I'm so post to start in 5 days I haven't had any pms system.

I have the same pain issue and it goes away after a minute but I think he is just bigger then what I’ve had and that is what is causing it

Is it normal for cramps during the first period after birth to be more painful than they were before pregnancy?

The aftermath is so terrible. Just as miserable. I have all of those things too except hemorrhoids. I also have very bad trapped gas from the c section. Lord the recovery is rough

Natural birth feels like trying to pass a big 💩. It’s the after birth that’s painful and uncomfortable to me

32 weeks and I’m having strong painful contractions after sex, I can even talk during them it hurts so bad and I’ve had 6 in the past 20 minutes? Can sex cause this? What do I do, I’ve tried switching positions, warm bath and water so far
Noel
It can happen. It sounds like some type of Braxton hicks from orgasm and hormones reacting... try to take it easy and relax... as long as your water didn't break you should be good.

Sex lasted about 5 seconds bc the pain started as soon as we started so I didn’t even get that far into it

Ok mamas like any other first time mom I’ve got some big questions!! If you delivered vaginally, how has that impacted sex after you healed? What did your partners think? Did it feel different for you? How long did you wait and was it painful the first time after birth? Sincerely, a young first time mommy. #firsttimemom #advice
Bri
First timer here too, would love to know this info as well!

Not sure what my husband thought, but it did feel different for me felt like I was tighter than usual. But I waited like 3mths or more due to my traumatic experience. I was in a depressed 😔 time not trying to bring fear but I lost my baby due to a placenta abruption at 28 wks and delivered vaginally.

WARNING SENSITIVE TOPIC: SEX. Looking for advice or share your experiences if you are comfortable. My husband I had sex after not having it the past 3 weeks. I'm almost 31 weeks. Last time it was extremely painful but he wanted to to try it so I thought I would give it a shot. It was extremely painful. Literally feels like my cervix is being pulled and stretched. We even used lube thinking maybe it would help (which it didn't). No wonder they say sex induces labor. Not sure how I'm gonna go another 9 weeks. I also want to make my husband happy. Would love to hear how you are coping especially if your not having sex anymore. I'm really worried about how our sex life is gonna change after baby and also if sex will be enjoyable or how much it changes after you have given birth. I'm worried and would love to hear from you mama's.

Because of some issues with placenta previa and bleeding my boyfriend and I switched to focusing on foreplay and oral and i know it kept him satisfied, I miss vaginal but also If you are open to it try anal ? Just a thought , I actually got to where I enjoyed it although at 31 weeks the last time we did it it was pretty uncomfortable for me... Idk it's rough for sure but I just keep thinking this won't last forever and we will be able to resume normal activity sooner than later , hang in there girl!!! ❤️
