So, the first question I asked my doctor was, "When can I have sex?" Before surgery I had a pretty active, and regular sex life, and now that I'm 7 days out, I think that enough time has passed and I don't see why I shouldn't be going back to my regular life. I have some incision pain but it's mininal. I stopped taking pain meds 4 days ago. My doctor said that as long as I don't have pain, and I don't do anything that will hurt that there's no reason why I can't have sex. Granted, there will be no swinging from the chandeliers or anything, but with some creativity I think I'm ready. My girl on the other hand, thinks I'm going to break and is totally against it. She's all, it's too soon. You just had surgery last week and you're not ready. Trust me, EVERY part of me except the incision on my navel is ready! Even with a doctor's note she's not trying to hear it.

If this is a TMI question, I understand, but how long did you wait?

Hi At the orientation seminar and again in the paperwork I got from my surgeon it said sex was okay as soon as you felt comfortable having it. We ended up waiting 2 weeks in part because I had a drain in for 9 days.

Yea my surgein told me as soon as I feel up to it

I feel bad. I only waited 4 days and it didn't hurt at all. We were just careful!

dont feel bad, I wouldnt

My doctor told me it takes about 6 to 8 weeks for everything to heal. We didn't ask the doctor when we could have intercourse again, now my husband wants to wait all those weeks! He says is bad to have sex when you have had surgery and you haven't heal well. Let's see how long will he really wait

i did it two weeks after i came home and noting happend

I had surgery On a Monday and was ready to go and did on Wednesday. I was pretty lucky. Only took extra strength tylonel on the day I got home and nothing after that. It was a walk in the park for me after 4 c sections.
