Anyone DTD yet?

[Kelly1101]

Did this evening for the first time and it actually worked. So much better than after Em's birth.


So, yay

[MaerynPearl]

I want to sooooo bad but no =(

today is my first day without a pad so getting there!

[tribord]

Not yet, but yay! for you guys. So glad it went well. We are thinking maybe next weekend.

[Baby~Braatens~Mama]

Yup! Friday night was our first pp and it wasn't.bad.at.all!

It did sting a little at first, but then YaY! A whole month without and the last three months of awkward, I think we deserved to DTD and have it work so well!

[Amanda_Reyasmom]

Twice.. The first time was 20 days out, and even today at 25 I'm still pretty tender. (Not tender enough to stop me though!) I had a second degree tear and a lot of stitches so easy going wins the race I guess.

[Lit Chick]

We did on Saturday. I had no tears and an easy birth, so it was fine - so much easier than after DS1. But, DH kept hitting my cervix - yuck! I guess that's not back to its usual spot, because even though he's well endowed that's not normally a problem. I hate that feeling.

We did last week and it was perfect. I was expecting pain or something, but it felt like old times.

[Laurski]

I wish!

DD pretty much doesn't sleep, so finding hands-free time has been a challenge. We attempted to yesterday, as she stayed asleep in her bouncy chair after DH was holding her, but she woke up before we could seal the deal. However, it wasn't a *total* loss for me, at least, if you know what I mean...

[Monkey Keeper]

Two days shy of 5w here and not yet. I still was spotting last week. I think I am up to it though nd I've been in the mood quite a few times but still was bleeding.

[RedOakMomma]

A few days shy of 5wks here, too, and I'm still spotting. Too bad, too, because dd is an excellent early-evening sleeper most nights, I'm interested, and dh could be convinced. Ah well...now watch, I'll finally be ready and she'll go through a non-sleeping fussy phase!

We DTD for the first time at 3w PP and have a few times since then, it seriously felt like the very first time all over again "like a virgin!" LOL
But I didn't even have a vaginal birth so it makes no sense! Its gotten a lot better and we've had to actually use lube for the first time! Glad to see everyones feeling better

Yes that! DH was convinced that having a baby was going to wreck my vagina (The ex wife had sections lol)

[birthjunkie27]

Yep! At just under 5 wks pp.

[Thalia]

Still spotting here. So no fun time yet.

My bleeding is much better this time around than after DD#1's birth, and I've really been taking it easy so I can recover well, but it looks like I'm just one of those gals that needs some time for that cervix to close. I also had a 2nd degree tear so maybe it's for the best to spend a little extra time for that to heal well.

I really hope I feel as good as I did after my first birth. For whatever reason, sex felt BETTER after giving birth than it did before. I hope that trend continues!!

[Chloe'sMama]

Have a few times. I spot for at least 6 weeks, but at 5.5, I had not for a few days, so did it. Some spotting afterward each time, but no big deal. A little sensitive where I had stitches.

[LovnMyBoys]

Ok I'm really wanting some, but since the spotting came back again, ds is never not in arms, and I've gotten a cyst in my vagina its not really working for me yet. Apparently my cyst is a randomly occuring inclusion cyst, and it feels a little raw. I'm hoping it goes away, but from what I understand sometimes they don't. I just have to find the time to do some epsom salt soaks and hopefully I'll be getting there soon.

I had the same experience! I had a section and it was tight! I can't explain that one.
It was great, though. We acted like bunnies for a few days and now I'm too tired to think about it.

Totally the same here! I pictured our 'first' time after baby to be all intimate and stuff and sensual, yeah, NOT AT ALL!!!! I think I may cough some of it up to the condom, I've never been a fan of those, and lube, yes, we had to bust that out, and I find that gross too. I can't wait for my IUD!

How long for those who have had this and it went away? Looking forward to that! Maybe I should have filled that codine prescription! lol! (just kidding btw) !

[Galatea]

Finally DTD at 5 weeks. Soooooooo dry and we have never needed lube before so that was not good but at least it worked. Need to kegel.

We attempted this weekend, even though I was feeling really nervous about my tear/stitches. I felt some stinging, tensed up, and then Baby Andrew woke up from his nap. So Andrew was crying, I was wincing, and I think my DH wanted to cry! We're 6 w PP here. Maybe soon, but need the fear to subside more. Who else had a bad tear and are you feeling afraid about re-injury?
