Anyone...ummm..feel like sex yet? - Page 2  

post #21 of 26
Wow! this is a great thread.

After my c-section 4 years ago, I had to initiate at 7 weeks. I was not very interested physically but needed the emotional connection. Not that DH wasn't interested, he just wanted me to be the one to get things going.

Apparently, my VBAC was super sexy. Poor DH is suffering so as we wait for the green light from the ob at 6 wks PP. And of course, I'm constantly giving him a peep-show w/BF. We DTD A LOT more during this pregnancy. My doctor really encouraged it and I read a lot of books pregnancy and birth books that made me feel confident and sexy, so he was soooo not ready for a dry spell.

Honestly, I wasn't really horny after my first until 14 mos. PP when my period came back. I liked everything about not cycling except the lowered libido. Also w/EBF and a needy 4-year-old, I feel a bit touched-out.

I sure do!! It is weird, never had my libido back this quick(well except for after my first kiddo). We dtd at 3 weeks, I was ready at 2 but we tried, and it was still sore, so we waited. I think I am happier than I have been in a long time,a nd that helps too.

Actually *thought* about it yesterday for the first time... I am 3.5 weeks pp. "Down there" still doesn't feel ready though. Plus, I can't even think about having anyone touch my breasts other than baby. Hubby is being really sweet about waiting and he just tells me how beautiful I am. I'm surprised that he finds the boobs sexy during bfing, but maybe I shouldn't be. I just feel too much pain to feel very sexy at all. Hopefully that'll pass soon.

My dh told me the other night that he wasn't going to push, he just wanted me to know he wants me when I'm ready. I thought it was nice that he would know I'd be wondering if he was still attracted to me.

19 days pp and dtd twice yesterday. dh was super excited- he didn't want to believe it was actually going to happen until it did.

i was a little sore, but not bad. it felt great to be able to be so close to my dh after the big belly and all. i am bleeding a little more today... it had pretty much stopped.
