C-Section moms.....???  

post #1 of 8

Did it hurt when you DTD the 1st time after, and where did it hurt??

I want to but I'm scared, and DH is being so patient, but REALLY wants to DTD as well.

For me it didn't hurt at all. We went really slow and made sure that no pressure was put on my stomach. Just relax and don't push yourself. If you aren't ready then it is more likely to hurt IMO.

It didn't hurt anymore than my *very* first time We used lots of lube and went slow, but I was 3 mos pp when we DTD. Poor DH

we had no problem and DTD after only a week or two. Lots of lube is Key!

No problems here!

The main issue can just be typical breastfeeding/pp dryness. I feel like a nut for always posting about this, but I recommend an oil, like olive oil much more than a commercial lube. That helps a lot!

We DTD about 2-3 weeks after CS and it felt a little different, but as long as no pressure was on my belly it didn't really hurt.

Thanks mama's, I needed to hear it from some others.

I decided to feel things out myself in the 'lower region' today in the shower. Since I was used to doing this from charting before anyway, it wasn't unusual for me, and things felt fine. I think I was just worried that he might some how put pressure on my incision. kwim?

Thanks again!!!
