Sex after childbirth

Sex after childbirth

Following childbirth, having sex for the first time might feel daunting, as your body is in the healing phase. Though it is different for all couples, few mothers observe confinement practices and prefer to wait till the confinement period is over. One should wait till bleeding stops because the wound left in the uterus is still in the healing process.


Several couples assume that they need to wait until the doctor gives their consent after a postnatal check-up. As per Baby center, there are no rules set regarding making love after childbirth, till new mothers are emotionally and mentally ready.

However, few couples have sex within the first month of birth of a baby, but one needs to wait until six months. Meanwhile, couples need to consider contraception as even if they breastfeed and haven’t got periods, it might lead to getting pregnant again. It is very common in not having sex for a few weeks or months. Some mothers might be deprived of sleep as breastfeeding can reduce the desire of having sex.


Moreover, few of them might be suffering from postnatal depression that makes feel the least
interest regarding sex. It is better to have a conversation with your doctor regarding the same. But if you had a cesarean, one might get anxious because of the scar.


Thereby perceptions about one body might change after pregnancy and takes some to recover from the pregnancy stage. Several women worry that their husband might ignore them as they’re not attractive anymore. So, it is better to strike a conversation with your husband and avoid having a communication gap. The best solution is to practice pelvic floor exercise which helps in bringing back one ‘s vaginal muscular tone.
