OMG steph you must be delirious from the tummy bug lol!!!
You need to wait until your bleeding has stopped which usually takes between 3 and 6 weeks, but as soon as you feel ready after that. Some people don't wait until the bleeding has stopped but there is a greater risk of infection :-))xx

blimey! once you have stopped bleeding and ideally after your 6 week check. we

actually didnt have sex until olivia was 6 months old due to it being so uncomfortable - i had a forceps delivery which made things worse, but and sorry if tmi, but due to hormonal changes you are generally drier down there after childbirth and that made things quite tricky and we had to use extra lubricants! sorry - i did warn tmi!

they say after 6 week check up with doctor, my boyfriend asked me 1 week after birth, i was like hello no, you try pushing a full grown baby out then having sex, told him to wait his hurry! i didnt have sex til 8 weeks after because it hurt, when you do take it steady you wont be fully healed it does take its time xx

im still really sore neway xxx

yes you will be sore, it took me 2 weeks to be able to sit down properly if you have had stitches they can take around 4-6 weeks to heal too. i do wish that a man would just for 1 day be able to go through being heavily pregnant, and for 1 day feel the after effects of birth, they might understand then, but then again women are stronger than men, we can handle it better :P xx
