I tried to have s_x with my DH for the first time after the baby. It has been 3 months since the birth and I figured it wouldn't hurt as bad if I waited longer... NOT TRUE!! It burns so bad!!! What should I do? He harldy touched me and the burning sensation was ridiculous... anyone have advice??

Hi Lavendar - Your message was very timely. My dd is 11.5 weeks old and my dh and I just attempted to have intercourse for the first time last night. He was also barely inside me and we had to stop. It burned and kind of felt like I still had stiches and they were being stretched. I thought it would be uncomfortable, but didn't expect it to hurt that much. We used a lubricant, so that wasn't the issue. I'd also love any advice/support anyone has to give. I'm ready to get back to normal life with my hubby!

Use lot's of lube and also work up to it. Take it a little at a time. remembr you are attempting to stretch brand new skin. Whatever u do do not stop again for another 2 weeks or whatever. Try a little at a time in frequnt but short sessions (you can always finish things up creatively), but if you try once then stop for 2 wks and then try again you won't make progress.

9 months PP and it still hurts me everytime at the beginning. I have to remind him to take it VERY slow at first. My s_x drive really isn't back either, so lots of lube.. blah.
