I just recently had 2 beautiful baby boys
and was wondering when it was safe to
start having sex after my c-section..

Congratulations!! When were they born?!
How big were they?! When do we get to see
pics?! Sorry, I've just never known anyone
with twin boys!
"Safe" just means when the risk for
infection drops. Whether you had them
naturally or by c-section, the designated
time line is 6wks. Always ask your doctor
first, but I (meaning MY opinion, aka NOT
a doctors, lol) would say it's safe after
you quit bleeding.
Personally, I did it 5wks afterward (I had
quit bleeding and needed to relieve some
stress, lol) and I was on my back and
didn't move much because I knew it would
hurt too badly. Just a little tip when you
do decide to do it, don't move too much,
you just did A LOT of work carrying and
delivering babies, it's time for him to do
some work, lol.
