Hi there! Everyone is different. With
any surgery or procedure it takes a while
to get your body back into shape and there
are others that bounce back sooo quickly
plus that you had a rip, which might lead
to scartissue of course, I am no Dr., just
ask your husband or b/f to take it very
easy for a while, if he ddoes not take it
eaasy with you then it would seem to me
that he does not have much respect for
you. You might also check with the Dr.,
and see if you might have an infection.
Please keep us posted on what you find
out.
Sincerely,
sandy

Hey there, my wife had to be cut with our
first born and of course had to be stiched
up. We could not make love for about
4 months afterwards due to it being to
painfull for her also. (i had to take
matters into my own hands during that
time...Lol). Even after 4 months it was
uncomfortable and/or painful for her at
times. The scar tissue was so
sensitive that it would cause her sharp
pain if I hit it in any way which limited
the positions that we could get into.
That continued for 2 years untill my 2nd
was born. After 2nd was born, it has
stopped causing her pain. Don't know
if 2nd one stretched it back out or what.
My 2nd is now 2 yrs old and still no
further problems. I hope this has
somewhat answered your ?.
On another note, your partner has to be
carefull and patient with you during this
time. If you have sex too early or is
too rough, he will break those stiches and
off to emergency room you go.

Ok, this is mrs. Banditman, lol. The
circumference of our son's head was 18
inches, I had a level 3 episiotomy. Our
daughter's head was only 15 inches around,
so I didn't have to be cut. After our
daughter, things were way different, no
pain, no problems. If you had an
episiotomy, i'd say have a gync check you
out before you start having intercourse
again. Also, do a little exploring on
your own. If a little pressure on your
scar hurts, you're not ready yet.
Now, as for making him "take matters in
his own hands," there are alternatives.
For us "bigger" girls, use what I call
"thunder thighs" ie clench your legs
around him. If he gets the angle right,
it'll work for you, too. Oh! He's
reminding me to remind you to shave first!
Rofl!!
Good luck!

Thanks for your reply. I was beginning
to think maybe the doctor put an extra
stitch or two down there. Hopefully it
will start to feel better soon.
