Not wrong in wanting sex. Very wrong to ask her for sex.

I don't think wrong is what your asking. What I think you mean is it ok to have/want sex with your wife 2 weeks after giving birth. I don't think it is the least bit wrong...but is it ok?? NO.. 1st off.. believe it or not, she can get pregnant this soon. It happened to my best friend. She ended up miscarrying because her body wasn't recovered from the 1st pregnancy and she lost her baby. So.. wanting her is normal.. having her is not. There are many other ways of being intimate.. leave the intercourse alone until after her 6 week check up. Even if she didn't have an episiotomy (sp??>) ..dont do it. What she just went thru is quite tramatic. Allow her time to heal.. Cuddle... hold each other... anything except intercourse.

Here is the correct answer. It is never wrong to want to have sex with your wife. However, after giving birth, some damage has been done to her vagina and surrounding areas. Sex prematurely can lead to infections (as well as pregnancy) these infections can be quite severe as the cervix is open and the infection can easily spread to her uterus. 6 weeks is the usual amount of time recommended for healing to take place. However, she may heal faster, so you really only need to wait until her Doctor has given you the go ahead.
Of course, you also need to take her desires into account. I have heard that some women lose interest in sex after giving birth, I wasn't one of them, so waiting the 6 weeks was difficult. And in fact I didn't wait after my first child and I ended up with an infection. So I learned my lesson. If she is willing, there are other ways to satisfy both of your desires without actual intercourse.

Yes, you have to wait 6 to 8 weeks after the birth. There are other things you can do.

No, but I am going to take a guess and say that you want sex more than she does. I mean, besides from being VERY dangerous, she is probably still sore, bloated, and tired. Do not rush her or force her to have sex with you this soon. You are supposed to wait 9 months before you have sex again. I mean, she just carried around a human life for 9 months of her life, she needs to heal. Let her rest up.
Besides, why would sex be on your mind now?? Your wife just gave birth to a beautiful new baby!! Charish it, they grow up quickly!

If you were the one who had just given birth, I bet you anything you would not want to have sex...(intercourse) give yourself a hand job.......six weeks is not that long........come on!!! Think of what physical trauma your wife has been thru....some women may feel if they don't have sex with their partner, that they will not love them....which low self esteem on their part....and if you are a good partner to her, then you would want to wait.....This should be categorized under women's health not men's health!!!!!!! Be considerate.....love your wife, she is not only there for your sexual pleasure....love means many other things also....the sooner you learn that the better off you will be.....By the way congrats on the baby!

It is not wrong to *want* sex with your wife; it would be wrong for you to bug her about it if she says 'no' whenever; and particularly only 2 weeks after her giving birth.
For these situations... use masturbation. It's not the same, and yet it will at least take the edge off... (besides, I would think you know how to pleasure yourself well, so it should at least be fun :)

It's not wrong to want it but you need to think about your wife and not yourself. It would probably hurt and she could get a infection, thats why the doctors say wait 6 weeks. Jerk off and give her a break.

Of course it's not wrong...it's never wrong to want to have sex with your wife! But, I doubt she's up to certain things...but, you know as well as I do, there are ways to get around the things you can't do just yet.

Wrong to want sex with your wife but not wrong to want to make love to her for being such a wonderful woman. Either way, it is right for you to want her enough to do what SHE wants and needs at this time.
