How was the wait for your husband?
Were you scared to start up again?
PS. I know you're supposed to wait at least 6 weeks

5 to 6 wks. There is nothing to be scared of. I don't recall my husband having that much of a problem w/waiting, he was as exhausted as I was, 'cause I made him help me with all the round the clock feedings.

We waited the 6 weeks and it felt kind of awkward. So, we waited another week and then it felt okay. My husband was so busy with our new baby that he didn't miss it too much. He didn't complain about having to wait and before we knew it, the 6 weeks had gone by.

After my first baby I took the doctors advice and waited for 6 weeks.
My second, I waited for 8 weeks, due to the fact i was still bleeding.
( I am not in to letting my husband swim that river)
But it is all up to you. I would give my body time to heal but then again that is completely up to you. Just obey your body signs. If you feel you are ready to start back up again, then by all means DO IT. If not, then wait.
My husband understood each of my decisions. He dealt with it just fine.

After my fourth baby i only waited about 2 1/2 weeks but that's because I felt good. Go with what feels right for you...but don't rush into it...you are actually suppose to wait 6 weeks until everything is healed up but if you feel ready then go for it!! It was a little hard for hubby but hopefully your's is understanding-for gosh sake a baby just came out of you!! If your hubby is in desperate need-there are other ways to please him rather then intercourse! Good luck!

6 weeks is what the doctor usually says. However, it is excruciating for your partner to wait that long. I don't think my husband could ever wait. (we had 2 kids) We always ended up trying before the 6 weeks. And it hurt like mad! It felt like you were being cut down there. But you know...

I think it was 3 or 4 weeks I had a c-section so I was kinda scared at first that my cut would just split open but after I got adjusted to it,everything was just fine,lol!!!
