We had our child near the end of Jan we had a babay girl. We are both wondering when it will be safe to have sex again. She got the bikini cut.

When ever the bleeding stops from the vagina. Some people wait until 6 weeks but some Dr.s say nothing in the vagina until the bleeding stops.

My doctor told me 6-8 weeks... The cut really doesn't matter though.... The stiches inside will disolve and the staples should have come out by now.. but it takes 6-8 weeks for all the stitches to dissolve.. and she should be or have already gone back to the doc for the postpartum check up around 6-8 weeks after the birth,, At that time, the doctor will check her over and give the green light....

It is eight weeks. Just two more weeks than a regular birth. I know because I had both of my children be c-section. Also, It is very uncomfortable too because of all of the stitches they have to use in order to connect each layer back together. Hope this answered your question.

I had a c-section and was told to wait 6 weeks before having sex.

I would actually ask your wife's OB/GYN. Everybody is different.
Although you may be eager to start up your sex life again, c-sections are very painful and take a while to heal. It depends on how your wife feels and if you get the green light from her OB/GYN. After my c-section it took us about two months before I felt ready.

What were her doctor's instructions when she was released from hospital? For one thing a C-section is MAJOR abdominal surgery and it will take at least a year for her to recover FULLY from the surgery, so I suggest you follow her doctor's instructions...unless you want her back IN the hospital for a hysterectomy.

Usually about three months-I have had to wait twice! It can be shorter or longer period-just depends on when the doctor clears her. I hope everything is well and healed now-enjoy your child!

That would depend on what her doctor told her. It should be after she sees him for her check up. She not only had a baby but she also had major surgery.

After 40 days...Puerto Rican women do what is called a "cuarentena". Is good, and safer.
