Postpartum sex

Your body is recovering from childbirth . Gynecologists advise to wait between five and six weeks (quarantine), although each couple and pregnancy is different. It can be before or it can be later.

Practice of sex after childbirth

If there have been scars on the perineum due to an episiotomy, or tears have occurred during delivery, it is a good idea to wait a little longer, since penetration could delay healing or even cause infections.

Hormonal changes

After delivery there is a drop in estrogen that can decrease vaginal lubrication, which can cause discomfort. You can use a water-soluble vaginal lubricant; Vaseline compounds adhere to the mucosa and can hide small infections.

With breastfeeding, this situation of dryness continues. In addition, oxytocin is secreted, a stimulant that satisfies your sexual desire.

It should be added that the baby's arrival can also affect a man's libido and even his erection capacity.

Psychological factors

Some mothers are afraid of feeling discomfort or getting pregnant again. The stimulation of other erogenous zones, patience, understanding and a lot of affection are of great importance in this stage. Thus, the first times it would be better to practice oral sex and gradually return to penetration.

There are many women who after giving birth are not happy with their image and therefore avoid sex. Your body is not yet what it was and the flaccidity and fluid retention do not help you look attractive. Take care of yourself, exercise, it will help you to see yourself little by little more beautiful. Pelvic floor exercises help strengthen vaginal muscle.

Your life has changed, you are getting used to the baby and its care. You will spend time focused on it: this makes your sexual appetite in the background.

Benefits of sex for the new mom

Here are the two main advantages of postpartum sex:

  • It favors the recovery of the uterus, causes its contraction and improves its muscle tone.
  • Feeling wanted increases the secretion of endorphins, your self-esteem and strengthens the relationship.
