Hi
I had what the midwife described as a small episiotomy on delivery 13 days ago, and so far as i can tell it's healing well. I've not looked at it (the thought makes me feel a bit funny,) but have felt it and it feels neat and slightly solid which i guess is scar tissue? Not had a good prod though; dh and I were taking advantage of the lo being asleep last night and th I'm getting more and more horny (apologies if tmi ).
At the moment my bleeding is still tailing off, so full sex is off the cards but i wanted to ask - how long should i really wait after the delivery/stitches, assuming bleeding stops? Will it actually hurt/there be a nasty shock when we can again? Can we do other things in the meantime - specifically would orgasm do anything bad to the area now 13 days healing have passed?
Sorry for the extremely personal qs, I'm just going up the walls not feeling able to do anything like that at the moment..
