The title makes it look as though I want to have sex while doing yoga, and while this sounds fun, that's not quite what I mean (puts a whole new meaning on downward dog...).
Anyway, I'm 6 weeks postpartum tomorrow (Wednesday 3rd Oct). My labour was quick but I suffered a 3rd degree tear as well as a labia tear - not to mention the fact that I took a VERY strange reaction to gas and air and morphine, but that's another story...
Despite feeling that I'd never be able to use my foof in any capacity ever again for the first couple of weeks, I now feel completely back to normal and very comfortable down there. I usually (very luckily) heal quite quickly and this was no different.
So, I've been feeling a tad amorous of late and am ready to get back in the sheets as well as wanting to get back onto my yoga mat. So I asked my health visitor if this was ok and she said it was absolutely fine as long as I felt ok and ready. Yes to both.
Then, I had an unrelated doctors appointment and asked her the same question. She recommends that I wait 8 weeks to commence both but thinks it's great I feel that I'm healing. I understand that she's the professional and I should listen to her but I've looked and felt my nether regions and it all seems fine not to mention the fact that I feel good and ready.
Anyone have any similar experiences or can advise what I should do?
