Two weeks, and it was fine, absolutely no pain. If I had felt that it would hurt the scar at all then there would have been no way.

We did it at 6 weeks but only because I thought we were meant to in case the GP asked if there were any problems. It wasn't great as we were both nervous and I laid a tshirt across my scar so dh didn't touch it. No pain below.

About 2 weeks, dh couldn't believe his luck, but in a way that meant no scar chafing Smile

Certainly no way as keen after vb.

2 weeks here too. Agree find a position where theres no rubbing in scar area though.

6 weeks.

I just waited for the 6 week post natal check so I knew it should be ok.

No pain, but leaking boobs Grin.

Yep, 2 weeks here too, agree, be careful around the scar area.
