How many weeks after should we be waiting?
LO is 2 weeks and 4 days old, bleeding has stopped and feel fine. Text book labour and delivery no tears/stitches.

Is there still a risk? There is no rush just wanted to ask!

Just try! And then stop if uncomfortable. What risk would there be?

With me, after both mine my clitoris felt too tender to use for at least 4 weeks. Must've got bruised or something - I did wonder if it would ever be the same again, but it turned out fine - sometimes I think it works better now than it did before!

Damn, now I want to know how it went! No not really, just ignore me

Congrats on the textbook labour BTW, isn't it just great when it all goes like it should? Myself, I was feeling insufferably smug about it for months afterwards.

ermm!! It was short but sweet!
We even did the deed again today!! TMI I know!

Yes feeling very smug about my birth as I feel so much more positive about it than my first one! Just so glad I had more support and everything went to plan.

With regards to your name did you birth at home?

Yay! I'm completely happy with TMI as you can probably tell from all the clitoris talk .

Yus, had dd2 at home in water - bliss, almost shockingly easy. dd1 was your typical hospital bollocks, wish I'd been better educated beforehand (about refusing augmentation, hypnobirthing, that kind of thing) instead of just winging it.
