[quote=Anonymous]I think a lot more women will have the “ready for (and wanting) sex at six weeks/out with friends for a glass of wine at four weeks/not miserable” experience when we do something drastic about postpartum care in this country. Normalize night nurses/have postpartum doulas covered by health plans. Have insurance companies required to cover pelvic floor PT. Make maternity leave mandatory. Subsidize childcare. I know women who didn’t even get a grudging referral for pelvic PT until they’d been incontinent for a full year!! A year peeing my pants I wouldn’t feel like having sex either! Waiting so long also means a woman isn’t on maternity leave and gets to schedule her appointments around all her other commitments. We do this by having a stingy and unsupportive system and then wonder at the outcomes.[/quote]
