[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tried at 6 weeks after my first and it was horribly painful. Tried again at 8 weeks and same thing. 10, 12, 14 weeks same. Finally at 5 months PP I went to get a second opinion at a different OB and turns out I was stitched up incorrectly and essentially had a flap of skin/scar tissue partially covering the opening of my ya know so it was getting micro tears every time we tried which felt like paper cuts over and over. I had to get an episiotomy and restitched! All was fine 6 weeks after that.

Second kid I was ok by 8 weeks.[/quote]

Ugghhhh that's terrible! I'm so sorry. I had an episiotomy after my first and right after stitching me up the OB decided he didn't like the stitching and took them out and stitched me up again. It was a long and miserable recovery, but I guess I'm glad I got restitched?!? I was super nervous the first time after my crap experience but I actually didn't have any pain. I'm so sorry you went through this and had to have surgery to repair it. [/quote]
