At first, chose comfortable positions that let you control penetration and avoid putting pressure on the abdomen or your incision. Using a water-based lubricant (e.g.: K-Y, ASTROGLIDE, etc.) can make lovemaking more enjoyable.
You should not use Vaseline as it may cause vaginal irritation and damage the condom. To help increase muscle tone, resume your Kegel exercises: contract, and release vaginal muscles. Practice these exercises many times during the day.
9- When will I get my period again?
For nursing mothers, the menstrual cycle usually resumes once nursing stops. The timing is different depending on how long you breastfeed, and whether or not you supplement with bottles. For non-nursing mothers, menstruating will usually start 3 to 8 weeks after childbirth.
10- What type of birth control should I use?
As soon as you start having sexual intercourse, you should use a condom if you don’t want to become pregnant until long term contraception has been chosen: oral contraceptives (the Pill), an intrauterine devices, Depo-Provera or sterilization (vasectomy or tubal ligation).
Breastfeeding is not a suitable means of contraception. For non-nursing mothers, oral contraceptives may be taken as early as the third week after delivery.
Talk to your health practitioner while you are still pregnant to find out which contraceptive method is right for you.
