It totally depends on your preferences and how much time has passed post delivery. First minimum 15-20 days are very crucial as healing and recovery is going on. Ideally 1&1/2 months you should refrain from it in my opinion. If you have strong feelings for having sex, it will be easier than your partner only wishes. Because postpartum our hormones refrain us from sex. But if you have strong feelings, you have better secretions for lubrication and also your vagina gets a bit dilated as a result of your feelings. If you don't have feelings, then use of lubrication will be mandatory. Then you have to start doing foreplay so that you will start getting lubricated. Also try for clitoral stimulation for better results. Having sex should be a pleasure and not a pain at all. If so you can land up in Vaginismus. If you face any difficulty, consult me or any Sexologist near you.😊

I'm a new mother struggling with postpartum depression, and I feel ashamed to ask for help. How can I overcome the stigma and seek support for my mental health? @Natasha Singh
Anonymous-1d
You shouldn't feel ashamed. It's ok to feel this way. Asking for help doesn't make you weak, infact it shows your strength that u r taking therapy to fight for your mental health.
It's always good to talk to an expert about this. it will reveal certain things that you may not be aware of and it will result in you taking actions towards your solution. Be positive and see what happens rather than concluding that nothing will happen..there is no question of feeling ashamed! You can use this platform too to make a start. There are Drs, mental health experts, join their community a ND ask your questions to start with. Tc, Preetha

What foods can help with postpartum depression and mood swings? @Drhimabindu
Hey there, I am Pragya Arora, a clinical psychologist. Foods rich in omega 3 fatty acids such as walnuts, fish and flaxseeds can help with mood regulation. Incorporate lots of fruits and vegetables to support your mental well being. While a balanced diet is essential, you can further consult with me for personalised advice and strategies to tackle postpartum depression

mare life ma tension h Or boby ma weakness rhti h mare upar necha ans jana sa saas cadhti h
Apne symptoms ko dekhte hue, yeh anxiety aur physical weakness ki taraf ishara kar sakte hain. Doctor se mil kar medical check-up aur appropriate treatment lena zaroori hai. Saath hi, sehatmand khana, exercise aur relaxation techniques adopt karne se madad mil sakti hai.
