Some new moms start having sex early after giving birth. Most don’t. This is the question you might not ask your best friend. Check out this poll instead!
When did you start having sex after birth..?
We all heard about the moms that just gave birth and then went right back to their usual sex life just as if nothing happened. Good for you (if you exist…)!
For the rest of us, giving birth, breastfeeding, and simply being a new mom can affect the love life for a shorter or longer period of time. But it might not be something we discuss among friends, even if we probably would feel better by doing so!
So, instead of talking to your friends, you can use this poll. (And then talk to your friends about the results of the poll, maybe!) Lots of women, and who knows, maybe some men too, have already answered. Over 7000 votes!

Why is there no “after a few days” alternative? That’s when we got back to having sex…
Sorry. Good for you, if it worked for you. :-)
