How long is long enough to wait after birth of a baby to have sex again? Do you have to wait for the 6 week check up after to do it?

I think you have to wait 4 weeks. Or it depends if you have a c-suction. You should ask your doctor.

Just a Thought

I don't know how long you have to wait, but you should wait a little while anyway. After you have a baby it is extremely easy to get pregnant again! I think it has something to do with estrogen levels or something. Or maybe your ovaries didn't have fun on their vacation! Laughing

good luck!

I'd wait. For the healing process...
