Ive heard that you become looser after having a baby, and because theres so much strecthing there, that it never really goes back to what it was before. This will definitely affect sex, because of course you're looser, so you won't feel as much. But exercises such as kegals can help with this problem somewhat.

Hello, I have to say I had my son 7 years ago and I actually got tighter. I was always pretty tight but it seems after I had him it got tighter. I'm sure every women is different.

I read this article in parenting magizine it was something this girl submitted that like she got pregnant then her husband went over seas and while he was gone she had the baby and liek she didnt cheat on him or anything but like when he got back they had sex and he divorced her because he accused her of cheating because she was so loose and he wouldnt accept the answer it was because of the baby

Wow...Ok, look, I had my son 5 years ago and even the first time my husband and I had sex afterwards, we didn't notice a difference. I was concerned about it being "looser" and he said it was just the same as it had always been. Most women go right back to normal. Your body is very good at repairing itself, especially in such an important area.

The time that it takes to get back to normal is different for everyone. How big the baby is, your natural elasticity and muscle control....Kegel exercises do help a *lot*. They help during delivery, too, so it's a good idea to start them when you're still pregnant.

This so called "man" you mentioned from that article was probably just an problem looking for an excuse to get out of his marriage.

I feel the same way as the rest of them who say that they were either the same or tighter. I was a bit tighter than I was before. I could really tell and it was sore the first 5 times I had sex as well!! I also did kegels fora long whlie there. It's where you tighten and losen those muscles down there. I don't think they did much since I hadn't done them really long or anything. So I think I was a bit tighter after having my son!
