6 wks Today

Hey There Ladies! Today is my 6wk anniversary! Yes the big day!! At least I thought... I have been bleeding off and on. Not tons, but sometimes enough to fill a panty shield. I read that you may have bright red blood as the stitches are disolving. Has anyone-else experienced this? I know that my sutures are disolving now, because the ones that started to come through my incisions, that I couldn't cut off since they were too short to get a good hold of, have come out today, and the part that was in my body, well you could see that it was decayed looking. Really weird... Of course, having stitches that are in you, come partially out when you weren't expecting that, well that is weird too. OK, here is the question... Yes, some more TMI, but... Can I still have sex??? The doctor said 6 wks! I had my check up at 4wks and he said that everything looked good. I also bled the day before I went to see him, and I got a clean bill of health. Talk to me girls!

Can I still have sex?

Hi Ocean Lover, yesterday was my 6 wk anniversary too. I had my drs appt yesterday and he said I was healing well, but I still had some stitches, so NO SEX for another 2-4 weeks! I was cleared for everything else, though. I think I would call since if there are still some stitches I would assume there is some risk for infection.

Dear Ocean
The best advise is talk w/ur doc. Better safe than sorry.
