Feeling a little different

I'm 7 weeks post op and my DH and I were cleared for sex at my 6 week appointment. We've had sex a couple of times but things seemed a little off. I finally got up the nerve to ask DH how it was for him, and he said I felt looser than I was. I've been doing kegel exercises since 1 week post op and things felt fine to me. I just worry that I've been stretched too far and won't ever be tight enough for him now. We have 2 kids and it wasn't until after my 2nd child that I felt tighter than ever, I supposed my episotomy was stitched more than needed. I'm wondering can this be fixed and if so should I check with my DR now or wait a little longer?

I'm sorry to ask but I've been reading posts for weeks and haven't found anyone else having this problem most report the opposite. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

I'm sorry...I don't have an answer for you. I had a TAH, so not sure about this question. Hopefully, someone will have the same experience and respond soon.

Take care, and best of luck on your recovery. Hang in there, you are still early in recovery!

Feeling a little different

I had a LAVH and not yet at my 6 wks, so I don't have your answer either.
Yikes, looser??
I thought things would be dry and tight because of swelling still (or perhaps that's my big fear?) I've had 3 kids and everything has been grand in that region.
I go to the dr on Wed for my 6 wks appointment and expect to be "cleared for take-off"
Will let you know how it goes!

I wonder if an estrogen vaginal creme or ring would strengthen up the vaginal walls (I plan to use this to strengthen the vagina and bladder.)

Great big to you
