Hi, Exactly 75 days back my wife delivered our baby. It was a cesarean delivery. Can we start having sexual intercourse or we should wait for some more days?

Ideally we wait for 40 days in normal delivery but in cesarean we advice wait of 3 months. If her vaginal secretions that come following delivery have stopped or less then you may start. Kindly use condom for 3-4 moths. Two reasons- 1) because her discharge may give you trouble in penis following sex. 2) following delivery, most times, periods get delayed and you may pregnant her once again, unplanned pregnancy. Take precautions.
