I delivered 4 months back. It was a vaginal delivery. How soon before I can resume having sex?

You can start having intercourse after you've healed from delivery – usually four to six weeks after giving birth. Talk to your gynecologist first because getting pregnant too soon after delivery can be risky. Getting in the mood and enjoying sex may take time. Don't expect to jump right back into the kind of sex life you had before your pregnancy. Most women have a diminished sex drive for several months after giving birth. And caring for a newborn is exhausting, so you and your partner may have little energy left for sex. But don't panic: Most couples' sex lives rebound within a year.
