After a miscarriage, when is it safe to have sex?!
Question:
After a miscarriage, when is it safe to have sex?
I know at this point sex should be the furthest thing from my mind but honestly.....that is not the case. It is Tuesday and I had a miscarriage on Sunday. For some reason (not sure if it just because I am craving the intimacy due to emotions or what) I am really wanting to have sex with my partner but I am not sure if it is safe (health wise) for me this early. Can someone with experience in this department shed some light for me. My doctor said that I will be fine for sexual intercourse after I stop bleeding, but will I still be ok prior to then? What if I am bleeding but not really heavy?

After my miscarriage, the doctor told me to wait approximately 2 weeks to let my D&C heal. However, I didn't wait. I had sex within a week and nothing awful happened.
