Infection: At postpartum day 4, the woman's body is still healing from a very traumatic experience. There are typically small tears, increased swelling and other symptoms that have not gone away. Sex during this time can be painful, and dangerous, because it could introduce bacteria or other infectious agents into the traumatized vaginal canal, cervix and uterus and cause an infection. Wait 4 wks. minimum.
