Laura Byrne Describes Her Sex Life After Giving Birth In Gory Detail

“I had a lot of stitches.” - by Lucy Bode
  • 28 Jan 2020

When you’ve got midnight feeds, inflamed nether-regions and dirty nappies to deal with, it’s not surprising that most new mums rank sex pretty low on the priority list. But as Laura Byrne will attest, your desire to do the lust-and-thrust with your SO will return… eventually.

Watch Laura Bryne open about her expectations of birth versus reality...

Speaking on her podcast Life Uncut, the 33-year-old admitted that she was anxious to do the deed with her Bachie fiancé Matty J after welcoming their daughter Marlie-Mae to the world.

“The doctors tell you that you'll be ready to have sex at the six-week mark... but I was not ready,” she told her co-host Brittany Hockley. “I was so tired and the thought of having sex would make me want to cry... so we had sex at about eight weeks.”

They say you're insanely fertile after having a baby. Matt's being extra vigilant ..... (swipe across)

“I had a lot of stitches so I was expecting it to be horrific but it was fine,” she continued, adding that her lady parts were “swollen,” like she’d been bitten by a bee down there.

Still, she said she was “pleasantly surprised” because it “didn’t hurt and it wasn’t scary” when they finally got back in the saddle. “It was exactly how I had remembered it being, nothing seemed any different.”

As for her new year’s resolution? Prioritise her relationship… and have sex more often.

The old ball and chain

"I'm getting back on that bandwagon. The less of it you have, the less of it you need,” she said. "As much as we absolutely love each other, there are aspects of our relationship that have been massively put on the back-burner. I just want to reshuffle my life and put our relationship back up the pile."
