It’s very natural to feel scared or hesitant. You can share how you feel with your husband to see if he’s okay waiting a little longer, or if both of you can express love for each other in other ways at the moment. As for your concerns, the stitches shouldn’t rip anymore if it’s all healed nicely:) If you’re worried about dryness or pain, you can try using lubrication gel to help. The enjoyment part comes from more than just a physical interaction. Talk to your hubby and see if he can find a way to help you relax and enjoy as well. That’s what love is about:)
