It turns out, it just needed some dedication to the cause I'm not sure what the cause was/is, but it's gradually coming right.
Thanks so much everyone for your feedback - I really appreciate(d) it!

LOL @ "dedication to the cause" that is SUCH a brilliant way to put it!!
On a more serious note, good that it is coming right. Something that is often a problem which I forgot to mention is that it is natural after childbirth for down there to tighten up because with normal birth it has to... When you have a c-section your body still "tightens up" even though Bubs has not actually gone through the birth canal.....IYKWIM? Also a common thing also to happen is a lack of self lubrication...

Oh god, I am petrified now! Not that I have any desire to be getting busy right now, I certainly will be making sure I have some lube handy before we go down that road again.

I remember asking my MW at 2 weeks when I could BD again and she looked suprised to say the least lol! I think we did it at 4 weeks as per MW instructions and it was fine although a bit tight and definitely needed the lube.
ETA: To clarify the MW instructions related to the timeframe not the actual act lol

I was told by the docs to wait 6 months PP until DH and I even attempt to BD, due to the horrid recovery I had during thr first 6 weeks PP.
We did try it once at 4 months PP, and it too sore. We didn't even do the whole hog, and I couldn't believe how tight everything was, even though we used a tonne of lubrication. And I think all of the oxytocin that whizzes around your body when you are breastfeeding desensitises everything down there

It wasnt too bad, was armed with plenty of lube. It did hurt, but I was prepared for that.
I think after a few more rounds we should be back to normal.
