having problems with feeling anything during sex

Ever since I delivered my daughter 6 months ago I cant feel anything during sex with my husband.  I had a fairly long cut from my vagina almost down to my anus.  Ive tried tightening my vaginal muscles, and it hasnt done much. I was wondering if theres a way to buy any kind of drugs or anything at all that might help my problem.  Also when we do certain positions I get air in my vagina.

Did you have an episiotomy or a tear?  I had an episiotomy with my first, and I actually had more problems with it than the tear.
He may have cut a nerve.  I remember mine hurt several months after I delivered--I can't remember how many months past delivery, but I know it was within the first year.

I guess a nerve was working again because I got the sensation back later.

Air can be normal--even without a delivery.  Maybe your partner is pulling out too far.  If he is, ask him not to fully withdraw with each thrust.

Kegels will help with muscle tone--also--I didn't know this until a forum on sex toys got me to looking up sex toys--but there are little balls that you can insert.  They might fall out easily until your muscles are strong enough to hold them in.  There are different weights.

I have thought about trying them because I saw a uterine prolapse once and I am just petrified of that happening to me.

Also, just give your body some time.  It has been through a rough experience.  It can take up to a year to get tone back for some people.

Hope this helps:)

Exercises will help~ posibly,  But talk to your doctor to check that there wasn't perment nerve damage, but sometimes after sirgery the nerves take longest to heal.
