KEY POINTS

  • Nikki Bella opened up about being intimate with fiancé Artem Chigvintsev again after giving birth 
  • However, she suggested that they may have engaged in post-baby intimacy too early
  • Bella welcomed her first child with the pro dancer in July

Nikki Bella gave birth to her first child with fiancé Artem Chigvintsev just two months ago, but she has admitted that she and her partner have already started getting intimate again.

The former wrestler revealed in the latest episode of her and twin sister Brie's “The Bellas Podcast” that she and Chigvintsev are “already having sex.” However, she suggested that they may have engaged in post-baby intimacy a little too early.

“I didn’t even make it to the six-week point, I just started at five,” Nikki said on Wednesday, Sept. 23. “I was like I’m healed, I’m fine.”

She noted that being intimate with the “Dancing with the Stars“ pro now is “a little different” from her experience prior to giving birth.

“Even though last night it didn't seem fine, but that's OK. It was a little different… I felt like organs were like about to drop out. I was like, shoot, did I mess up?” she added.

Nikki also got candid about wanting to be intimate with Chigvintsev again when she was nearing her due date. She confessed during a July episode of their podcast that she even dreamt of it.

Brie, however, had warned Nikki that it would take a lot of healing after she delivered her baby before she can be intimate with her partner again. She also explained that Nikki may change her tune once she gives birth.

Nikki and her partner welcomed their first child, son Matteo, on July 31. Brie gave birth to son Buddy, her second child with husband Daniel Bryan and younger sibling of 3-year-old daughter Birdie Joe, the following day.

The twin sisters both announced their pregnancies in January and confirmed that their due dates were less than two weeks apart, much to the shock of fans. In July, they posed for a nude maternity shoot in which Nikki and Brie showed off their baby bumps.

Meanwhile, Nikki also clarified one post she shared last week on Instagram. “Mama getting her groove back… postpartum panties out the door, boobies still off limits lol, but everyday feeling more like me,” she captioned a video of her and her fiancé dancing and kissing.

She explained in their latest podcast episode that she had not intended for it to sound sexual and just meant that she was longer using postpartum underwear.

“I reread it and I’m like, ‘oh my god I totally did make it like Artem’s throwing my panties out the door’ and like, here we go. I did not mean that,” she said.
