How has intimacy been with your partner since baby?

Mine has decreased just because it depends on if my son will let us. Like if he’s calm we can go into the other room whenever. However, it’s not making at all. My husband is big on intimacy and it makes us both feel better after a long day so we’ve both made it a priority.
@Rachel I’m thinking it might be the hormones too especially because I breast feed and we cosleep. Loving yourself again after a baby is tough! I understand fully. I’m hoping it’ll get better for us 🫶🏾🥺
@Jazmine Centanni I think that’s the hardest part. We haven’t been making prioritizing it. That’s the hard part
You’ve gotta make it a priority. I get that some relationships don’t need too much sex but it’s a great way to make sure you guys stay close. It helps both your moods too. Sex makes life easier in my opinion
My husband and I have a very strong relationship but we don’t have a separate bedroom from the baby, which makes it difficult to get down, and also, we’re both exhausted most nights. I think it’s very normal at this stage.
That is such a good question! I am in the same boat
The intimacy between my husband and I has definitely decreased. It was going good for a little while but my libido has almost completely gone away. I think it's a combination of my hormones and the lack of self-confidence. I have struggled a lot with body image since having my baby girl. That definitely puts a damper on wanting to be intimate even though my husband has been super supportive. It's really hard because we have always had a great sex life and I know my husband misses that connection. I'm hoping it will get better and back to normal eventually.
