Need to spice up my marriage

Me and husband have been together for nearly 9years now. We used to have great sex and a lot of dates until last couple if years we both got very stressfull jobs ( his job is both physical and mental stress) so our sex lives became less due to us being tired. my pregnancy was high risk and after 3 months we were told to avoid sexual intercourse and I was mostly bed bound then we had a baby, now 7 months. Due to my birth injuries we didn't have sex yet. We haven't been on a date properly yet either. I feel I am mostly ready to try to get intimate again, but I don't know how to start the conversation and let him know because his so busy with work and tired this time of the year. Plus, we co sleep with the baby so it makes it harder to do anything. How did you guys restart your sexlife after the baby or a long period of room mate phase.

Honestly I wouldn’t have a conversation about it I would just go for it 🤷🏻‍♀️

I wouldn't cosleep unless absolutely necessary, that will not help at all

And just start slow. Baby steps. Kissing, foreplay, talking about intimate things and flirting. Take it one day at a time

Agree with just starting the conversation with him and see where that goes ! Communication is key. Just let him know how you’re feeling and what you need. Ask him the same things. Best place to start. We co sleep with 2 kids. We have a waterproof cover we put on the couch or the floor in the living room for our intimate time. We do monthly date nights as well. I hope this helps !

Relationships can be in seasons I call it. As long as you both are communicating your needs, on the same page, and Doing what you can to support the other it will all be okay !

If baby is 7 months, it’s probably time to start transitioning to his own bed. Yes, it’ll be tough at first. But it’ll be worth it to reclaim your space. The book Precious Little Sleep has some good advice for co-sleepers who want their beds back.
