Connecting

I feel the same way. We have a two month old and getting out the house for walks, coffee, or grabbing a bite to eat helps us regroup. What also helps me reconnect with my partner is opening up to him about how distant I feel and he’s pretty receptive and reassuring. Hope this helps. Just know you’re not alone feeling this way it’s typical and I’m sure you guys will get your spark back. It’s takes time. 🫶🏽🥹

Hey, I totally relate to what you’re feeling. After having my daughter, my husband and I also felt distant—both emotionally and physically. It’s been a daily challenge because we were so used to going out, having fun, and even traveling a lot. Now, with all the new responsibilities, things have definitely changed. But despite the tough moments, we’re trying every day to be better—for each other and for our daughter. Lately, we’ve been making an effort to reconnect by having movie nights, talking more, opening up to each other, going out for a glass of wine, and even playing games together. It’s helped us feel closer again. You’re not alone in this, and it’s okay to take things one step at a time.

Give it time, it’s not easy for both and it could be that he has adjustment issues. Let him process this emotion.. honestly should resolve in few months. My husband and I were like this for almost a year but after that it all came back to normal

Honestly, we have a 7 months old and I feel ever so lonely. There’s hardly any teamwork. I feel like a single mom. But we’ve been travelling and going out. It’s been hard but we’ll get there x

Hey mama, I completely understand how you’re feeling. After having my baby, I also felt distant from my husband emotionally and physically. Exhaustion, body changes, and unmet emotional needs all played a role. What helped me was accepting my feelings, focusing on my peace, and improving communication. I also leaned into small moments of connection instead of forcing things back to how they were. It takes time, but you’re not alone,this phase doesn’t define your relationship forever. Be kind to yourself and take it one step at a time. ❤️

I still do. It’s so hard!!!! And my son is 15months old.
