Total loss of libido
Show your support
So I wasn’t able to due to pain, but that has improved in the last month or 2.. It’s coincided with night weaning and an obvious shift in hormones. I can only relax enough to get in the mood when little one is at Nanas for a few hours. We’ve discussed needing to find a way to still have intimacy when he’s here but I can’t get out of my head enough. My drive has improved as my enjoyment has.. perhaps take the focus of sex, see if you can get some alone time with your partner and just enjoy other things. If not already could also try the doctors, they can prescribe something that may help with the pain. That said… Also don’t feel you have to, or put more pressure on yourself.. My partner and I for one reason or another had sex a handful of times in 2yrs.. I worried we’d not get back to where we were before but he’s been amazing, obviously frustrated but understanding and now things are getting better again. Give yourself grace. I struggle raising 1.. you’re raising 3
Also try and find some time for yourself.. guilt free.. let Dad have kids, go out for a walk by yourself, hot soak in bath unrushed with full moisturising pamper after.. sit with a hot cup of coffee outside and enjoy it.. Whatever little things work for you.. You have to take time to nurture yourself, and don’t feel guilty about it.. You can’t give from an empty cup x
Omg I could of written this post bar the breast feeding I've been in the same boat I actually gave in lastnight as its been 4 months and don't want my husband to get upset or think I don't love him because I really do! But like you I have no libido at all I did after about 6 months after having my son via emergency c section but like I say I haven't for over 4 months now! I think it's got to do with being peri menopause as that's me right now 🤔
