So I'm new to this site and also new to asking for advice/help.
My fiance and I are having some intimacy issues. I gave birth over a year ago. I had no issue getting the the mood after the delivery and we managed to continue our routine for a few months after. Now though, I could really care less. I mean, I WANT to but I just can't get my body and mind into it. Its really started to put a strain on us because before the baby, sex was an everyday thing. I read where some people say to force yourself and i just can't. I've also seen other mothers say the birthcontrol that still lets you nurse can affect you.
I just really don't know what to do anymore. I feel broken, like I can't perform no matter how badly I want to. My husband, as loving as he is, just has a hard time coping with my lack of interest. He feels like it's his fault but it isn't. Any ideas/advice? I could really use it.
Thanks
