Babies: 0 - 3 Months

I have no sex drive :(

I feel bad for DH. I want to but can't find the energy or time. I am just as happy not having sex right now...which is not the normal me. DS is 7.5 weeks and I thought it would be better now. Who's with me?!

Re: I have no sex drive :(

  • Sweetheart, you have a brand new baby & a toddler- it's very normal!!

  • I am right there with you.  I think BF is making it worse.  I don't know if it is the BF hormones or the fact that I have the baby attached to me about 7 - 8 hours a day....

    I still have not had sex with him PP yet.  Poor DH!

  • DD is 3 months and I am still not really into sex.  I BF and it really does make you dry down there. DH is trying to be understanding, but it hurts his feelings sometimes when I don't want sex as often as he does.
  • DH and I have had sex once since LO was born.  I am just so tired at the end of the day that it is the last thing on my mind as well.  I'm hoping it gets better.

  • I haven't done it since November!  I feel bad for my BF but I just have no desire. I'm also scared it will be painful. :(

  • im the same way. if i had to choose sex or sleep i pick sleep. i have a very active 5 yr old and a 2 month old so my days are long and sex is usually the last thing on my mind.
  • Breastfeeding + 2 kids 13 months apart = a sexually frustrated DH here. I know that things will get better once DD#2 STTN but I, too, have no desire.

  • No sex drive here AT ALL.  Plus it's hard to find time, and when there's time there's no energy.  Poor DH...we've had sex once since I was 40 weeks pregnant.

  • Totally there with you.  My DH is rarin' to go all the time - he has bought all this lingerie and I would rather just zonk out in bed.  We've only had sex twice since LO was born; I feel really guilty...

  • I'm a little late to this thread but I am in the same boat. My doc said its mother natures way of making sure we dont get ku to soon.
    Effing crazy people.
  • Same here.  Sex is the last thing on my mind.  I don't think we've had sex since late fall.  I'm still sore down there from my stitches, and had to have repair work done twice.  I'm also extremely exhausted as I EBF and DS is still on a 2 hr schedule even at night.  DH will get over it ;-)

  • Right there with you! DH was totally looking forward to getting past my 6 week appt (which was last Monday) even though I told him I might not be ready...poor guy! I almost just told him the dr said we would have to wait a few more weeks for things to heal Embarrassed Things still hurt down there from the stitches, plus being exhausted on top of that. He's so understanding, but I know its frustrating.
