Subject: I've gone off sex since our child was born, and fear this will hurt our marriage | Ask Annalisa Barbieri
| How do you rebuild intimacy when your body and your life have changed? Start by taking the pressure off My daughter is 15 months old, and since I gave birth, my libido has been very low. Sex is the last thing on my mind, which frustrates my husband and makes him feel unwanted. He is understanding and very loving, but I do sense his frustration. Of course, there is intimacy between us and I still feel attracted to him, but caring for our child 24/7 leaves me quite drained, emotionally. I fear that our relationship will be affected and we might get distanced if this carries on for a while. |
