Sex after baby

Hi all,
I was just wondering if anybody else feels like me, before I had my son I was quite sexually active I am really not interested in sex at all but don't want my husband to go looking elsewhere.

Hi i am a first time mum, and i have felt the same the last thing on my mind was sex, which worried me, i kept worrying my husband would go elsewhere too, but i explained to him how i felt,,, that i was tired and hormones all over the spot and to be honest it helped, we took our time and eventually we got back to normal but it did take time.

Hiya, you've not said how long ago you had your baby, but I bet you're tired and your hormones are raging all over the place. Keep being intimate with your hubby, little touches, kisses, talking/laughing etc. You'll soon get your mojo back! Good luck.

HI hun, sounds like the above lady said your tired and that's ok it;s normal and your hormones take ages to settle down, just talk to your husband so he understands whats going on and things will sort themselves out in the end xxxx

Hiya, I had my baby 6 months ago and my partner and I are only just getting a normal sex life back now. It takes time xxx
