So, I've got a 4mth old baby and myself and my DH still haven't had sex since I gave birth!!
The first 6 weeks were just crazy with having a newborn, then we had to move in with my parents for a while, so it felt a bit strange with them in the next room - paper thin walls!!
However, now we're back home we have decided that tomorrow we will have a nice meal, chat, then an early night........
My DH is so lovely and understanding...but I feel really nervous - I just hope everything is alright with my undercarriage!

Glass of wine solves all. Just don't overdo it. It's like riding a bike Grin just make sure it goes at a pace you are happy with and don't be insecure, you are the wonderful woman that gave him a child!

Hi! Just wanted to tell you that you are not alone!

I had my baby 4 months ago too and we've had two attempts at it so far. Use lots of lube and try to relax! I'm not using any hormonal contraception so I'm totally put off by it all, in fear of getting pregnant again! I am also breastfeeding only which has throw my sex drive right out of the window.

My DH has been very pacient and good since the birth so I can't complain really and he doesn't last very long at all as its been quite a while now!

Good luck! Xx
