Hi,
I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right place, but assumed as we are all parents on here there might be someone who understands!
My fiancé & I had our baby this year in jan & got engaged shortly after. Everything was perfect, our sex life resumed 3 weeks after my c section & was great , I'd say better than before.
Anyway, all of a sudden it's stopped. We've not had sex now for 2 months & counting. I mentioned it casually to my fiancé and he said he thought I was tired and not really interested, to which point i said I am still totally interested and that I wanted him to initiate it sometimes and to know he still finds me attractive. He assures me he does yet still 2 weeks on and we haven't made love!
The last time was over 2 months ago when I just got in the shower with him, but it stopped quite quickly after it started as it was a bit awkward in the shower & then he just got out and got dressed & that was the end of that :(
He isn't stressed with work as he likes his job, his only complaint is tiredness (his new sex excuse) but then wouldn't you have thought that he would be more tired when he was working and sharing night feeds 3 weeks after having our baby than 4 months on when she sleeps from 6-6 and I get up to do the morning feed? I make things so relaxed for him when he comes home, sometimes he has had to make food but he did that before we had a baby as he often got back from work before me.
I don't know why it's changed but I feel so upset & in unattractive to him, which he knows! Iv been honest as I think communication is key.
:(
