Breastfeeding and zero interest in sex!

My fiancé and I have always had a great sex life, including throughout my entire pregnancy.
But since having our daughter I'm just not interested.
My fiancé is understanding but I know it bothers him.
Anyone else in a similar situation?
She's coming up for 8 months.

Yes my baby is 9 1/2 months OP and I feel exactly the same.

It's normal. Nature's way of spacing out children and giving your body a chance to recover.

Exactly the same - DC2 is 8 months and I have no interest whatsoever. It was the same after DC1, but picked up again when I stopped breastfeeding/baby sleeping better.

Mother Nature is pretty smart Smile
Aw thanks so much all. I'll be being bf'ing until she self-weans so at least another 2/3 years to go and then I'll probably be perimenopausal as well (oh God!!!)
I guess I just keep reassuring my OH?
