feeling rejected

DD is almost 3 months old, i want to get back in the saddle so to speak... but he does not seem interested.
when i was heavily pregnant he was not into it: said felt like another person was there: fair enough

then we were waiting till i had my coil fitted. since then we've done it a couple of time but only when i've initiated things.

have lost most of baby weight, am trying not too slob around house in PJs too much, but it's difficult to be glamourous and sexy when BFing, so feeling really rejected when make what effort I can and then he just wants to sleep!!

don't know wether to talk about it, or will that then make it into "a big thing" and make things worse....

Advice please?

The only way you'll find out what he's thinking is by asking him.

He's probably mindful of your breastfeeding etc. and only wants you to have sex when you really feel like it, doesn't want to pressure you probably, which is the way it should be Wink.

No need to make a big fuss about it, just gently ask him if there's a reason he doesn't seem that interested.
It is very early days yet, for both of you.
