We have two DSs, one is just over 4mths old. DH and I have not had sex since I found out I was pg (I was bleeding, had previous miscarriages etc, so I was too petrified). So that's now over a year...
I feel like I'd happily never have sex again - I'm always exhausted and just can't be bothered, frankly. I also feel like my body isn't mine any more (bfeeding), and it almost feels wrong, in some way. Weird. I'm well aware that hormones are also playing a big part in this. The back story is that when ds1 was 2yo, we nearly split cos we were growing further apart, and I remember that this is how that situation all started. So my mind clearly goes a bit mad after I have a baby!
DH is a good person, who loves me and DSs, so that's not the problem.
The longer this goes on, the more of a big deal it'll become. I need to know how to get the spark back! When DH comes home from work and gives me a kiss, I turn so we kiss each other on the cheek. If he cuddles up in bed, I freeze. I mean, WTF?! He has put on weight over the winter, which also really bugs me, although I haven't told him this (I'm not a COMPLETE cow).
What do I do to a) stop me being selfish, b) help me appreciate that I've got a great dh, and c) stop me thinking so negatively about being intimate again?
