Relationship issues

I've been with my partner for a couple of years & we have a beautiful 9 month old son. We had always been close & had a healthy physical relationship. Ever since my son was born, I can't bear to be near him. He badgers me for sex & I've no interest whatsoever, He often tries to kiss & cuddle me but I just can't bear it & wish he would leave me alone. He complains constantly that I don't want him near me & I feel guilty & I wonder if this is common for new (ish) mums?

Pressurising / bullying someone in to having sex is not common and not ok.

It's possible that you are getting your physical "cuddle" needs met by your son and don't want another one to cuddle as well! It happened to me (baby was far cuter to cuddle than DH) so I went off my dh for a while, it wasn't especially healthy and did put a wedge between us.
Looking back I wish I had been more aware of it and made some "dedicated" time for my dh.
