weight and libido loss

[neeka]

my third child is now 4 months old but i am still very overweight and have no sex drive, are these related? not sure if my disgust of post natal body is affecting my libido

Personally speaking I always feel less 'up for it' if I feel moody, hormonal or less than physically desirable. My dh however assures me that it makes no difference to him and that I can just put a bag over my head if it would help!!!!

thats nice of him!!

Depends. Sometimes a mix of weight gain and low libido can have a common cause ie hormones or thyroid trouble. THough if you have 3 kids and the youngest is 4 months it's not exactly surprising that your libido is low.

Tiredness and overwork is probably causing your lack of libido. It will all improve with time. I blame stupid women's magazines that tell us we all out to be stick insect nymphos, so we all wonder what's wrong with us when there's nothing wrong at all. Your body has just had something of a trauma with childbirth. Cut it some slack

ought, soz.
