Intimacy

I have recently had a baby I have no desire to be touched. I am constantly exhausted I have 2other toddlers but my husband doesn’t understand he want cuddles every time, saying he is depressed he doesn’t help he spends most of his free time on sofa and phone, blames me for lack of energy as I don’t cuddle him. If I do he wants more.
Is it normal for partners to demand intimacy for them to help around the house?

Tell him that you don’t find lazy sex pests a turn on.

No it's not normal. He should be doing his share regardless of what he 'gets' in return. Maybe he should understand you're exhausted and with all your hormonal shifts it's normal to not what infancy at this time. I was the same after my births I didn't want to be touched. Honestly he sounds horrid. Have you noticed any similar behaviour before?

Was he like this when you had your older children?
