Hi everyone,
So after advice really, going to do a bit of a random background bit first! So I'm eight months post partum, have a lovely eight month old boy who has been amazing but always a terrible sleeper and had awful reflux which were waiting for a paediatrician appointment for, cos of this he's always slept with me and naps even now have to be contact so I get very little time.
My partner is the most supportive amazing dad and partner. We've been together for three and a half years. I'm got very bad post natal anxiety which I'm under perinatal mental health team for.
In my third trimester we had sex maybe twice cos it was an uncomfortable and painful for me. I had a planned c section cos of previous rape/sexual abuse stuff, everything went amazingly with the birth. Since having the baby we've had sex four times I think. I just can't get in the mood/switch off enough to want to do it, my partner is getting increasingly upset about it and has started to really ramp up the constant telling me I'm hot, asking to kiss me/touch me and honesty it's just making things worse. I don't know what to do! I would love to feel like I want to have sex with him again but I just can't imagine it at the moment.
