Postpartum sex, how?

So I’m 3 months postpartum and me and my husband have only had sex twice. The twice we did it was when my mum was watching baby. It wasn’t great as it was rushed and painful for me. We’ve tried having quickies when baby is sleeping but she always seems to wake up. I can’t really relax unless we have a lot of foreplay and worrying about making noise and waking baby doesn’t really put me in the mood. My sex drive has pretty much gone anyway but I want to please my husband and make our marriage work.
All the advice I read online is to get a babysitter, have date night, etc, but can’t do any of that now with covid. Even my mum has said she won’t come down again now till she has a covid vaccine.
I feel like due to covid/lockdown we have nothing exciting going on (apart from baby of course) we’re both so stressed. How are you all making it work?

stop putting yourself under pressure.

It will happen when it does, one evening baby will sleep soundly and you will move from a cuddle to full sex without bad waking.

Let it happen when it does and dont worry
