@Monica thank you that! I wasn’t sure if I was being ridiculous expecting him to wait
No way c sections arnt a joke they even class it as a major surgery be kind to your self and remind him he has two hand 😉
There are ways to compromise. No you shouldn’t be having sex if you are not up for it. But he is trying (maybe poorly) to communicate his needs. Which is a good thing. Both of your needs matter. Maybe have some date nights. If you can’t get a babysitter be intentional with your guys time after the kids go to sleep. Hold hands. Talk to each other.
Don’t let yourself feel bad. This is a common feeling, one that I felt as well. Being touched out from breastfeeding and a needy toddler is a real thing. Also 10 weeks isn’t very long, you’re healing still. Sex can seem a bit scary/ intimidating after having a baby.
Is it all about sex or actual intimacy because I feel like a lot of spouses mix that up sometimes And don’t feel bad at all for letting your body heal don’t rush anything your not ready for and you’ll know when the times right however don’t forget to remind him you appreciate him where he does help and try to initiate his love language whether it’s a smile and a kiss ,conversation light though like showing interest in something he is or surprising him with take out there’s ways to increase intimacy without exerting yourself.Your a mama you and are babies first if he can’t get that after all your efforts been made then make a sit down and tell him your trying or do it anyways and let him know your not ready but you wanna work towards that in other ways
Tell him to grow up your baby is only 10 weeks and for the record my partner waited 6 months after my c section your letting your body heal
