Dry spells postpartum
Hi all, my husband and I will be married for 11 years in June. We have a 3 1/2 year old and a 4 month old. I'm almost 5 months postpartum. The last couple of months we were active with intimacy. This month hardly at all. I've tried initiating and he rejects it. He shared with me briefly that there is stuff going on at work. I get that's probably difficult. However I want to be connected with my husband intimately. I am taking it very personal because I thought for the majority of guys they are all about that. It just seems I'm married to the 1% that isn't interested in that. Has anyone else gone through this with their husband? If so, how did you handle it. I understand his needs may be different than mine right now. Yet he wonders why I've been acting short lately, well because it's been almost over a week. I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm a thick girl but that's never been an issue before...
Don’t blame yourself at all you’re beautiful! I’ve been having the same issue but it’s been ongoing for months. I got pregnant in February 24 and that’s when it all started for me, i noticed a huge decrease in intimacy. I am now about 3 months post partum, and it’s still the same. I honestly gave up bc I find him more interested to go look at porn, and follow a bunch of chicks with there butt, or boobs out. So in my case i know it’s me. But it might not be that I’d try to talk it out with him explain how you feel and what you need from him!
