Is the intimacy over after kids?

I went through this. I was pregnant and had a toddler last year. I felt like I was ugly or he hated me idk. But now I’m no longer pregnant I don’t feel that way anymore. Now my second is here I don’t even think about intimacy at all as I’m so tired. Hubby and I still try to make time for each other and he’s very romantic but literally once its time for bed we just crash out😭 I’m hoping for things to get better when our kids get older. I see it as a chapter in our story, and hopefully things will go back to normal

@Chí that’s awesome, glad y’all could get back at it as it’s important. I think my main problem is even after voicing it to my partner it’s not heard like he acts like we never talked about it. Kinda disrespectful to my feelings. Anyways I feel like I don’t see him the same anymore hopefully we get through this

Yeah my hubby did the same and I think it’s because he finds it awkward to talk about. And I found it awkward too. But then things changed. Some men don’t like to admit it but they shy away when their partner is pregnant. Idk if it’s the stomach, or concerns about the baby or whatever. Try not to overthink, I honestly think when baby is here and time goes on, it’ll go back to normal x

No, pregnancy actually makes it great to be intimate since you can’t be anymore pregnant than you already are lol unless advised otherwise 😆 my partner always wait postpartum until I feel ok as well, and we’re still doing it quite regularly, at least once a week. We both work too, and we have 2 under 2, but they’re not 2 and 3 years old so able to have more time at night together, sometimes it’s just cuddling, or just do our own things but in each other’s presence. There can be week or two where we didn’t have sex as I might be on my period or one of us are just too tired. It takes both to obv keep the romance up, just have to be honest about how you both feel, and don’t use the baby as an excuse. Don’t try to win who’s more tired either, because you don’t exactly win anything out of that. A lot of arguments that break people up tend to be about that, so just support each other, and knows that if you miss him, he probably misses you too. You do love each other after all.
