Relationship

It happens after having a baby, hormones all over the place, adjusting to having a baby to look after too, tired etc. it does get better. Just talk about it.

This is totally normal after having a baby, have you spoken to him about how you feel? I know it's hard but you have to make time for each other even if it's just netflix and chill....and I mean that in the literal sense! A cuddle up on the sofa and touch base with each other. We found it so hard (we have a 9yr old son who lost out in the beginning too) but she now goes to bed a few hrs before us (camera monitor) so we use the time to relax together. We make time for our son after school too now, even if it's just a quick nip to the park and ice cream. X

Me and my partner started to do date night where we would go out for food or do something just us 2 or even just sitting at home picking a film and a takeaway. I know it's not everyone's preference to have a close family member babysit at a young age but it really helped get our spark back 😄

Thank you! I will talk to him later and suggest date nights. I think it maybe because he does shift work so sometimes he on earlys and the other week he on lates then I’m really tired from looking after the baby all day.

Totally totally normal! It was one of the hardest things for me after having my first baby. But you come back to each other! 🥰

It can help to just text eachother once or twice during the day to say "miss you". If you both miss eachother, then you know you both still want to spend time together and that can feel really good even if you can't act on it right now

Really normal I think. My partner and I have been together 4 years, we’ve always been super intimate and romantic and now nothing lol. We’ve had sex once since baby was born 4 months ago! We were having sex at least a few times a week the whole time I was pregnant too. It just changes what your body wants and your priorities, but it won’t last forever.
