Loss of sex drive 4 months pp

My partner wants us to have more sex because we barely do now and I feel so bad. I literally have no sex drive even though I want to have more sex??? I know that doesn’t make any sense but I wouldn’t be mad I don’t have sex for a long while. I think he’s starting to feel some type of way about it. I’m also taking Zoloft for PPA and a loss of sex drive is a side effect. I’m gonna have a chat with him to let him know what’s going on but is anyone else experiencing this? I want to desire it more like I use to but idk what to do 🥴

I felt that!! Being more fresh postpartum, I didn’t want to do much. Didn’t feel the want to, tried to and it didn’t feel like it used to. It takes time! He needs to understand you really JUST had a baby and it can take a lot of time. I would have sex and I wanted to want it but it didn’t feel as meaningful as I wanted it to. I wanted to feel that drive and excitement as before. And it just takes time really. Especially with taking medication! I wish all the best! 💕

Same. I had no sex drive during pregnancy and at 6 weeks postpartum i still have no desire. My partner hates it and i feel bad for him but i don’t want to have sex

In my case is the other way around 🫠🫠🫠 I’ve been having such a high sex drive and my partner just don’t…
And I’m frustrated…

I guess best thing to do is to talk about it, but I can’t.

But if you have like zero desire, look for something else to share with him that can calm his desire?
Look for tantric sex where is basically more about breathing and connecting than just the act of sex

hey bestie <3

21 & living in Georgia 🤎 Looking for a best friend, preferably another mom who understands the chaos of everyday life! I’m down for local or long-distance friendships. I love a good conversation, random texts throughout the day, sharing little life updates, and eventually making plans to hang out.

I’m a homebody most days, but I’m always up for getting out and doing something fun. 420 friendly 🌿 Just looking for a genuine friendship that feels natural, where we can be ourselves and actually stay in touch. 🫶🏼

Anyone else feel alone as a special needs parent?

I have two boys, 5&6, and both have severe autism & adhd. Im so exhausted all the time, my husband is around but he never helps and is cliff notes involved basically.
I have gotten some time to myself after I get the kids to school but i feel like the majority of my time is spent waiting and anticipating everyones needs over myself. I miss being able to dress up, and do my make up, i miss having friends and going out, or enjoying hobbies with others :/

Single working mums ...

I am a single mum to a 13 month old and I work full time (monday to friday 8 to 4). My daughter is in nursery Mon, Tues, Weds 8 am to 4.30 pm. I'm commute to the office mon and Tues and dont pick up my daughter from my mum until half 5, getting home by 6 pm. Weds, Thurs, Fri I work from home but have my daughter with me on Thurs and Fri. My daughter goes to bed by 7 pm.

I really want to start working out again (running and the gym) but have no clue how to fit it in as a single working mum! How do you manage it?

Just wondering..

Is there just a group for yapping. Saying how our day is going and letting moms be unapologetically them ?
