Well I totally understand this as when I had Paige I thought I would never have sex again....However the "drive" did return and was one night after a couple of glasses of bubbly!! If there is anything thats going to bring it back a few glasses will so do the trick i reckon!

This time in our household..Ive been a keen participant for a wee while now....but Poor Old Mark is gone at 4:30 in the morn, gets home at 6 then works every Saturdays..so he just has no energy at all!

Oh well....its not a biggie!

My problem is that I"m worried that all the stitched bits down under might POP open! Which is so silly I know. I"m now kind of wishing the MW checked me out before she discharged me.
I can't even stand kissing. So sad. Partly because when I do happen to really kiss DH he tries to jump me . Just can't be bothered dealing with that! Sigh, guess I'll never have another baby. I wonder if my DH was Brad Pitt, would I have the same lack of mojo??? hehehe ]]> Wed, 27 Jun 2007 17:10:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=168120&title=sex-drive#168120 <![CDATA[Sex Drive : Its wierd...I still really enjoy...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=168052&title=sex-drive#168052 Author: MummyFreckle

Its wierd...I still really enjoy it, but it seems to take me a bit longer to 'warm up to the idea' of it now. Generally its not a problem in our house (which my DH constantly thanks me for and is very appreciative - its so sweet that he knows how lucky he is!!) but will see what happens after the baby arrives?!?!]]> Wed, 27 Jun 2007 15:44:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=168052&title=sex-drive#168052 <![CDATA[Sex Drive : My sex drive has driven off and...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=168030&title=sex-drive#168030 Author: .Mel

Sex Drive! What's that it's been so long since I had one I have forgotten.

This is a bone of contention with Hubby and has been since No2. As I tell him I have three screaming, fighting, argumentative very tiring reasons as to why we never do it very often.

I swear if we could hire out our bundles of work (god bless them) to teenagers as contraceptives teen pregnancies would plummet.

At least now I can tell him there are plenty of other men who suffer the same fate as him.

Hubby had a really bad dose of the flu a few weeks ago and upon being turned down due to his flu and me not wanting to catch it his response was "It's ok I promise i won't breathe on you"!

I have a partner who is not the father of my child and doesn't quite understand how much tiredness affects you! He's still up for the every night business!!! ARGH!!!

Anyway, mostly I comply. Sometimes I am too exhausted or distracted but then he feels crap because I don't want to do things so I end up spending just as much energy talking to him to try and make him feel better so I may as well just will myself to enjoy it! (Which I do when I try) So yeah... we'll see how long this lasts!

I blame the lack of interest on sleep depravation and being more tired in general. I too find it a bit of an uphill battle to get in the mood but it gets easier once things start getting heated up. Maybe start with something you enjoy eg ask DH to look after bub so you can take a bath and then ask for a nice relaxing back rub? ]]> Wed, 27 Jun 2007 01:50:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167673&title=sex-drive#167673 <![CDATA[Sex Drive : chovynz wrote:Hehe..motion...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167653&title=sex-drive#167653 Author: busymum

Hehe..motion sickness...
"Don't rock the boat!!!" Sorry that just occurred to me.

From this thread I can tell:
1) some of you women dont understand your guys and
2) some your guys dont understand you either...
3) some of you women dont know yourselves

1) You can't make a guy 'treat you right'. It just doesn't happen from guys. 'Treating you right' has got to come from them, and they'll only learn that stuff if they want to. Usually that kinda info has to come from a guy for them to hear it, otherwise it's a 'conspiracy of the womenfolk' kinda thing.

2) Often the guy can help the woman feel appreciated by helping them out at home, or taking the kids, or SOMETHING to help their DP/DW. But....bad news....see 1)

3) how the hell can you feel pity for me then get in the mood?? (Sorry, that was from a conversation DW and I just had.) ]]> Tue, 26 Jun 2007 22:35:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167650&title=sex-drive#167650 <![CDATA[Sex Drive : Ahhhh go the wine!

I am struggling with this a little bit at the mo with being tired and having a touch of m/s. I do 'put out' on a regular basis tho. I kind of think, DH comes home from a suck day at work and cooks dinner...I can be a starfish (hehehe not really). We try and talk about it so neither of us gets tichy about the subject. Its important for both sides to comprimise/sacrifice to keep the relationship healthy I think. He is helping me while I am feeling like crap so its the least I can do for him.

I find it helps setting the alarm 15mins earlier and doing it in the morning

The more you do it the more you want to.....apparantly! Works for me

Yup I think it's pretty common. Are you still bf or waking in the nights? They have a huge part to play in your exhaustion which in turn affects your "feeling like it". It's good to be honest about it but I feel sorry for DH when I'm in that place so I try hard to get in the mood for him. Gosh this is a TMI subject LOL! One thing that really helps me is that after the baby has gone to bed for the night we might do a little bit of kissing and then I'll excuse myself to have a little bit of "me" time in the shower, that helps me have a bit of space and recharge and then I put on something which helps me feel sexy lol (not flanelette! ) and usually enjoy it after then!

The other thing I find is that once my AF returns I get back into the hormonal swing of things and the mood rises and falls help somehow. And doing it at least 1-2 times a week helps to not get "stale". Dunno how that works but the more we have it, the better it gets LOL]]> Tue, 26 Jun 2007 12:54:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167226&title=sex-drive#167226 <![CDATA[Sex Drive : heya Linelle, Ive been like that...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167218&title=sex-drive#167218 Author: kellverona

heya Linelle,

Ive been like that too. I think mainly cos Im still breastfeeding and have my own issues about my body image. When I dont feel sexy I dont feel like sex. Its silly cos DH still finds me sexy and that is really all that matters.

I feel like if I never have sex again I dont care but DH is understanding and when we do it its nice and quick, hehe. The way i like it these days. As much as I enjoy it ,,, i just dont have the energy like i used to.

I hope my normal sex drive does return some time soon.

I reckon there is alot of us Mums out there that feel the same...

I wonder if it will ever come back for me but I figure people have more than 1 child so it must I have been having little thoughts lately about it but now I wonder when can it start to bring on labour as I am not ready for bubs just yet]]> Tue, 26 Jun 2007 11:55:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167190&title=sex-drive#167190 <![CDATA[Sex Drive : I&#039;m going to put a different...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167182&title=sex-drive#167182 Author: baalamb

I'm going to put a different slant on things. I find my DH much more 'appealing' when he helps me out around the house instead of me feeling like I have to do it all the time. At the end of a long day taking care of Ashlee and then working in the evenings, I don't feel like 'rewarding' him with anything if there's been nothing done around the house.

I also know that I need to work on myself in regards to self esteem and self confidence in order to get my sex drive back up to speed.]]> Tue, 26 Jun 2007 11:46:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167182&title=sex-drive#167182 <![CDATA[Sex Drive : Yup i lost my sex drive altogether...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167152&title=sex-drive#167152 Author: BaAsKa

Yup i lost my sex drive altogether when my first son was 4 months old but it was due to getting hypothyroidism apparently . Even when my HT went away i still had no sex drive and was told that the more you do it the more your libedo will return so thats what we did (helped that we were TTC at the time! lol) and all is back to normal now!!....and hopefully the same thing wont happen again after this bubs!

Iv spoken to sooooo many people who have gone through the same thing and like me their stints were lasting for years!! but im sure your DH understands, i know that my DH was getting so frustrated! and it made for alot of fights! but when i spoke to him about him he really did understand but couldnt help but show frustration sometimes.

It does get better....]]> Tue, 26 Jun 2007 10:51:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167152&title=sex-drive#167152 <![CDATA[Sex Drive : None here either.

None here either. I'm wondering if breastfeeding could have something to do with it. I also wonder if it might return a bit when AF arrives. I haven't had it back yet (Elle is 10mths) but the dreaded hormonal bloat is paying me a visit so I think it's on its way.

No tips sorry!]]> Tue, 26 Jun 2007 10:43:10 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167148&title=sex-drive#167148 <![CDATA[Sex Drive : i haven&#039;t had a sex drive...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167141&title=sex-drive#167141 Author: jack_&_charli

Im having some issues with my sex drive its non existant and is starting to cause issues between me and DF.

Has this happened to anyone else?? I was fine until a month or two ago.

Have tried "spice it up" things but it just doesn't help.

Any ideas?]]> Tue, 26 Jun 2007 10:01:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8538&PID=167113&title=sex-drive#167113
