10 weeks after having baby, I have no libido. Is this normal?
Question:
Answers:
Yes it is normal. Your exhausted. You may still be sore. I really hope that your relationship is not based on sex. Your husband is having a hard time waiting I'm sure but explain to him what is goning on and I really hope that he can be understanding. He is stressed and everything is changing for him too. He may just want to feel close to you again. He needs a little understanding too.
You will get your sex drive back, it will just take time. It took me 6 mos and I had easy deliveries.
Other Answers:
its quite normal not to have any libido. Having a new baby is exhausting. However, the fact that your relationship is not fine is probably the main cause.
Yes it is. Your body's hormone levels are just settling down. And let's face it, life for you and "dad" has changed forever. Doesn't make sense that ALL aspects of your life have changed? Remember, when you have lemons..make lemonaid.
Use your imaginations, I'm sure you two can come up with something...LOL.
GOOD LUCK and HAPPY PARENTING
Yeah it happens after becoming a mother. It happen because you are tired and learning to cope with the new situation. But try to spent time with you hubby. Becoming romantic is a start point, sex will follow. Talk about how you feel with you partner, sometimes you'd be amazed by how good they understand, or at least try to.
Good luck
That is within the range of normal. Have you gotten a full night's sleep yet? You shouldn't be having sex for at least 6-8 weeks anyway, so you can heal. Even if you had a c-section. You need time for your hormones to adjust and get back to their normal selves too. Having a new baby is very rough going the first few weeks. If he is giving you a hard time, tell him to kiss your butt and leave you alone. You just gave him one of the most beautiful gifts a woman can give to a man! Good luck honey. Tell him your libido will come back as soon as he gets off your back about it! :) more than likely it will come back in time .
you are a new mommy still and you are tired beyond belief .
this seems to be a common concern in new mommies.
it also may be hard on your other half . god forbid them to go with out for a while , even when there is a good medical reason ! some moms take a bit longer to get back in the sack !
dont stress on it. if you dont feel the urge or wanting to do anything let your partner know you are still not feeling your best after having the baby . if he doesnt seem to understand that make an apt with your OBGYN for both of you to discuss this . men are tempremental creatures and sometimes have to be told by a professional what you are feeling or not feeling to believe it .
my ex was like this . he thought the 6 week wait for sex and strainful activities meant after the 6 weeks were up i would be rolling around with him all night long , running a marathon , and such .
If the relationship isn't good, then that's why you have no libido. Fix the relationship and you'll libido will come back. YES - you are tired from taking care of a newborn & your body is still healing up. Don't worry it will come back...
Yep. Hormones, lack of sleep, distraction of a new baby...
This is normal.
See your doctor if you are concerned. Its absolutely normal...You both need to communicate with each other what you are feeling. Remember you have a newborn, things are strained. Just keep talking with each other, or see a counsellor if you need to. Hang in there!!
