New moms who are experiencing perinatal difficulties that impact their physical comfort and body image can often lose interest in sex.
“There is always a very good reason why couples stop having sex after having a baby. I tell my clients that no one is broken or needs to be fixed. It helps to understand what is getting in the way of having sex, so that you can change that or make conscious decisions about the relationship.”
Since our bodies experience change after giving birth, you might struggle feeling as desirable or beautiful as you felt before pregnancy. Even if your partner reassures you that you still look beautiful, you might still find it hard to get used to your postpartum body.

Brilliant article! It is common for women to refrain from having sexual relations after childbirth. It is the time when their body heals, and physical changes occur, such as hormones returning to pre-pregnancy levels. As a result, it’s best to wait four to six weeks before having sex again. Couples should recognize that diminished sex desire is a typical biological reaction that will pass quickly.
