sex after baby

Well...my lo is 3½ months old...& I have absolutely ZERO sexual desire. I find my husband extremely attractive, of course, but he's been having to initiate all the time. Sux...but I'm sooooo exhausted all the time! A little background: this is baby #5, I lost a lot of blood, am a full time nursing student, & we're in the process of fixing a house up (completely) & moving. Uggh!!!

Try having some mommy time. I had this problem and went to a therapist. She told me to ask SO to get LO ready for bed that way I can go take a bubble bath and get out of mommy mode and into wife mode.

He's actually VERY good about helping me out & keeping her so I can have 'me' time. Its hard for me to be away too long, tho, because I solely breastfeed. I do pump & have some stored for emergencies, but I would rather her not have a bottle, so I'm rarely away from her. Even the 'me' time isn't helping, tho.
