She lost interest in sex after our baby, help!

By Auntyji Tuesday, April 3, 2012 - 17:04
My wife is not interested in sex anymore, now that we have a baby. I feel that for her it was like, "OK, I am pregnant...now no more sex". What should I do? Sachin, Bhopal

Auntyji says… Now, worry not ji, this is perfectly natural.

It's obvious that your life will never be the same. And I am sure that you are looking forward to a lot of joy, a lot more responsibilities and some changes as well. Especially if the baby is your first one.

I understand your situation. Don't be surprised to find your wife less interested in sex than you are.

Motherhood is almost a full-time job. Let her get used to the feeling. There will be times when you might feel neglected or even frustrated. But don’t let her know that. I know you will suddenly feel that you are not the most important person in her life. Right?

Insecure

So as I say, no need to worry, your wife is feeling just like many, many other women. It's not that she is not interested in you or being with you anymore.

I'll be surprised if your votti is not worried about the repair of an episiotomy or some stitches that she had.

Also, the media constantly tells us that even a slightly overweight woman is not sexy, so maybe she's just a bit insecure. Go ahead, make her feel comfortable and good about her body. Tell her how she still rocks your life and you'll be rocking the bed in no time.

Spice

Basically, play your cards strategically. Remember her sex drive is not dead, maybe just subdued. The little bundle of joy soaks up her time, energy and emotions.

So maybe try something new to spice up the things. Maybe at times, you can be spontaneous, maybe at times ask her what she wants. After my first born, I too was kind of coy for a few months, but your uncle was quite a player. And I am glad to share his secret with you today.

Snuggle time

Sachin, remember that you have the home team advantage, so use it. You already know what rocks her boat. So push the right buttons and then start the engine. Rev slowly until warmed up. Focus on her needs, entice her and then just wait for your turn. Yes I am advising a little bit of manipulation but it’s for a good cause, so am sure rab will forgive me. In my experience, there is no sex better than gratitude sex.

Most importantly don't rush anything. Try to plan some time alone, even if it's just to cuddle: Having a baby may leave you feeling ‘touched out,’ but some special snuggle time with your wife can help revive that, even before sexual intercourse is allowed or wanted. Sooner the later, she will want ‘it’ too. Let's just reach that time and space mutually.

On slow days, feel free to resort to masturbation. There is nothing bad or unhealthy about it. The perfect way to let out the steam.

Quality not quantity

But getting back to your main concern, remember that bedtime might not always be the right time. Nor will the bedroom always be the right place. Try out different places to have sex!

Remember ultimately it's all about quality, not quantity: You don't have to have sex every night, maybe just every week – or whatever suits you, there is no right or wrong. Figure out what timing is right for you.

Take your time. Having sex before you are ready (your mind or your body) can be potentially harmful to your relationship. So don’t think short term, take it slow and easy, and you will indeed reap the benefits.

To protect the identity, the person in the picture is a model and names have been changed.

Ki kya yeh koi beemari karta hai, so nahin.Lekin kya yeh aapko sahi lagta hai, sawaal yeh hai, yadi nahin toh mana kar deejiye aur unhe samjha deejiye ki aapko yeh theek nahin lag raha.

Arun beta, isse Anal sex ya guda methun kehte hain. Yadi dono partners ki poori sehmati hai isse karne mein toh kar saktay hai lekin wo part bohot dry hota hai jiske liye koi chiknai Jaise KY jelly ka istemal kiya ja sakta hai ya chikanai yukt condom bhi use kar saktay hai, yadi condom ka istemal kiya jaey to koi side effect nahi hai. LEKIN, yeh jaan lijiye ki Har koi hark kism ke sex ke liye tayyar nahin ho jaate – isme unki marzee honi chhaiye. Yadi unhe yeh pasand nahin toh iska matlab hai, NAHIN.

Arti beti, actually yeh poori tarah se na, ladki ki mahavari pe depend hota hai, yadi woh bilkul nirdharit hai ya nahin jiski vajah se bohot hi risk ka kaam bhi hai. Yadi aap bina kisi protection ke ya bina surakhsha ke sex ki soch rahi hai toh shayad aap un dino ki baat kar rahi hain jin mein bachcha rukna mushkil hai. Yeh ho toh sakta hai lekin yeh poori tarha se surakshit nahin mana jaata hai. Yadi aap pregnancy ke risk se bachna chahti hai to kisi aur tarike ke mukaable condom ka istemal hi easy aur safe tarika hai https://lovematters.in/hi/resource/safe-sex https://lovematters.in/hi/resource/fertility Yadi aap is mudde par humse aur gehri charcha mein judna chahte hain toh hamare discussion board “Just Poocho” mein zaroor shamil hon! https://lovematters.in/en/forum
Anupurna beti, sex se koi nuksaan nahi jab tak ki wo safe sex hai, yaani poori samjhdaari dono logo ki sehmati aur safety ke sath kiya gaya sex ho. https://lovematters.in/hi/resource/safe-sex Yadi aap is mudde par humse aur gehri charcha mein judna chahte hain toh hamare discussion board “Just Poocho” mein zaroor shamil hon! https://lovematters.in/en/forum
Suniye zara Bachha ladka hoga ya ladki yeh nirdharit karne ka koi bhi tarika nahi hai. Aur na hi BETA peda karne ka samjhe? Aur waise bhi bachha ladka ho ya ladki bus swasth hona chhaiye. Zara apna chintan swasth kijiye! Shaayad aap yeh bhi jaante hon ki bachcha ladka hoga ya ladki yeh kewal mardon ke shukranu hi tay kartey hain, ki un mein X chromosome hai ya Y. https://lovematters.in/en/comment/94271#comment-94271 Yadi aap is mudde par humse aur gehri charcha mein judna chahte hain toh hamare discussion board “Just Poocho” mein zaroor shamil hon! https://lovematters.in/en/forum

Preetam beta, pehle toh doctor se milkar yeh Nishchint kar lo ki yadi sab theek hai toh kuch sawadhaniyo ka istemal karte hue aap sex kar sakti hain, Lekin Jab aap tayyar feel karein, ready hon, koi dard ya takleef mein na hon… aur yaad rakhiye, ki aap kabhi bhi pregnant ho sakte hain. So take precautions. https://lovematters.in/hi/news/sex-after-pregnancy-how-can-i-tell-him-im-not-ready Yadi aap is mudde par humse aur gehri charcha mein judna chahte hain toh hamare discussion board “Just Poocho” mein zaroor shamil hon! https://lovematters.in/en/forum

Bete shuru se third month tak aur phir saatvein mahene se le kar, Iss samay avoid kijiye. Jo aapko ko pasand ho woh hi kijiye, jo doctor salaah de woh bhi samajh lijiye. Aur dekho bête behtar hoga ki aap condom ka istemaal karein. Ya phir discharge andar NA hone dein. Aur haan! Last months mein definitely safety rakhiye. https://lovematters.in/hi/news/sex-during-pregnancy-top-five-facts Yadi aap is mudde par humse aur gehri charcha mein judna chahte hain toh hamare discussion board “Just Poocho” mein zaroor shamil hon! https://lovematters.in/en/forum
Mam main roj might marta hun mera L**d pura kamjor pad gaya h jyada time sex nhi Hota dalne se pehle hi discharged ho jata hun Please kuchh upay bataye
Vaibhav beta, aapki problem ki wajah hastmaithun nahin ho sakti kyunki hastmaithun ek safe/surakshit tareeka hai apni santushti karne ka. Isse koi nuksaan ya beemari nahin hoti. https://lovematters.in/hi/resource/men-masturbating https://lovematters.in/hi/news/i-could-masturbate-anytime-anywhere https://lovematters.in/hi/making-love/sex-problems-how-to-overcome-them/are-my-sex-problems-caused-by-masturbation Relax! Jaldi viryapaat hone se koi baat nahin, don’t worry. Toh sabse pehle toh apni partner ki body ko samjh lo- usko time de do. Aur yadi shareer mein uttejna adhik ho, sex ki bhavna zyada hogi toh sheegra hi patan hone ki sambhavna bhi adhik ho sakti hai. Aisi stithi mein, partner par focus badhana, foreplay, yaani bete ki pravesh karne se pehle bahut se alag alag kriyaen karna , jinse dono ko anand mile, apne partner ki uttejna badhana, yeh sab activities sabse zaroori hain. Iske ilava, partner ke saath sex karne se pehle, ek baar hast maithun kar saktey hain, utne samay pehle jitne mein ling mein tanaav aa jaaye. Condom ka istemaal bhi jaldi discharge kum karne mein madadgaar saabit ho sakta hai. https://lovematters.in/hi/news/premature-ejaculation-top-five-facts Yadi aap is mudde par humse aur gehri charcha mein judna chahte hain toh hamare discussion board “Just Poocho” mein zaroor shamil hon! https://lovematters.in/en/forum
