Intimacy

My husband finds me irresistible. I want intimacy, just nothing sexual. Physical touch is his love language. He caught me wearing just a bra and panties on.

My face giving a hand job ^^^^

I'm in the same boat 😄 But I'm just going to try and be intimate with him. If it leads to sex because I'm ready, then so be it. However, if I'm not ready and he is, I'll politely decline this time and not feel guilty because it's my body, and I say when and where we have sex. Besides, I'm postpartum.

A lot of guys seem to have physical touch as their love language. It’s hard for us new mamas to be into it as much being that we are so overstimulated and tired from taking care of baby. One of my biggest fears having a child is not being able to make my husband happy. There was a point the first few weeks after birth he acted so distant from me and said I felt like just a roommate because of no physical touch. It’s rough. I’m trying to learn how to be a wife again with a baby and be a mama all at the same time. Plus housework, taking care of pets, and somewhat taking care of myself. I don’t think men know how to be intimate without being sexual.

Same sis. I still feel like my body is recovering and some days i feel better than others and im just not thinking about having sex but i do want to cuddle lol

I have zero sex drive since having our baby almost 8 weeks ago. But my husband is ready to go every minute of everyday. Wondering when I’ll feel “into it” again…

@Alaysia I'll be 6w PP next week

Ima be like ^^^ 😂🤣

@Breanna that part! Like all of it. 🎯 Im like poor guy he wants hugs and kisses but I've been nursing an infant and jumped on by my toddler all freaking day 😭 Im totally with you on wanting to please my husband but also I don't feel like it, but I give a hand so he doesn't constantly feel hurt/rejected. I wonder if there's a class or something to teach intimacy without sex 🤔

@Connie the last time we cuddled he started poking me! Lol so i have to proceed with caution

@Rachel 99% of the time is a hard no. 1% I think about going down on him but then I find him passed out on the couch smelling like work 😑 immediately no lol

I’ve got two kids, I smell like spit up, I’m overstimulated and exhausted. Don’t touch me lol

@Kate heavy on the don't touch me lol

They don’t understand how locked into mom mode you get. That baby grows inside you for months and then if you breastfeed or pump, your nipples are used for the baby so I’m not trying to have baby latched one minute and then husband on them the next 🤮
