Some help please

I can't seem to get out of my head Long enough to have sex with H.  I am super stressed about money and the new baby and everything else going on in our lives and I just can't do it.  I want to but I can't get into it to enjoy it, so we haven't in about 3 weeks, and I feel awful.

I love my H and I want to be with him but I can't seem to get past this, anyone have any suggestions.  He is super understanding and patient and never pushes me for anything, I just feel like that part of Us that was so good is slipping away and I want it back but I can't figure out how to stop the thoughts so I can enjoy it and just be with him.

  • Your pregnancy hormones may have a lot to do with it.

    Why not try a little get away weekend with your H? See if that works.:)

  • Me and my H haven't had sex in 3 weeks.  We have had a lot going on and just haven't been in the mood since we are usually very tired when we lay down. 

    I think the best thing to do even if you aren't in the mood is to just try.  That's what usually works for me.  Once we get into it and start we usually want to do it more frequently. 

  • It sounds like your life's stress is manifesting itself in your sex life.  But rather than treating the symptom you may want to treat the source.  Why not try relaxation techniques or things that can release stress for you?

  • Try some yoga classes, either as a couple or by yourself.
  • I personally think it's just a part of marriage and life's problems that we all get dropped on us from time to time. My wife and I go through little ruts like that sometimes when our problems overtake our lives but we always bounce back. The cool thing is your husband is understanding and not putting another stress on your shoulders. Don't worry about anything slipping away! Think of it as a temporary thing and when your problems simmer down  good stuff will simmer back up!!
