Starting to feel bad for FI-Sexay time related
I am so not interested in anything to do with it. Not even kisses. I haven't been since about a week before my BFP (one reason I POAS) I feel so bad for my FI, he has sort of been patient, but it has been a really long time, and I don't see my mood changing anytime soon. Have any of you had and exp with this? How do I fix it!? I want to want it, I just don't. I think we'd both be much happier if we had our sexy time back. We don't have any other issues relationship wise, and we used to be like rabbits before LO was thought of. HEEEELLLLPP. Thanks.

adult movies
once LO is asleep, watch a "movie"...there are some movies out there that have great plots, with some adult-time thrown in there.... yeah, they're still pretty cheesy, acting is bad, but you really shouldn't need much more than a few scenes to get you in the right mood.
there's a movie out there called "pirates"....go to any shop that sells movies (and some that don't necessarily sell movies, but have toys, etc)... they'll know what you're talking about, and likely have it.
not that i would know anything about these movies.

jumped ship to the new and improved nest. back to TB for baby boards.
maybe it's one of those things where you just have to get the first time over with (not trying to make it sound bad, but you get the idea) and 'force' it a little to get going. Sometimes we both go along without doing it for a while and then realize we need to just do it and then the more you do it the more you want it. Does that make sense?
Have never had a kid though, I'm sure there are lots of other hormonal/physical things involved and hopefully some other moms have advice!
Planning Bio
Married Bio
I think I have that movie...I mean...what are dirty movies?
When I've gone to Lovers they have always been really helpful. Same with Babeland.

if you've seen/own it, there's also a pirates2..... again. not that i would know.
i'd have to ask h for the names of the other "good" movies with real plots, but i really don't know the names of them.
maybe you can ask your h to watch baby for an hour while you "go to the store" and run to lovers by yourself and surprise him when you come back.

I so understand you on this one. Sexxxytime has been ruined by my surgery. I agree with Amanda, can you try to just go with it for a bit and maybe you will get into it?
Heres hoping we both get over it soon!
I may or may not have that one as well...
my currently-reading shelf:
maybe you would be a good resource for the other movies with real plots?
there was another one....i think called 2040..something about the future..there's some really really really really cheesy one that takes place in outer space.. i don't remember..the name of that parent company is the one that comes out with good ones.
regardless-- going to the store and telling them what you're looking for--something with a plot (it's easier to get into those, for me at least), they'd probably be a better resource than me

It's hard. My advice is just to try. Buy lube a previously mentioned stores. Make it fun. Worst case, it fails BUT he will appreciate that you tried.
I don't know what you're talking about...
Though the Batman parody is funny...

OMG. The candle scene is horrific.
Could you have a bit of post partum depression? Your LO is only a month old right? It might be worth going to see your doctor just to make sure.
And, take what I say with a grain of salt, I've never had kids and have no plans for kids.
I agree with Jennlin, p0rn.
But if you just get back to where you started - dating, holding hands, snuggling, long hugs, etc., that should re-spark things for you.
If you're ready, maybe have a family member come and watch LO for a few hours so you and your FI can go out and just be a couple sans baby.

Yeah, we were cleared at 4 weeks PP. (I didn't tear or anything so I was healed) We tried since then, but it doesn't work very well. Not like before, thats for sure!
I considered it as a possibility, but I've felt this way my whole pregnancy too.
I think we should get someone to sit for a few, anyways, but we might just end up falling asleep if that happened -_-
