ACK! First of all, I know I am not asexual. My husband and I used to have a VERY active and healthy sex life. After we had our son (5 years ago) my sex drive plummeted. Every now and then I get an urge, but it is very infrequently. Even when being stimulated by him/vibrator/self, my body does not respond.

I want to want sex. I am 30 and should be in my prime. I am not on any meds... even birth control. (He had a vasectomy.) My GP has checked my hormone levels and I am completely healthy. My son spends the night with his grandparents frequently, so that's not an issue. I'm not even stressed right now. (Teacher with the summer off.)
Things that used to turn me on do not work anymore and even in the middle of sex, my body does not react. I hate to say it, but I sympathize with Miranda on SATC movie: "Let's just get it over with."
I wish it were a phase, but this is becoming a 5-6 year phase.

What gives? Anyone else with this problem? Anyone know a way to help my body get with what my mind wants?
