Last night I had to tell my husband something hard. Ever since having my son 6 months ago I have no interest in sex. It's like a switch went off after having a third child and the depression got worse, affecting every aspect of my life. I feel so guilty, like I should just be able to get over it and go back to the way I used to be.

So he's always asking me what's wrong when he is trying to kiss me etc. and I finally told him I have no sex drive, but it's not him. I wouldn't have it with anybody. He was understanding about it thank goodness. Why I haven't driven that man off I don't know but I am really really grateful that he stays.

"In good times and not the best of times..." we can, hopefully, count upon our spouses/significant others.

I am also very lucky in this regard. My H is amazing.
I appreciate your post.

It will get better... in time.

Hi, maybe it's a natural thing along with the depression you have. You have 3 kids and that is exhausting in itself. Try to think more positively about yourself, I know your surprised you h is there, but there's a reason. You're a very good person at heart.
Sex is sort of the glue in a relationship, just my thoughts, but it will likely come back to you in time. I'm glad your h understands somewhat. Take care of you a bit today as well as the kids.

It sounds like you have a good H! And he may understand more than you think. Please talk with your T about this, and it might be a good idea to tell your Primary Dr., bc it may be somthing with your hormones!!!!!!!
