Being a parent is one of the best experiences that can happen to any man or woman. But many people are wondering why parenthood simply pushes out sex from our lives? Of course, many people will almost immediately say that the time that they spend for taking care of their children takes them a lot of time and energy too. But this can’t be the only reason for lack of sex. Many other factors affect the sex life of young parents. They either have lack of sex or the quality of sex is not on the same level as before.
Few extra pounds gained during the pregnancy
Many women are obsessed with their physical appearance after they give birth. It is a well known fact that after the woman gives birth she will actually weight less. It is also a fact that women are not in the same shape as they were before. Many women often look themselves in the mirror and they are not very certain if they are attractive to their partners. Asking your partner won’t help much because he will probably tell you that you look perfect but what each woman can do is taking more care for her. This means regular exercising and practicing a healthy diet. By doing these things you will increase the lost self-confidence and you can be sure that the reflection you see in the mirror will become more likeable and there is a great chance that if you are disciplined you can expect to look even better than before!
Mother figure
There are some men that simply lose sexual desire to have sex with their partner when their partner becomes a mother. For reasons that are unknown for experts, they change their own attitude toward her and they don’t want to get involved in sexual activities. Probably the best option in situations like these is to have open conversations. In case this doesn’t work it is good to advise your partner to visit a psychologist or psychiatrist that can help him find the source of his problem and help him overcome this unpleasant sex problem.
Postpartum depression
Besides being worried about the physical appearance women should probably pay more attention on their emotional state. The symptoms that something is wrong can be spotted easily. Things like sudden mood changes, unusual behavior and lack of sex drive are common for postpartum depression. This is a serious condition and in case you notice these symptoms you should seek appropriate professional help without any delays.
During and after pregnancy lack of sex drive is a very common occurrence. This is completely normal, so you should not b worried because once the body is relived fro the stress caused by the pregnancy everything will get back to normal.
The things we have mentioned in this article can truly worsen your sex life and even complicate your relationship. One easy and very efficient tool for solving these problems is communication.
