LET'S TALK ABOUT SEX BABY


(I AM ABOUT TO GET VERY PERSONAL RIGHT NOT!!!!)
I don’t know if it’s just me or what…before my daughter was born sex was something I couldn’t get enough of. My friends would joke that I was like a rabbit. Which to some point I was (except for the million babies) but not lately I am just always tired.
Now it pisses Mr. New & Improved because he’s a nympho and wants it all the time. How do you get a man to understand that you’ve lost your tickle? But an even better question is how do you get it back? Maybe I lost it because I put on a few pounds or maybe my diet needs to change or maybe I need a little bit more help around the house. I don't know????
I wanted to get my tubes tied because I am 100% sure that I do not want anymore kids but then as I started doing some research there is this thing called “Post tubal SYNDROME” and all need is another problem with my body... after my daughter was born I put that birth control “Norplant” in my arm which in turn reversed my period causing me to bleed for like three weeks and like not have my period for 1 week and it sucked.

So I really don’t want to do anything else to me that might cause my hormones to go crazy again. But I do hate the fact that I am always tired. I am waiting for my insurance to kick back into effect because although I have HUGE fear of doctors (I have a fear that once everything is going good in my life like now I’ll go to the doctor and find out something is wrong…I know pretty childish) I have to find out what is wrong with me. And pray and hope that it’s something small like:
1. anaemia - which is very common in women, because of iron loss during their periods (and in childbirth).
2. Anxiety (cause let's face it if I am always worried it hard to want sex let alone feel sexy)
3. post-baby coolness (PBC): this is the term coined for the extremely common loss of libido that occurs after childbirth. It is almost certainly linked to the violent changes in hormones that occur at this time, though oddly enough, no clear-cut changes in hormones have ever been identified. The general trauma of childbirth also plays a part - and after having a baby, many women are simply too exhausted to think about sex! (I found PBC on the internet)
