    Sorry but i need to get this off my chest.....

    MY h2b hardly comes near me in the bedroom anymore. We have 1 daughter aged 3 and both work full time so i know that at times we are really tired but uve got 2 also work 2 make a relationship work havent u?

    I dont no wot it is with him, like we went out at the weekend for a friends birthday party and every1 at the party complimented on how lovely i looked, and all our friends and their partners etc were all over each other all nite and he didnt come near me let alone say that i looked nice........

    just had 2 get it off my chest and wondered if anybody else is in a similar position? xx

    We have only done the full deed once since our daughter was born (she is now 18 months old!!!). Not through choice though - she's always been a very difficult sleeper - and we're still co-sleeping! However, we are in the middle of sleep training and taking small steps, but so far it's going really well! Hoping to have her settling herself in her cot by the wedding which should be doable the rate we're going! Our relationship is still good though - we know it's not forever and we can go back to being 'lovers' soon rather than just mummy and daddy!

    Maybe hes stressed!

    im in a kinda similar situation but my H2Bs reasons are made very clear to me.

    For just over a year now he has been having problems preforming.
    He can he just cant get to the finish line.
    It because of all the tablets hes on but it doesnt make it any easier. Hes also been told he has low testosterone levels due to his tablets.
    All this started when we decided to try for a baby which really knocked me for six.
    Last time he managed to preform properly was christmas eve!
    We try when we can but we dont enjoy it as much as we used to. I work random and long hours which doesnt help either.
    Hes got tests etc all happening to get it sorted and is hopefully getting some testosterone replacement to help boost his labido and maybe get things back on track!

    Maybe suggest to him you have a night alone. Get a babysitter book a hotel and buy some sexy underwear.

    i was in a similar situation but it has been me in the past that doesnt want that kind of intamacy. I find it hard to tell h2b how i am feeling so when i have had confidance issues or anything i tend to push him away and i get so used to nothing happening i dont know i find it difficult to initiate anything, h2b has said he feels like he is begging which makes me feel bad i dont kno i just thought i would share it with u as i have been on the other side. Its the only part of our relationship that causes problems so i am working on it and h2b is helping!

    i like weemintymonkies suggestion, some time alone?
    got a 12 week old baby boy here and we've only managed it twice and it freaked h2b out doing it through pregnancy....BUT....he is very complimentary and loving which i can't complain about,can you talk about it or does it not really go anywhere (the chat ;) )

    Our's isn't that regular - especially at the moment....It took me a while to come round to the idea of it after my dad died, I got a bit creeped out that he was watching or something silly like that! We've talked about the lack of regularity before and agreed that it's something that we need to work on, but it's never really improved.
    I'm hoping that when I've lost some weight and feel more confident about my body that will help - also if I manage to get to bed at a decent time will help as well!! (typing this at 1:45am!!)

    I was on cerazette too and decided to come off it becuase it killed any want to get intiamte and made me crazy hormonal around my period.

    Since then I go through phases, we also have 14 month daughter, so we're both exhausted come bed time. To be honest sometimes I'm not sure why, but I just really do not want to have sex but then I do I want to everyday!

    So we go from maybe none for 2/3 weeks to 4/5 times in a week and then back to none. The fact that h2b is using condoms really kills the mood :(

    if u not wanting to get pregnant understandable the reason for condoms :) but ok that makes me more understanding why i do not feel like wanting it so much no more... since i've been on it...
    might be changing to a different contraception than but any suggestions???

    tweedwedding - I felt like that - I put a lot of weight on after having our daughter so didn't feel even slightly attractive, but now I've lost weight and feeling a bit better about myself I really want to try and get things fired up again lol!

    Condoms are a killer but can use the pill anymore so have to use them as not ready to have baby. I think the problem is most men and women think that people are having s*** every day when in the real world I think the avervage couple has s*** once a week!!

    Your not alone hun, me an my h2b only have s** once every couple of months if im lucky, cant really talk with him about it as he isnt someone who is open in talking about stuff, altho one excuse he gave me was that he dont like doing it much because it becomes boring and too routine (which i somewhat agree with but then a part of me thinks its just c.r.a.p) he is 30 and im 23, it bothers me bcos he is my first proper lover (my last 5 experiences have been one off's were men have used me by convincing me they wanted a relationship, got what they wanted then dumped me) and he is the first guy its ever been enjoyable with and he makes me feel comfortable in my body an skin (difficult when i've never liked myself) so now that the honeymoon period is over now we've been together almost 3 years our s** life is non existant yes it does bother me cos he has gone from seeming to having a high s**drive to nothing and i often question myself..... But i deffo agree with these ladies make some alone time for you both and buy sexy underwear and pamper each other and re discover each other and all the likes and dislikes and hopefuly it will re capture the spark and love xx

    Im on cerezette....dont have problem with my s** drive, thou h2b is always tired dont get it as much as i would like but i do have serious problems with irregular bleeding and period that can last up to 6 weeks at a time!
    I had the same problems with the injection and i cant have the other pill because of having cholestasis with both my pregnancies.

    I think most couples go through this..... we dont have kids... but I work shifts and H2B works 9-5 so its sometimes difficult for us to get time together, so haivng s** can be quite difficult. Im quite lucky coz my H2B is fairly open about it and we do talk about it.
    I agree with some of the ladies on here tho... sounds like you need some alone time

    I don't know about you but it's slightly comforting to know that others are going through this too - I think Vicky's right, I sometimes worry that everyone else is just constantly doing 'it' and that there's something wrong with us as neither of us really seem to make an effort...

    I'm so glad this topic is here I thought it was just us in this situation! Only thing is it's me that doesn't want it. I thought maybe it was my pill I'm on the ones in the purple box lol is that cezerret? I feel really guilty cos I feel like I'm always the one to say no. I'm hoping it's the pill or stress with the wedding/work otherwise I have no idea why lol. I make the promise to myself after every period that I'm gonna make the effort to initiate things but don't seem to be able to maybe it's a confidence thing.

    i think this is very common with couples and can go through stages, me and my h2b go through phases we can go months not having s**, we are still affectionate with eachother and have time where we snuggle up, i think we just become lazy, i always say im to tired lol, just speak to h2b and tell him how you feel ask him if he is ok and is he stressing over anythink

    It's strange how cerazette can seem to effect libido. I'm thinking of trying the coil? Any other coil users out there have any advice? I used to be on mcgroynon (not sure how it's spelt) but it gave me awful headaches and trying to take the pill everyday at the same time with a one year old?! paaaah dream on!
    And risking it isn't an option I don't want anymore children till after wedding, I need to fit into my dress lol!

    well h2b and I have sometimes times where we not having it for over a months... its so hard sometimes i do feel a bit less wanting it as i used to due to the pill i reckon... but than on the otherhand sometimes thinking h2b doesnt find me attractive but I think this silly thinking is just in my head... not easy sometimes if u just haven't had it for a while guessing lots of women feel like it though xx

    my h2b never says i look nice or compliments me really so i find im the one that tends to just go sleep but thats because i have lost all my confidence and just dont feel sexy and he dont make me feel good so just dont feel like jumping on him lol, maybe hes just tired hun or just like my h2b and just dont think about telling you that you look lovely, hope you work something out though hun xx

    Me and H2B probably average twice a week and I probably initiate it about once a month. It is pure laziness on my part. when I have been running round after a toddler all day and then struggled to get him to sleep i just want to colapse but I get guilt tripped into doing it. It's funny though because i'm always really happy we have done it after lol, i just need more encouragement thatn H2B He's always got the horn.
