What is wrong with me?

Question

I had my son 6/2 and I just don't want nothing to do with hubby. Poor thing his like a puppy wanting affection and even wanting to have sex but I just can't. I don't want him near me, I don't want his affection. Why I'm I feeling like this? Why do I reject him? How can I change the way I feel?

Answer

This is normal and very common post partum. Your baby is demanding all your time and attention right now so it can be difficult to have anything left to give to anyone else. Additionally many moms feel "touched out" from nursing baby all the time and just don't want to be touched. I know it's not great but take comfort in the fact that it is normal and talk honestly with your husband. It won't be like this forever! For now, try to connect with him by doing small things you enjoy together. Maybe watch a show or movie together or cook a meal.
Don't beat yourself up over it, there is nothing wrong with you, you are doing great!

Answer

Try just touching him more often. Sometimes it's easier than being touched and can really make someone feel cared for.

Answer

Do you feel like the baby demands all ur attention and when u finally get some you time, hubby wants attention? I can understand that. Explain how u feel to him. This is such a hard time for you, he needs to try to be understanding. It's only a season!

Answer

I'm 3 months pp. The first month, my husband would try to kiss me or cuddle me and I would get irritated and brush him off. Now I feel much better..maybe when baby falls asleep, I say tell him how your feeling ans ask him for a back rub...A GOOD ONE (I know how men are) and let him know it might relax you
