1 month postpartum

My husband really wants to have sex and is annoyed I can't. We tried the other day and it hurt too much. Hand jobs and blow jobs don't do it for him, and I had second degree tearing so things are still a little raw.

I'm exhausted and feeling m super self conscious. I've put on so much weight with pregnancy and my boobs are huge and sagging from milk overload.

He's already made smart ass comments about the saggy boobs and about how I'm prioritizing our child over him because the kid is supposedly all that matters to me.

He comes home abdplays with the baby for a little while at night but he doesn't seem to understand that I spend all day taking care of the baby so coming home and giving me maybe an hour relief so I can heat dinner and do house chores isn't enough, especially when he's going to end up pouting or bitter that there's no sex to follow.

The last thing I want is to have sex in general; especially when it's physically painful. And I dontwant to be treated like I'm frigid, because I was legitimately excited to get back to our sex life before he started with all the pressure and bitterness.

Just needed to rant

He sounds like a ass. You shouldn’t be having sex a month postpartum to begin with. Infection is extremely likely. Tell him to grow up and stop acting like a child

Your husband sounds like an asshole no offense but you just push the baby out he can wait for sex and making comments about your boobs like grow up you just had a baby if your breastfeeding guess what stuff like that happens, your body has gone through some big changes. I would tell him to shove it up his ass and that he can wait until you are properly healed and until you feel comfortable with having sex again. You should just wait till 6 weeks anyways until you are cleared by your doctor and the risk of infection has gone down to even have sex again. clearly he doesn't care about your health and your body and what you went through he's being selfish and only thinking about himself and his needs and he needs to get his head out of his ass.

That’s absolutely disgusting of him. No way was I thinking about sex at 1month PP! Only do it when YOU feel ready & comfortable. Sorry but your partner sounds like a complete dickhead

Yeah well everything's not about you buddy, so.....Seriously though, he's being selfish. His horniness shouldn't be prioritized over your body healing properly after a major physical trauma. And, you catch more flies with honey than vinegar, so his seduction method of being unsupportive and whiny isn't exactly effective.

He’s a jerk. My husband never even brought it up until I did. Sex was the last thing I wanted for the first three months. You get married for so many other reasons then sex...
