Feel free to tell me the correct group this post can be in!

Today my partner and I got onto the topic of having sex for the first time since our daughter was born. Next week will be 6 weeks since I gave birth, so we’re nearly in the safe zone but I haven’t yet had my doctors check up appointment.

To begin with, I’m not on any contraception yet and I plan to as soon as my schedule is back in place. Second of all, I’m so uninterested in any sexual activity, it has me questioning what the hell has even happened to me!😅

Now.. as we were speaking about intercourse, I said as I’m not on any contraception right now we need to grab ourselves some condoms. He seemed pretty hesitant on the idea, hence why I said “Yes, YES, we WILL HAVE TO GET CONDOMS.” His response was still like, “Egh.. no..” So with that, I began to talk about booking an appointment to get the implant. (I had the implant before and it worked the best for me personally, so my good experience with it definitely makes me keen to have it again.) Now this was when he began to laugh but really trying to push the idea aside. This is what confuses me..

We’ve just had a child together, surely protection is ESSENTIAL when it’s quite hard still NEWLY adapting anyway? We are still in the early days of parenthood, why in the hell would we get ourselves into that position so soon after having our first?! In all honesty it was as if he wants me on no contraception and to have unprotected sex. We ALL knows what happens in that case.

Our relationship has been a little rocky ever since our baby girl has been with us, of course it’s overwhelming and we’re in ‘parent mode’ and not relationship mode. I find myself feeling pretty resentful towards him from time to time and I hate to admit that.. but it’s true.

Can someone just please discuss this with me?😂
