What happens to intimacy after you have a baby?
In this episode of The Woman Within, we’re getting really honest about sex, desire, and intimacy after motherhood. We talk about finding your way back into your sexual body, navigating postpartum body changes, breastfeeding, hormones, limited time and privacy, and the mental load that can make it difficult to simply “drop in” and connect with your partner.
We also get into the harder parts: what happens when sex becomes infrequent, how resentment and disconnection can build, the importance of actually talking about what you need, and how intimacy can evolve as you and your relationship move through different seasons.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Finding your sexual self after having a baby
- Postpartum sex, desire, and changing needs
- Breastfeeding, hormones, and weaning
- Body image and learning to love your postpartum body
- Making space for intimacy with little ones around
