Libido after childbirth what’s going on?
“I don’t feel any desire after having a baby” is that normal?
Yes. And very common.
Here’s what affects it:
Hormonal shifts
Estrogen drops, prolactin rises and libido may take a temporary break.
Constant fatigue
Newborns don’t sleep, so neither do parents. A tired body wants sleep, not sex.
Mental overload
New identity, anxiety, pressure your brain is in full-on survival mode. Desire isn’t top priority.
Social pressure
“When are you back to normal?” this kind of question can be hurtful. There’s no deadline for returning to intimacy.
Desire comes back when your body and mind are ready. Sometimes in a month, sometimes in a year. No rush. Tenderness, rest, and support work wonders ❤️
