Keri,
I think that I had a hard time with this too.. although I had a c-section, so I had an excuse for a while.. I think that you have to work through the emotions that you are feeling about what it means to "have sex" for you.. like you said

I think that in time you will feel differently about it. It took some time for me to trust my body and let myself feel the connection with my husband again. I hate condums too, but was able to find the kind that don't irritate me. We lost Luke full-term, as you know, and my cycles are back to normal I think. We may be trying again the end of the summer August.. that will be around six months. I also wanted to asked you a question regarding the loss of Grace. I know that when I came to this board there were only a couple of women who knew of the clotting disorders. Since I have been talking about my results there have been two or three women who have tested positive for a clotting d/o.. I was wondering if you have even thought about this? I think that it would be very helpful to rule this out for you due to your losses. Later if you decide to conceive again it will be important to know so that you will be able to take precautions, and you can rule this out as a cause. If you want more info I can get it to you.. I hope that you will find peace with this
And about the sex.. give yourself a break!! And you know that anything here is appropriate, especially when you think it is important!!
I will be thinking of you and Grace!!

I think part of it is that for the past three years, if I wasn't already pg, sex was about trying to make a baby (mostly). |
