NO not tried counselling. Considered it but to be honest I have put no effort whatsoever in here so really should do that first... I spent so long concentrating on getting better from PNI i never even considered that side of things!
Gonna try and follow your suit though and try and have an `us' night once a week...
Let us know how you get on xx

Well, the dry spell is over!
Little one stayed at nanny's last night and hubbie and I went out for a few drinks. Then when we went to bed and .... well you know.
I didn't feel as awkard as I thought I would and it was actually quite nice, if a little bit painful. We'd spiced up our bedroom with some new silky bed sheets and it made us both feel sexy - I was surprised I actually felt like it. Kind of looking forward to next time, although still nervous about not feeling in the mood or it being painful again.
Thing is we didn't use anything so I'm really hoping I'm not pregnant next month. I think I'm far enough along in my cycle for it to be safe. We kind of got caught in the moment. Hubbie said he didn't mind if I got pregnant again, but I would like more time to be recovered before another bub comes along. Plus I want to carry on losing weight before I get pregnant again. We were silly really. Never mind. (in case you're wondering why I don't just take the pill, I don't get on with it because it makes me depressed - not a good idea after PNI).

Update: I'm not pregnant! But I have had a turn around of heart and we are going to sort of try for baby no. 2, even though I am very scared of getting ill again. We're not going to go crazy and have sex on a schedule or anything, but we're just not going to use contraception and see what happens. It'll probably take months to get pregnant like it did last time.
So I'll keep you posted ...

All the best and i'm a true believe that forewarned is forearmed! Maybe talk to your gp about it so they are on board. Enjoy trying anyhow!

Hi Monica, Thanks.
Yeah I spoke to my GP and she wants me to stay on my anti-depressants if I do get pregnant in case that will help ward off a repeat of PP. She also said when (and I love that she says when and not if) I do get pregnant I can request to be cared for by the same midwife as last time. I think that would be great as she knows me and can help look out for warning signs etc. Also she can help me decide whether to have a c-section or go for a natural delivery.
But anyway, that might be a long way off yet as this will be our first month of ttcing and it took us 7 months last time.

Hmmm, I think the issue now is my husband's sex drive! He's always so worn out that he's not interested and since my libido is still limping a bit and in recovery mode I just turn over and go to sleep too. How we will ever conceive another child I do not know!

Thanks adkin,
But don't think we need to resort to those kind of measures.
Things are much better than they were now - it's really just a case of finding the energy after running around after a lively toddler and a full day's work for my husband. But I think we'll get there in the end. Thanks though.

Sorry Natasha, you might wonder where that previos message from atkin went? I have deleted it and the member will be banned for spamming. Usually we do this as soon as we see them but having not been here it got missed.
Damn sales people spamming our site!

Thanks WG. I thought it was a bit of a weird post to be honest. Glad there is people like you mods looking out for that kind of stuff. Glad it's deleted now.

I was diagnosed with PNI in April 2008, after the birth of my second son. Id had it since i had my first son but i covered it up by masking it. I lost my sex drive and i hate it  . I can look at my husband and think 'god i want him so much' but then its the thought of getting ready and the pain i get from intercourse and i feel depressed again and not in the mood. Although sometimes i just go for it thinking 'feck it' lol. I just want to get my sex drive back cos i know if i dont then m y husband will start looking elsewhere. I know theres only so m uch a bloke can take when it comes to sex or lack of it should i say and thats what scares me the most. Loosing him because of this. xxx |
