Find my libido

What is it about pregnancy that gives you a higher sex drive… or is that just me? I need to remind my doctor, after this baby is born, that I need to take something that simulates the hormones in your body during pregnancy because that is seriously the only time I ever have even a smidgen of a sex drive!

It made a surprise, unexpected appearance last night. There is hope!

I found out from my mom yesterday that she had this same problem after she had kids. She said she had a major hormone imbalance and didn’t find out until she was in her 50’s. Her doctor never asked, she never brought it up kind of thing.
I think it is sad that many women go through life without any kind of sex drive at all. I’ve mentioned it to my old doctor in the past and she would just say “that’s part of having kids”. Well, do something about it!
My mom ended up being prescribed some kind of hormone cream and she said it did the job. After I’m done nursing the baby, I’m going to seriously talk to my doctor about it. If she just blows it off, I’m going to switch doctor’s. It’s not fair to my husband to go through like with a wife like this!

I just finished the book “Secrets of a Naughty Mommy… How I found My Lost Libido”. It had a lot of great things I could really relate to, but nothing concrete. It was worth reading though!
