My boyfriend has lost all interest in sex since our baby boy was born

I’m 24 and my boyfriend is 26. We have been together for three years.

Sex was never amazing but I love him. Now he always turns me down. I’ve basically given up trying.

He says he works too hard to want sex. We have sex just once every three or four months and even then, there’s nothing in it for me.

He doesn’t care. I’ve put everything into this relationship. Do I stay with him for our son’s sake?

DEIDRE SAYS: Not if your relationship is very unhappy but you must discuss what’s going on before making any lasting decision.

Some men find it difficult to feel sexy about the mother of their child.

They can’t get the image of childbirth out of their head or feel guilty about having put you through a painful experience.

My e-leaflet Sex Play Therapy can help.
