Intimacy in a Postpartum World

The hardest part for us was getting past the physical aspects. Some women take a lot longer than the standard six weeks to heal enough for sex. In that case, being willing to try other forms of intimacy while healing helps a lot.

We found that scheduling can be quite frustrating when our little one has other plans... teething, a growth spurt, general fussiness. So we're a bit gunshy about schedules that we look forward to. Likewise weekend getaways (can't afford them). But in general, we've found creativity, keeping an open mind, and keeping relaxed about the whole thing helps it happen.
