Need advice from married women, please. ❤️
My husband and I have a 10-month-old baby, MashAllah, and since having our baby, we have only had s3x once.
I have caught my husband ma********ng several times, and now he does it quite openly. However, whenever I try to initiate s3x or make an effort to get intimate with him, he says he is tired. I understand that he is a businessman and can be busy, but I am starting to feel that my own needs are being completely ignored.
My husband is also overweight and generally quite laid-back when it comes to everyday responsibilities. For example, after eating, he will leave his plate on the bed instead of taking it to the kitchen. I often feel exhausted because I have so much on my plate, and on top of that, I feel emotionally and physically neglected.
The most frustrating part is that whenever I try to talk to him about how I feel, he laughs it off or turns the conversation into a joke instead of taking me seriously. I feel like my concerns and needs don’t matter to him.
Sometimes, because my s3xual needs are not being met, I end up ma********ng too. I don’t know if I’m overthinking this, but I feel lonely and frustrated in my marriage, and I miss feeling wanted by my husband.
Has anyone else experienced something similar after having a baby? What should I do? How can I make my husband understand that this is affecting me emotionally and that intimacy is an important part of our marriage?
Please share your honest advice. I would really appreciate it.
