I have been

Oya ooo,pls what has ur experience been like so far?
Thanks in advance

Hmm for me

Libido is at the lowest / non existent when I'm pregnant.
I just do it for doing sake - max twice a month.
After my first baby that weighed 3.61kg with tears ( tho they healed pretty fast)
I worried about resuming 'duty' but with the help of a lubricant it went ok tho the first two times were wierd.
But as soon as the baby started sleeping well and I had help it became so good, even better than before. Averaging 5 times a week and the result I took in almost immediately

Now I have two kids under two. It's harder. Now that we are getting into a routine and baby is sleeping better; my libido is rising

Also Post partum depression is real.
Iv suffered it with my two children. It also contributes to low libido

Chai this my epistle long o

In summary after child birth every woman should
1. Surround herself with family
2. Get / accept help (in any shape and form)
3. Get a lubricant ( at least for the first 2/3 times)
4. Be patient with the process. The libido won't go straight to 100; it will build up

For men reading this
1. Help your wives with house chores or carrying; Playing with / feeding the baby
2. Compliment her: even though her tummy hasn't gone completely flat, tell her she is beautiful; stretch mark and all
3. Take your time with fore play
4. Be sensitive to her moods: if baby had cried all day and she has had a stressful day, sex is the last thing on her mind. Just cuddle her
5. Be patient with the process too

After about 36hours of labour and strenuous delivery,
finally sent straight from heaven up above
Today, Good Friday 25th March at 00:45am
Through VB weighing exactly 4kg
Came an angel for me to love
To hold and rock and kiss good night
To wrap my arms around real tight
To cuddle and nurture and watch him play
To kiss his chic all away
To keep him safe and warm and count all his toes
To hold the tissue for him when he blows his little nose
To laugh at his jokes, to clap as he sings
To tell him all the joy in my life that he brings
To pin up his drawings and tell him it's art
To watch his first day of school on the bus all alone
To fight back the tears as I make my way back home
To applaud real loud when he's in his first football game or any sport
To help him with his homework at the end of his day
To adore and cherish and watch him grow
To guide and teach him all that I know
To see him through good times and help him through bad
To share in his happiness and cry when he's sad
To hold him close and be by his side
To watch him through life as my heart fills with pride
To help him with decisions, the best that I can
To know that someday he'll be a fine young man with his own family
...Help me praise ye thy Lord.

P.S. Thanks for all the mentions, not intended to remain silence as you can now see the reason why. Will be at the hospital till tomorrow for bed rest. BS later
Thanks so much ma'am for giving me a birthday mate.. .. May he bring nothing but joy to you and ur household ijn

The twins placenta were seen as one. It fused together, even the Doctors and midwives who delivered them initially thought it was one not until the second twin came out and they saw the placenta it was joined together by a tiny membrane. It was my husband who separated it and put in separate pots before burying it.

Ohh really urs too was seen as one? Okk, I rest my case. Thanks for the response. Earlier, when I was told the sexes I did not ask how many placenta, I just went on to start shopping as told but last week when I was referred again I decided to ask and was told one and I became confused. Would has discussed with dr yesterday if not for my mood.

God bless you.


@Cococandy, you baby is a bae, so cute. Is that you beside her? You are pimplesless, fine girl without pimples. Abeg, post jor no mind the day. Posting is the koko.

@Cutienik, thanks dear.

Abeg, mamas discuss further this libido thingy after childbirth, am interested oo. I sit down carry pop corn dey eat dey wait for more posts on libido thingy after childbirth.

My colleague and friend who had her baby in December never resume duty. I come wonder why?

@olubankemi for twins, it's at an early stage they get to see if they are sharing placenta or not.
Don't just worry your head....like one mama said, twins come with a lot of surprise.

Thank you. How ms, hope you are coping?

The Lord is your muscle.

That's pretty early oo.

But as regards having people around to avoid depression, my hubby doesn't like full house. Infact he's the reason why we are both alone. Now that am looking for house help he is giving so many unmentionable excuses which me I know it's to make me forget househelp.

He even said he prefer to hire a nurse who will come bath baby and go after bathing. He doesn't want families around. How will I cope now? If at all he want he is being selective, and those he want are busy people.

When my aunt was around to help out in my early preggy days, he would always look for something to complain about. Atimes he will ask who cook the food, when am supposed to be on bed rest oo.

Jesu jowo romilowo oooo.

Pls be careful o. I tried experimenting too when i thought the threat of miscarriage was over and i started bleeding after sex. How much more someone who has had first trimester losses. I think you should give yourself some time. I waited till 16 weeks and even after that dh was advised not to go in too deep and hard and we always give ourselves some days in between to avoid triggering anything again. Baby's life comes first before pleasure.
There are also different ways of satisfying dh for the meantime without him going in.
Other experienced mamas can shed more light

It's amazing that its my hubby who generally has "loss of libido" during pregnancy and for months after childbirth. I'm usually keen but just not used to having to ask/reach out so I just stay in my corner!

I agree though that the pressures of child care coupled with running a household can enhance a loss of desire, like hajarahbadmus said one just needs to try really hard to remain on point.

I have vowed that this time round pregnancy and childbirth will not let me generally lose control of my appearance and the state of the house..

Speaking of which lemme comb my hair its been a few days grin

Some men really don't like crowd its their nature I guess. If it'll be easier on you both and for practical reasons can you stay with someone your mum, mil or someone close for a while after babies arrive? Only if it'll work oh...

If not just work with the nurse. Having hired helps too can sometimes add to the stress at hand to be frank just that really many of us don't have a choice than to employ them!
