The Link under “Part 3” didn’t work. Any chance you can correct or repost the right link?
It is fixed now. Thanks for letting me know about the broken link.
I don’t know where to post questions for discussions, so I am just posting here because that seems logical.
Growing up I have always been lucky enough to be able to look at myself in the mirror and know I was an attractive person. After being married for years, and having a wonderful happy and healthy sex life my husband and I had our first child. I had assumed that since I am a fairly healthy person, active, and breastfeeding that I would get my body back fairly quickly, however that was apparently an unrealistic hope. My husband is wonderful and his attitude about my sexuality and attractiveness hasn’t changed, however I have been having a hard time finding that in myself. I still enjoy sex, however I am more insecure than I have been. What do you recommend for recent mothers for overcoming their own self-image and reconnecting with their sexual selves?
Nice page!
Loved her answers! This is the first podcast I’ve heard and all 3 issues on my heart were here! Thank you!
