Sex after pregnancy. We know that usually pregnancy comes from sex. So why are there so few sex after pregnancy books out there?
My new book, From Ouch! To Ahhh…The New Mom’s Guide to Sex After Baby is full of the information and resources about sex that new parents need. To read an excerpt on any electronic device (including your home computer), check it out on Amazon. And here is a full list of where you can purchase your own copy.
From Ouch! To Ahhh reassures new moms that sexual difficulties are normal after childbirth and into the toddler years and provides practical, gentle advice based on sexuality research and my own interviews with new moms. A midwife told me one of the biggest needs new parents she works with have is for information about why sex is challenging after babies: what’s normal, what to expect, and how to talk about it, this book provides it. New moms tell me how alone and uncertain they feel about their lack of libido after pregnancy and the difficulties this causes in their intimate relationships, now they have a resource for these questions, and more.
From Ouch! To Ahh walks new parents through the following challenges: body changes, low libido, exhaustion, lack of time together, mommy burn-out, sex and the breastfeeding mama, sexual communication, sexual arousal techniques, and more….It also includes a section just for dads: everything you should know about sex with a new mom. This book is for any new parents, same sex couples, and heterosexual couples, wondering about sex after pregnancy.
If you are a midwife, doula, or health practitioner who works with new moms and would like more information, or to schedule a workshop with me. (I am available for Skype workshops and in-person.) For more information, please contact me at sarahjswofford.com.
