intimacy and multiple miscarriages

I have had multiple losses in the last year and lately have not wanted to be intimate with dh. I am wondering if this is normal. I have been feeling down lately and very unmotivated to do much. When dh tries to kiss or touch me I push away and I feel very bad about it after. Does anyone have experience with this?

I dont have experience with MC, (my IVF failed all the time). You sound a bit depressed, which is normal as you are grieving your loses. It sounds like your loses were in the last 8 months, give yourself time, be kind to yourself. If you're not ready for sexual intimacy, have a date night with not touching.

Did you or do you discuss your feelings with you husband? I would encourage you to do so, or see a therapist.

Re: intimacy and multiple miscarriages

Yes. I felt very grief stricken following my miscarriage in May. I think it can be hard to reconnect physically afterwards too given all the emotions and sadness. I think you just may be feeling down given all the pain and loss you've been through. Maybe you'd benefit from a support group, therapy, or some other forum in which to discuss your feelings? Also, maybe get a physical to see if it's something medical or hormonal. I hope it gets better for you soon.
