Hi, I’m wondering if, psychologically, your subconcience is relating the pain of childbirth, the ensuing tiredness, the hecticness of parenting, the financial strains this can bring etc to your husband ‘doing this’ to your relationship by you getting pregnant on your honeymoon???

Rather than rushing out the door of the marital home, think about carving some ‘couples time’ for just the two of you. Woo each other. Spent time getting to know who you are, rather than ‘parents’ who else are you?’ How’s your body image/physical health? Are you experiencing pain during intercourse and that’s a contributing factor maybe, to why you stopped? If so, book a gaenatology appointment. Is family pressuring you to have another child? If so, recognise the strain that can put on a relationship to ‘perform’ to produce a pregnancy.

Have you seen a relationship counsellor? Have you talked, alone, with your husband (with no kids around) to ask him how he’s feeling about the sexless ness of your marriage, and whether he’s thinking also that it’s time to quit the marriage, or try to work on it?
