Sex After Childbirth 06 Jul 2007
How to put the passion back into your relationship

It’s become a maternity ward joke that women in the throes of labour will swear to their partners that they’ll never have sex with them again. Usually, though, within weeks – maybe months - they’re back in the mood. But how easy is it to act on desire, with a baby needing so much time and attention, a bedroom full of nappies and washing, and a body that feels like it’s been in a war zone? Rachel Foux, the author of "The New Mum's Guide to Sex" joins Ritula to talk about putting the passion back into relationships.

“The New Mum’s Guide to Sex” by Rachel Foux, published by Vision Paperbacks £10.99 (ISBN 978-905745-13-5)
