It can bring you closer together and allow you to fully realize what the love and passion you have for each other can create.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But, while having a baby is beautiful, every parent knows it\u2019s also the biggest job you\u2019ll ever have. When you\u2019re dealing with a newborn, you\u2019re not getting much sleep, you\u2019re emotionally and physically drained, and you might feel lost and overwhelmed at times.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, it\u2019s not uncommon for some couples to struggle to keep up their intimacy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If that sounds like you, you don\u2019t have to lose your connection with your partner just because of your little one. Let\u2019s look at a few tips you can use for keeping your intimacy while enjoying your newborn baby.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Be Compassionate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Compassion-with-your-partner.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Compassion-with-your-partner-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Compassion-with-your-partner-16x12.jpg 16w\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Compassion-with-your-partner.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3174 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Compassion-with-your-partner.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3174\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Compassion-with-your-partner.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Compassion-with-your-partner-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Compassion-with-your-partner-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Intimacy starts outside of the bedroom. Even though both you and your partner might be exhausted, tend to each other\u2019s needs as much as possible. Has your partner been at home with the baby all day? Offer to \u201ctake over\u201d so they can get some rest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Or, maybe your partner typically does most of the housework. Step up and take on your share.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes, even just talking to your partner about their feelings can make a big difference and help both of you feel more supported.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Celebrate Your Relationship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship-12x12.jpg 12w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3175 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3175\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Celebrate-your-Relationship-12x12.jpg 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you have a baby, you immediately become a family of three. But that doesn\u2019t mean your \u201ctwosome\u201d of a relationship needs to disappear.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Almost all of your attention will be on your little one, of course. However, don\u2019t forget to focus on each other and your relationship needs. Your relationship should still be celebrated and appreciated the same way it was before your child was brought into the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. It\u2019s the Little Things<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You don\u2019t necessarily need a grand gesture or getaway to cultivate intimacy in your relationship. In fact, it\u2019s the little things that make the biggest difference.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Slip a note into your partner\u2019s coat pocket. Send them a text message during the day letting them know you\u2019re thinking about them. You can choose to make these as loving or even as \u201csteamy\u201d as you want. The idea is that small gestures add up, and fuel intimacy throughout the day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Practice Self-Care<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You might initially wonder how taking time for yourself can keep your intimacy strong. But how could it not?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Take-Care-of-Yourself.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Take-Care-of-Yourself-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Take-Care-of-Yourself-16x12.jpg 16w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Take-Care-of-Yourself.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3176 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Take-Care-of-Yourself.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3176\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Take-Care-of-Yourself.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Take-Care-of-Yourself-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Take-Care-of-Yourself-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Again, having a baby can be overwhelming. If you\u2019re exhausted and overwhelmed, it\u2019s not likely you\u2019ll be \u201cin the mood\u201d. You might not even want to spend time with anyone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, it\u2019s incredibly important to take care of yourself. Find time every day to do something that promotes your well-being. It could be mindfulness or meditation, journaling, exercising, or cooking something you love. Self-care is more than just a buzzword. It can greatly impact and improve your mental health, so you can be a more present partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Schedule Time With Your Partner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a while, after your baby is born, you might feel you barely have time to breathe. Every free second you have might be dedicated to sleeping. But, that isn\u2019t sustainable for long.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you get into a routine with your little one, consider scheduling regular time with your partner. That might seem silly, at first, especially if you live under the same roof. But, scheduling a \u201cdate night\u201d or even setting aside an hour for a conversation on the couch can be impactful.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Spend-time-with-your-partner.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Spend-time-with-your-partner-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Spend-time-with-your-partner-16x9.jpg 16w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Spend-time-with-your-partner.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3177 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Spend-time-with-your-partner.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3177\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Spend-time-with-your-partner.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Spend-time-with-your-partner-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Spend-time-with-your-partner-16x9.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Scheduling time shows you\u2019re making your relationship a priority. It boosts your connection and can be something that you look forward to as a couple.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Intimacy takes time. After having a baby, it can feel you\u2019re \u201cstarting over\u201d. Really, though, you\u2019re re-dedicating yourself to your relationship, your partner, and your love life. Keep these tips in mind to keep your intimacy levels strong while you enjoy everything about being a new parent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Couples Connection: 5 Tips for Keeping Your Intimacy While Enjoying Your Newborn Baby Posted by Soribel Martinez, LCSW Having a baby is one of the most amazing things a couple can do.
