Episode 25 – Intimacy (& Sex) in the Perinatal Period

Join Jen and Karlee as they talk about a bit of a controversial topic – Intimacy & Sex! This topic can be “touchy” to talk about for some people but we believe it’s important to have these conversations and normalize the topic. Throughout the entire perinatal period the dynamics of your relationship can change greatly in regards to intimacy and sex; for most people it often becomes this elephant in the room no one wants to talk about. There can be a ton of physical changes that happen during these times and it’s more important than ever to be open with your partner about how you are feeling. We hope this episode helps start some conversations and if this is something you are struggling with, please know you are not alone!
