Has your sex life been put on the back burner since you became a parent? Do you find yourself struggling to get in the mood or to have the same spontaneous arousal as your partner? Or, do you have the feeling that you are somehow sexually broken? You are not alone! Women’s sexual desire is not the same as men’s, and it’s time you stop comparing yourself to your male counterpart and learn what it takes to have fulfilling and pleasurable sex. So, how can you create the sex life you want?
