Sometime life gets in the way I think Specially in rough times. I'm sure you guys will come full circle and be back to romance, you just need to navigate through this bumpy patch. I think once you're better, he'll be relieved and start to go back to his old self. He's probably worried about you (they don't always know what to do with these emotions you know LOL) and stressed about it the kids probably pick up on stuff and go a bit haywire too which will stress you two even more...You said he's shy too, well that makes it harder for him I'm sure.
