Keep the faith, it will happen...you might need some extra help if you're having problems judging whether you're doing the exercises right...that loss of sensation can make it a bit trickier. Believe it or not there are physios & nurses who deal specifically with female problems like this - so might be worth chatting with your dr and finding one.

BTW I doubt your DH will ever notice the difference...let's face it, if it's been a while, it's unlikely there will be any complaints
