    I think for me it's more difficult where he doesn't understand that there is no libido!
    I can be 'coaxed' into being interested in sex if I am well-slept, the house is clean, not exhausted, kids not on my nerves, had alone time etc... all of those factors are sure to weigh in on whether or not I 'go through with it', if that makes sense.
    I am blessed with a husband who is understanding and respectful of my desires (or lack thereof) and does not push the issue, allowing me the time and space to want it (and this is a lot to do with sexual assualt and trauma in the past).

    However, when all of the factors above are good and well, and I still don't want it - well that I can't explain and that he can't understand... breastfeeding, depression, implanon ... who knows. Look forward to the article though
