How To Keep Intimacy Alive During The Fertility Journey

I'm excited to welcome Denise Wiesner to the podcast.

We’re digging into restoring intimacy during the fertility journey.

She has a Bachelor’s of Science in Exercise Kinesiology (UCLA), a Master of Arts in traditional Chinese medicine (Emperor's College), and is a certified sex coach.

When we are on the fertility journey intimacy can take backseat. It can feel like lovemaking has been replaced with baby making.

Playfulness and fun in the bedroom can turn into sex on a schedule.

Which can lead to a lot of pressure and potentially more stress.

Infertility can either bring you closer together as a couple or potentially tear you apart.

Let's talk about how to improve our sex lives – so it’s not just about sex during our fertile days.

In this episode you'll learn:

1) What to do when sex is no longer associated with pleasure and how do we get back the playfulness. How to increase intimacy outside of the bedroom.

2) What if you think you should be having a certain type of sex (making love) instead of the sex you want (because it doesn’t feel right to make a baby?)

3) Plus is it okay to have an orgasm after IVF? Why we should say vulva instead of vagina. And pelvic floor health for both men and women
