Something that almost all new parents have to deal with (alongside raising a tiny human) is a change in their sex life. Chances are your libido is shot, you're sore down there, you're exhausted and annoyed at your partner for even breathing too loudly, and have a baby hanging off your boobs most of the time. None of these things are particularly erotic, so how can you ensure you're connecting with your partner romantically and physically?

Today Tegan and Leigh speak to sexologist Aleeya Hachem from the Australian Institute of Sexology and Sexual Medicine, who has a four month old herself and is passionate about helping women pre and postpartum.

Plus, our weekly Nails and Fails, including crying over a sold cot and a white lie about a bear.

THE END BITS
