My SO and I have been together for almost three years. We just had our first child together 2 months ago. Our LDR started because I was extremely sick for the first 2 trimesters and couldn't work. So to ensure baby's health (as well as my own) we decided I would stay with family in Kentucky and he would stay in Vegas an continue to work. The last time we saw each other was for my birthday in Feb and I was just starting to show. Like I mentioned baby arrived 2 months ago and we are visiting Daddy in about a month. I am sooo nervous! I pretty much have my pre-baby body back except for a little bit of belly. He's a personal trainer so we always worked out and were in shape. Even though he understands I just had our baby and he loves me any way I am, I still am really nervous about seeing him. I wonder if he will still find me attractive and if I am even going to be feeling intimate. I feel like the only one in a LDR where a new baby is involved. Are there any others out there? Do you have any advice?

Congratulations on your baby!!!
I understand your nervousness. Just take things slowly if you don't feel comfortable right away. Spend lots of time cuddling and enjoying each other's company first. You could even try starting out with the lights off when you do decide to be intimate with him, until you start to feel more comfortable with him again. I really feel like you'll forget a lot of your worries once you're in his arms again.
Truly, I can only imagine that he'll be more in love with you than ever after seeing you with his child, and a bit of extra weight around your belly shouldn't turn him off in any way. I'm sure he can't wait to see you!

Welcome!
Congratulations on your new baby! I'm afraid I'm not in the same position, but if there's one thing I've been told by lots of new parents is that if they can work up the energy to have sex, they're just excited to be able to get to the point.
And I'm going to guess you're husband will be too starry-eyed looking at his beautiful child and lovely woman who gave birth to his child to care about a tiny bit of tummy. Plus then you can always work it off together...

Congratulations to you both! Having a baby is always wonderful
I wouldn't worry too much about him not finding you attractive - he's been waiting to see you all this time and I'm 100% sure that once he sees you and your baby he'll be in 7th heaven and so so happy to have you in his arms again
You're the only couple I've heard of that had a baby while being in a LDR... I bet it was difficult for him, not being there when the baby was born (and for you too). All the more reason he's going to be thrilled to see you both!
