How couples navigate sexual intimacy after pregnancy loss

My wife and I both lost our sex drive after our miscarriage eight months ago and we don't know how to talk about it because grief and desire feel impossible to hold at the same time. We're afraid that wanting each other again means we're moving on from our loss, but not wanting each other is making us feel like strangers who happen to live in the same house.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are caught between honoring their grief and honoring their aliveness, as if these were mutually exclusive rather than part of the same human wholeness.
