It will happen, you need time.

He needs to understand that you feel fear about it, maybe because you fear falling pregnant and it happening again.

Can you try starting with hugs and see how it goes on from there?

I had a miscarriage last year and i went through that. I was totally repulsed by that. knowing that I could get pregnant again and in the end i did and we had a beautiful baby girl but she died of sids two months ago. But it can get better. He is probably hurting too and it seems like men express it through sex by wanting to be close

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
