My handsome husband and I didn__ make love for almost six months. I was enraptured, lost to my old life, and, in this obsession, disregarded author Ayelet Waldman _ who famously wrote of her 'smug well-being' and 'always vital, even torrid' sex life in the wake of childbirth: I ignored my husband as a man. Instead, I revelled in him as a different thing altogether, far more seductive and important, and infinitely more resonant. My husband was no longer just a man: he was the father of my child.
