Transference of Erotic Touch

"For a lot of new moms, there’s kind of a transference of erotic (not in the sexual sense). For a new mom, who’s often breastfeeding, and touching the baby, and changing the baby, and doting on the baby, a lot of intimate energy gets transferred to the baby. A lot of women I work with want to want sex, but they don’t want it. Or they feel like their intimate needs are being met."
