Pooped?: Although i can't say for sure, some possible contributors: changing diapers, giving baby bath, frequent nighttime awakenings, feeding baby, burping baby, consoling baby, walking baby, dressing baby, buying for baby & then changing more diapers. Your life focus changes and you may have little time or energy for luxuries like sex.

Many possibilities: There are many reasons you may have no sex drive 6 months postpartum. Many women, especially those who are breast-feeding find they have a low sex drive in the postpartum period which can last several months. If that is your only symptom, it will likely resolve with time. If you are having other symptoms as well, like poor mood, irritability, trouble sleeping, anxiety, then you may have a post-p.
