“…Although our hypotheses were formulated prior to analyzing the data, they were not pre-registered and, as such, we recommend that future studies that aim to extend these results pre-register their predictions. The current sample was representative of the demography of the Portuguese population having a first child, namely regarding age range, marital status, and socioeconomical status (INE, 2011), but it included a large proportion of couples with relatively higher education and predominantly white/ Caucasian. Despite the diversity of recruitment methods, which were inclusive in terms of diversity in gender/sex, all couples were in mixed-sex/gender relationships.…”

The prevailing narrative about sexual declines during the transition to parenthood is largely based on studies assessing the average couple, but there is increasing evidence of variability in the sexual well-being of new parents. We sought to establish distinct subgroups of couples based on sexual function and sexual distress trajectories and examine biopsychosocial risk and protective factors of these trajectories. A prospective cohort of 257 first-time parent couples reported on sexual function and sexual distress from 20-weeks pregnancy (baseline) to 6-months postpartum across 4 time-points. Biopsychosocial factors were assessed at baseline and 3-months postpartum. Dyadic latent class growth analysis identified two distinct sexual function classes (high, 85%; discrepant, 15%) and three sexual distress classes (low, 77%; moderate, 12%; discrepant, 11%). We identified biomedical (vaginal delivery, perineal tear, breastfeeding) and psychosocial (fatigue, stress, anxiety, depression, attitudes towards sex during pregnancy, relationship quality, perceived partner support) factors that can be assessed at critical time-points (i.e., 20-weeks pregnancy and 3-months postpartum) to identify high-risk couples. Current results indicate that the course of change in sexual well-being for new parents is heterogenous, with most new parents retaining high function and low distress and only a minority showing trajectories in which mothers, but not fathers, experience clinically significant and persistent levels of low sexual function and high sexual distress. These results may facilitate more nuanced approaches to the assessment and intervention of new parents’ sexual well-being.

“…Despite its contribution, findings should be interpreted considering some limitations. The current sample was representative of the demography of the Portuguese population having a first child, namely regarding age range, marital status, and socioeconomic status (INE, 2011), but all couples were in mixed-sex/gender relationships despite the diversity of recruitment methods, which were inclusive in terms of diversity in gender/sex. Also, this was largely a low-risk sample, with parents being mostly satisfied with their relationships and with their sexual experiences, and generally not distressed at clinical levels.…”

Longitudinal associations between relational and sexual well‐being in couples transitioning to parenthood

et al. 2023

There is limited understanding of the dynamic between relational and sexual well‐being as couples adjust to new parenthood, despite this being a vulnerable period for couples' relationships. This study was aimed at examining the bidirectional links between relationship quality and sexual well‐being (i.e., sexual satisfaction, sexual distress) across the transition to parenthood. We assessed new parent couples (N = 257) across four time points (two prenatal) from mid‐pregnancy through 6 months postpartum. Parallel dyadic latent growth curve modeling was employed to examine the associations between trajectories of perceived relationship quality, sexual satisfaction, and sexual distress. New parents' declines in relationship quality were associated with declines in own and partners' sexual satisfaction and with increases in own sexual distress. Mothers' prenatal relationship quality and sexual distress predicted subsequent changes in own sexual distress and fathers' relationship quality, respectively. Results indicate that changes to new parents' relational and sexual well‐being mutually influence each other over time. Current results indicate that the impact of the transition on couples' relationships is partly determined by own and partners' prenatal factors, to which clinicians and researchers can attend to early on. Cross‐domain links between relational and sexual well‐being should be considered in research and clinical practice.
