Almost Sexless marriage normal?

Is it normal to have few to almost no sex in a marriage? We got married 2 years plus only. And Like just maybe.. 2-3 times a year? And we do have a year + old infant with us. Last we did together was more than a year after giving birth lol… Husb always rejecting and says he’s tired. Tried talking about this whole thing to him as felt kinda neglected like which guy doesn’t want sex..? But everytime I bring this topic up he kinda brush me off. But his reaction is always the same like whenever I try to make a point he will either just keep quiet or just say tired. Or when he fed up that I keep asking why he doesn’t want, he will respond with together simple and happy why want to create issue. To him no intimacy isn’t a problem. And I can confirm that it’s not like there’s another 3rd party cause we spent most times together. Can I accept that it’s just his way of loving is through other means and sex is just not one of it? Just felt that no sex is like no intimacy. Then we are together is just like a partnership to have a family and kid that’s all. Also at times don’t feel that we are a couple..? I’m getting used to this situation but Is this situation normal in marriage?

To be honest i also encounter the same issue as u. We also have 1 kid and he said exactly the same as what u have explain here. I did always mention that we're look more like roommate instead of marriage couple and he just bruise it of with tired and we're not young anymore ( and we only in early 30ish ) I also mentally stress due to this issue and would like to get some advice regarding this matter. the worst things is he would like to have more kids. but i dònt like to do it just for the shake of having baby. i feel very bad about it.

this issue is actually quite common. Anyway by the time u guys are past 40s the sex drive will also likely plummet so try to look past this issue and focus on his other strengths

Have a heart to heart talk with your hubby. Ur heart is telling you that something is not right, even if it is a medical issue, share it with each other.
