I suspect Fatherhood is causing him a lot of anxiety and confusion, different than it is for you, but no less frightening. Twice a week is not too bad for a couple that's dealing with so much change in life's routines right now. Even though he didn't birth the baby himself, he's consumed with not only the stress of the present, but the uncertainty of what the future holds. Believe me, I was completely a basket case of nerves and even fear right after ours was born, and it took a while to become confident with my role in the three of our lives. Our sex lives suffered from all of that too, but that was 25 years ago and I wouldn't trade it for anything. And the sex is good.
The best I can offer is just try to be sweet to each other and time will pass way faster than you think, and if you both want it to, it will fall into place. You're both on a demanding mission now.
