Summary
This study tests an online program called STORK designed to help couples maintain their sexual well-being during the transition to parenthood. The program includes weekly modules during pregnancy and one after birth, covering common sexual changes and relationship skills. Researchers will enroll 268 couples expecting their first baby to see if the program improves sexual satisfaction, reduces distress, and supports overall relationship health compared to a waitlist group.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide an accessible, evidence-based tool to help new parents maintain their sexual and relationship well-being during a challenging life transition.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial with no blinding, and the program is compared to a waitlist control, so results may be influenced by expectations. The program may not work for all couples or in all cultural contexts.
