I understand women sometimes do lose some of their sex drive. I've heard it can be considered "normal". I offer this information as I received it, as I am a male.

To keep sex with your partner fresh and exciting takes effort from both of you, constant work to keep sex drive alive.
Sometimes routine and familiarity, knowing what to expect does not leave much for imagination, so there is no mistery to look forward to.
Add mistery, be spontaneous, try something different, new positions, different location, sexy underwear, new toys and fantasies you may wish to try.
It may help talking to your partner, tell him how much it excites you when he did/does a certain seductive move, ask him to surprise and how much you would like to try something different.
It is not only up to you to think of ideas, share the challenge with him. Part of the fun is to share it!
I do not know your lifestyle but just an idea:
Look at your diet and exercise regime, eating the wrong foods may make you feel lethargic. No chips/creamy foods/sugar/bread more than once a week, easy on alchool/coffee and walk at least 30 minutes per day if you can.
Eat five veg/fruit a day, non processed foods, rich in zinc and vitamin C. Advocado, fish, water cress and strawberries can be an aphrodiac.
Some of the above may or may not work for you, but it should be fun to at least try.
Take care
Angel of Love
