As-salaamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullaahi wa-barakaatuh.
Brother in Islaam,
Intimacy with one’s wife is an act of worship and one is rewarded for it. Engaging in intimacy does not make the surroundings impure. Aside from both spouses performing ghusl after intercourse, there is no need to wash or change anything or anyone unless there is physical impurity on it. Your surroundings such as your bedsheets, bedspread, blankets, son, etc. remain pure and clean. Islaam is easy and simple. Advise your wife to avoid such difficulties.
And Allaah Ta’aala Knows Best.
