For me the first couple of weeks after i found out i wanted sex all the time than around month 4 i went to not feeling attractive and not interested and my fiance was fine with it because he said im growing his baby and he wouldnt want to make me do anything than after a month or so i went back to wanting it. So you may change your mind too. But your boyfriend should be understanding. Its very common for women to lose interest when they are pregnant.

I'm 29 weeks and havent had any desire for sex almost the whole time i have been pregnant, but i must say when we do have sex it is much easier to orgasm.

It's not completely uncommon or unheard of to lose interest. Just let him know how you're feeling and find other ways of keeping intimate like cuddling. Sometime mom-to-be's lack of want for intercourse is a natural instinct to protect baby. I advise you to maybe have a one on one discussion with your doctor letting them know the situation. It may be awkward, but it can help.

He needs to realize that this is a crazy time and he needs to think of the health of you and the baby. In my opinion, he is the one being selfish for even making you feel guilty for a second. :) Hang in there. Sometimes doing things to him instead will keep him satisfied for awhile until you are ready.

I did, between week 4-7 I just wasn't interested. I'm more into it now but not as much as before . Body changes, discomforts and just being tired doesn't create a "mood"
