Questions & Answers

My husband and I have sex on a daily basis for the most part, but while I'm pregnant he's a little more standoffish, especially with our first. It took my doctor telling him he wasn't going to hurt the baby for him to touch me lol or even let me get things started. Then as I got bigger it was difficult because he couldn't go as deep or he'd hit my cervix - ouch! For us it took a lot of open communication and time to get back into the rhythm of things, because I felt so unattractive when he wouldn't initiate even after a week, and I was too tired to do much of anything. We both made an effort to be more intimate in other ways, lots of snuggling, kissing, and hand holding. :)

When I was pregnant with my son, after the morning sickness went away I had a really high sex drive but hubby had nothing at all of course this made me really insecure but he assured me he just didn't feel like it, said his job had been done and now he just wanted to look after me.
For a whole 8 months we had sex twice.
Yet three days after I gave birth he was asking about when we could, I informed it was going to be a while before I was in any state to get back to doing the deed.
After TTC for over a year I'm looking forward to the break this time around.

I think if he knows that you are up for it then he will come to you but maybe he just doesn't actually have those needs at this point. So much to think of, prepare for and to do might be keeping him distracted.
Don't let it fret you hun x

Im 28 weeks and my boyfriend and I do not have sex as much as we use to or as much as I would like. I dont know what his problem is and we dont talk about ANYTHING. It is a little uncomfortable for me now with this belly in the way. I did ask him if he was not attracked to me anymore at one point before my belly was this big but received no comment.
