Questions & Answers

my libido has been all over this place this time. I am 13 weeks and seem to be interested again after a 2 week dry spell before that we were doing the deed three times a week but only for a few weeks. It just comes and goes. I will want it all the time for a week or two then another week or two I want nothing to do with it. However in my first pregnancy with my son. I had zero sex drive. Ever. The whole time. We got through but then add another 6 weeks after birth to that it was a trying time for our marriage . In my first pregnancy though I too would just satisfy him orally or he would take care of it himself. Some times if your not feeling into it you can offer to talk dirty to him maybe while he takes care of things or "help him" that way you can feel semi connected or at least he can even if your not at all interested.

I don't feel like having it either. II'm 14 weeks, but I don't withhold it from my husband. So if all is well with your pregnancy then you should try and make your husband happy. It worth it :0)

I haven't had sex in a month and I'm 30 almost 31 weeks. I want it all the time but bf doesn't want anything to do with it. So guess it's the opposite for me :(

I've had no sex drive since I found out I was pregnant and DH is disappointed because with baby #1 I was insatiable! It is just a difference in hormones, he's hoping I have a girl this time since my symptoms are 180 from last time :-). We'll see if my sex drive comes back in 2nd and 3rd trimesters but if not he'll just have to take care of business on his own. He knows I still love him and understands.

I'm the same but it's because I've had 5 pregnancies in 12months I'm 8w4d. But hubby knows I won't until after 12weeks. I just make sure I attend to his needs without having sex. I so don't want it either. It's hard as they're addicts and need it not like us. Lol
Good luck sweetie.

I have been the same way, in the beginning i was so nauseous most of the time i couldn't even think about it and since that got better i have had a lot of pelvic pain which makes the thought of sex a little scary - the exhaustion of working full time, commuting and having a teething 2 year old who has not been sleeping well to take care of has not helped... luckily my husband has been very understanding about it and we just find other ways to spend time together. Hope you feel better soon!

We've had sex like 4?? Times since I got pregnant.. Am now 35 weeks. I just really have no interest, and I've been violently I'll all pregnancy. My partner respects that.. Try and sit down with him and explain why..

I'm at that point now at almost 30 weeks although in the first and second trimester I wasn't. My belly is bigger now and with the extra weight I just don't feel as attractive. Plus the baby is active when we have sex and it just feels awkward lol. It's been about 2 weeks for the dh and I but he works 3rd and works almost everyday of the week so it's hard to find time for it right now anyway. And with all the running we have to do to sporting events and stuff with the other kids it leaves me pretty worn out by the end of the day. Hopefully you will start feeling better and the desire will come back soon:).

I know the feeling. I am currently 14w3d and I haven't had sex in a week. I feel bad too, so I take care of him orally just because he doesnt want to force the issue and he won't attempt to try, so it is a nice surprise for him when I take care of him. I heard the urge does come back so hang in there.

Unless you've been told by a doctor because of recurrent miscarriage or some other medical reason not to have sex, you really don't have to do that! As a matter of fact, I LOVE sex while pregnant, there's so much blood flowing down there that it makes it just awesome;) You might not feel like it right now, but your hormones will probably change your mind sooner than later, and honestly, it's not good for a relationship to completely cut it out. Sex is safe during pregnancy unless you've been told otherwise. Get back in the saddle!!!
