1 degree today in NJ. ONE! lol

Probably the coldest day of the year (I hope!)

Feeling blah today, yesterday was really busy and stressful.

I am trying to get back in the mood to be sexy with DH, but I am not feeling very sexy lately, or even any sex drive. I think he is scared to "hurt the baby" by having sex, so he has pretty much stayed away this while time. The first trimester is a scary place to be. I don't even think its that he sees me as unattractive or anything, but maybe the drive just isn't there because of my hormones?? No idea. Hope we get that back soon though, I miss him :/

Feeling good lately, that always makes me wonder how baby is doing in there. I need this doppler to come soon, reassurance can't come soon enough. Maybe it will come next week, even though it says its still in China :(

Ah well anyways time to work.

	Comment from acrichton » Posted Jan. 8, 2014 7:54am add to this that my husband and I have been arguing or bickering daily because of 1) my hormones which are awful, and 2) the lack of intimacy. This always happens when a long time passes between sex, we start to argue. It must just be the lack of, erm, release. lol

	Comment from Bammom » Posted Jan. 7, 2014 9:49am My DH did the same thing for quite a while. When I finally asked him why he just never seemed to make a move anymore (when he ALWAYS does) he told me that he could see how tired I was and he knew I wasn't always feeling well. He was just giving me my space to rest and grow our baby :) Since I have gotten more energy and hit the second trimester he has begun asking and making his moves again, but he still doesn't as often as before. It's just their way of letting you rest. I told him in an emotional fit one day that he wasn't attracted to me anymore and I think his jaw hit the floor. Our guys don't always realize how much we really do pay attention to our sex lives even if they think they are the only ones that care, lol.
	Comment from jennavee » Posted Jan. 7, 2014 9:47am I had a lower drive with my first pregnancy...combined with the fact that my husband was weird about it once I started showing lol! I This time it's been a little better, but it doesn't help that as soon as I get in bed I just want to pass out!! Stay warm today!! It's even cold in Texas....definitely not 1 degree though (might as well be for this southern girl)!
