Has your sex life changed ?

Question

My husband is completely weirded out by having sex because I'm pregnant. Plus I have been really sick through the whole thing. It's really worrying me. Before I got pregnant he wanted it all the time. Now he has no drive, we have sex maybe once or twice a month. He even has a hard time getting or staying hard. Even though he tells me I'm beautiful. I'm feeling fat, unattractive and extremely frustrated. Would love to hear if I'm alone in this or is this something that occurs often. He has been great with taking care of me but out intimacy and connection has faded romantically . I'm so scared!!

Answer

This is me, currently. We've had sex once a month since we got pregnant. All romance has gone out the door although he tells me I'm beautiful every day. It's not the same. I worry he's not happy. We've been together for 7 years, I know he's not going anywhere but I miss that connection with him. I've been talking about it though so hopefully we can both share how we feel and feel better.

Answer

It has definitely changed for me and my husband. We used to have sex quite a bit but now it's rare. At first it was me having no sex drive because I was tired all the time and just not feeling 100%. Now that I have my sex drive back, he's too scared to hurt the baby or me so it doesn't happen much. The last time we had sex I couldn't get him to finish. He was too worried about hurting me and he had a little too much to drink. I felt horrible and he kept trying to make me feel better. I looked up different positions and told him the ones we could try but we still haven't done anything.

Answer

Funnily enough me and my SO have sex more now I'm pregnant than we did before I was. We do it 2-3 times a day if we get chance. He's very attracted to me carrying his baby and because he makes me feel so sexy my sex drive has rocketed! Different things happen to different people. Pregnancy is a funny old thing lol don't feel disheartened about anything

Answer

I wish I never thought I'd hear my self say that al the moment I hate sex wish he would leave me alone he's all over me all the time and I'm sick off it X

Answer

For the first time ever my drive matches my husband's lol I'm good with getting it 1-2 times a week. It's still great,just limited on positions

Answer

I don't have much of one...he does! And I try when he wants to, I just feel uncomfortable sometimes. I'm almost 25 weeks and the last couple of times have freaked him out lol bc he will feel her move against him 😂😂

Answer

Yes but not for Hubbys lack of trying. I've had zero sex drive it's been about a month...I am seriously ok until after recovery haha. Poor baby

Answer

We have stopped too. Which reminds me I should probably give him oral tonight. I feel so huge and unsexy right now. And baby moves so much all the time so I just know she's gonna move with all the outside movement going on.. And that's gonna freak me out big time.
