32 weeks and I hate sex

Allison • 28 years old, 2 miscarriages in ‘15 & ‘16. Married 💍. 💙 KJS 6/30/18 💙 BBS 4/29/22

Well I wouldn’t say I hate it with a burning passion, but I REALLY don’t wanna do it. My sex drive has been mostly nonexistent this pregnancy. I still have my “alone time” with my vibrator a few times a week but I have zero interest in penetrative sex. I don’t feel any type of pleasure and sometimes it’s uncomfortable.

I feel really bad because my fiancé wants it all the time and I can never give him an enthusiastic “yes.” More of a fineeeee, let’s do it 😂 Faking enjoyment during sex so I don’t hurt his feelings is getting exhausting, too. Tonight I literally just laid there like a dead fish because I couldn’t muster the energy to moan and scratch and cuss. I would be perfectly happy to go without sex until after this baby comes, but I won’t because I love him so much and I do enjoy the closeness. Anyone else in a similar boat?
