Sex in pregnancy

I have just found out I’m 3 weeks pregnant with baby number 2. My first is 8 months old and my husband is still in shock. To say it’s taken him a few days and moods to get his head around it would be an understatement.

When I was about 4 months along with baby 1, he just didn’t want to have sex with me. It was difficult to start with but then the bigger I got the more I didn’t mind. I don’t know if it’s because he’s still being difficult about our news, but when I mention sex he just changes the subject. I am trying to make everything as normal as possible rather than make a massive deal out of it. I figured that’s the best way to accept news like this. It’s not like we didn’t want a second, it just happened sooner than he wanted. How long should I give him or how do I approach it without sounding desperate?

Sorry I’m just wary of what happened with baby 1 and I think not having any sex for the next 9 months would cause a lot of tension between us. I just wish he was as excited as me.

Advice welcome,

Thanks x
