Do/did your SO feel weird about having sex while pregnant?

Question

How did y'all overcome it? Mine isn't worried about hurting the baby, he's just weirded out by it. I'm 22 weeks pregnant and horny. We haven't had sex since September and it's not fair to me.

I DONT WANT TO HEAR FROM THOSE WHO HAVE THE OPPOSITE PROBLEM!

I AM JEALOUS OF YOU, AND DONT WANT TO HEAR ABOUT HOW HE CANT KEEP HIS HANDS OFF OF YOU. THANKS.

Answer

I didn't get sex after about 4 months he was weirded out about it getting in the baby or her being poked in the head lmao!!! Then I mistakenly asked well what are you going to do when you stick it in and feel her kick?? Lol I should have just shut up

Answer

I have no advice. I don't remember the last time my husband and I had sex. I'm 28 weeks and he's in the midst of law school exams. Stress is high and either one or both of us is exhausted at any given time. And now that the baby is kicking hard and often he's a little weirded out. He doesn't want to feel the baby kick while we're getting busy. Just know that you're not alone!

Answer

As a husband you should be able to communicate with him. He should be receptive of your feelings and be intimate with you. Open communication is best, and if he doesn't care about your feelings then I'm sorry to say this but he's selfish.

Answer

Just lay on your side and do it...tell him the baby floated to the side also and won't feel a thing lol

Answer

We still have sex regularly but he will not put his hand anywhere near my belly. He's afraid he'll feel the baby move. 
It took a while for him to be "ok" with having sex while pregnant though. In the beginning he was afraid he'd hurt her or poke her head.

Answer

I'm 33 weeks and We just got a little busy the other day it was great we couldn't do my favorite position which is doggy style .... the last time we did it before the other day I was in so much pain and I was crying I was 26 weeks then ... but I don't want sex as much as I use too ... I'm too tired and uncomfortable, talk to him about it and see what he says

Answer

I don't see why anybody would be offended by what you said, I just think you're being honest...  it's weird how people try to police one another around here. Let people express themselves ffs. Anyway, it's really common for men to be weirded out by pregnant sex. Maybe you can bring him to the doctor with you next time you go and have the doctor explained to him that sex is safe during pregnancy.

Answer

I am almost 31 weeks and we have done it maybe once a month if that. It has nothing to do with me but the fact that the baby kicks him and he can see or feel my belly move and it freaks him out. In his mind his daughter is right there (which she is) but it's mentally really weird for him. I miss sex too but I am okay if we don't have it more often. Plus now I am too big and tired to want it lol just talk to him if it's a big deal but make sure you see it from his side too.

Answer

As it got closer to the end of my pregnancy, the less he touched me. He wanted it, but was weirded out by the big ole belly. He was also scared he would send me into early labor.

Answer

Just take it when he won't give it lol. Wait til he's dozing off and start getting frisky. That's about the only way I can get my man to do anything at this point *33+4* and it's not that he doesn't want to or is afraid to hurt baby either...but with two older kids and work and such, makes it hard to find the time.
