TMI sorry but sex with husband

Vanessa
Omg sorry for the topic but help anyone...I wanna make sure I'm not the only one. But I know you can sex as long as your not on pelvic rest but me and husband went for it and it was HORRIBLE and we have always been good. And first time we tried since I found out I was pregnant and it was horrible anyone else ?? I'm 8 weeks along and this is the first I don't feel puky or headaches or a beached whale so I went for it and we terrible we both don't want to talk about it. Help me !! Will this last??

I think part of the problem is nerves. Even though you know it's safe, something may be in the back of your mind worrying about it. That can affect your body's response (which might be why you're not staying wet) and if it's in the back of his mind, can also make him just uncomfortable altogether too. You guys have to find peace with it. Our first time after finding out turned into a very emotional experience and neither one of us could finish but it was awesome. The second time was awkward and when we talked about it, we realized it was because we were both thinking about the baby and how sex was affecting it. The third time, was awesome! (We talked to the OB by that point and asked questions about it.) Haven't had sex since because now I'm on pelvic rest which is killing both of us! Lol

And that's ok. It can be awkward to talk about, especially after the fact. I've always struggled with having a filter on the things I say but maybe something like "love, I really want you right now but I'm struggling because I keep thinking about the baby... Has it been weird for you too?"

Okay well sorry for the TMI but I guess he kept complaining that my actual vaginal felt different I kept going from dry to wet to dry and wet he understands my body is changing and my breasts feel so engorged so the movement was so uncomfortable

interesting... we don't have that issue. do u think maybe you guys might be thinking to much about the point that u are prego? I'm saying this bc our mind is powerful and could be just sending mixed signals. does that make sense. I know all this seems TMI but it's real. I so understand. there is this stuff called platinum in a black bottle at Walmart that is great. it's not sticky or nasty. I say try that. My boobs were small before I was pregnant so they are not to big now... went up about a size so I agree with Kimberly about getting a good sports bra. I do know that Victoria secret carries a really good sports bra.

That never happened to me but maybe try using lube and wearing a sports bra or a sleeping bra for more support.

I think you need to explain why it was terrible  for people to really understand and relate.

What was terrible about it? I understand what u mean about finally feeling better. I was so sick until I became 8 weeks prego so it's nice to be able to be intimate without feeling so horrible.
