NC. From the outset I must say that this is not a post about a dh who is pestering etc of sex or putting any pressure on me. this is about an issue in my head that i need to overcome. DH and I have a really, really wonderful relationship. We are both quite shy people though and talking really openly about sex and things is probably a bit difficult for us.
I am pregnant after having multiple miscarriages. this pregnancy seems to be going quite well, have 12 week scan next week but had scan on monday and all is good thus far. For 3 of the MCs I discovered them/ started bleeding directly after having sex with dh. I now have this link in my head and whenever dh starts being tactile and loving this is what I think about and I move away make excuses etc. Dh is obviously feeling a bit rejected and upset about this as we have always had a really good sex life and throughout my first pregnancy with dc1 it continued as normal.
My dh is wonderfully supportive but he is a very tactile man, he won't push me or complain if I push away but I can feel he is feeling rejected. Last night he did ask me if everything was alright with us? He seemed really worried about it and though I keep explaining it is not him I think his confidence is being knocked. This really upset me, I don't him thinking this, but everytime I try and explain I just feel like I am being totally irrational and silly.
Has anyone else had this in pregnancy and does it last the whole pregnancy or can you move past it?
