To think that having sex when pregnant is disgusting.

[uhaveuropinionandihavemine]

The mere suggestion of it makes me go cold.

But it is possible to get pregnant when already pregnant

But I do think YABU. Esp when I remember being pregnant with DS2 & 3, not at the same time mind, when DH barely dared to walk in the door before I jumped him [hgrin]

Showy, I SELL little baby Cheeses! I'm very popular at christmas!

What ShowOfBloodyStumps said (NICE guidelines on IoL say sex isn't to be recommended as a way of getting labour going as it DOESN'T WORK)

for the OP.

It's not disgusting but I didn't like having sex when I was pregnant

Well not once I felt the baby moving anyway. Not quite the threesome I daydream of...

I saw some brilliant graffiti once.

'Sex is Great - I Know Because I've Done It'

honey dragon shagging will not get your dishes washed

My first pregnancy was too traumatic to even contemplate sex. My 2nd pregnancy my OH thought all his xmases had come at once all the way through.

The thing is OP we're talkig 9months of no alcohol, no nice cheese, no sushi and barely any coffee. Therefor I will be flipped if I'm going to go without cock for 9 months as well.

In late pregnancy sex was not my favourite pass time to be honest (that was eating) but I wouldn't call it disgusting!

Op have you ever
(a) been pregnant
(b) had sex?

Of course sex gets the dishes done when your pregnant. Your OH does them in a desperate attempt to flee from hormonal sex crazed round people giving them the eye.

Haven't read whole thread but why on earth would it be disgusting? Of course if you personally don't want to then don't but why on earth should a couple suddenly want to stop having sex, when they both want to, just because of pregnancy?

it doesn't scare the baby (unless he's big and knocks on the door )

Not disgusting. My dp wouldn't do it tho op are you mr fairy?????

I was horny as fuck tho so did plenty of other stuff [hwink]

Fairyjen - send yourself to the naughty pregnancy step. I will join you. ?

could we have a burger and chips or coke emoticon for half term please?

But lets be serious for a minute, i would imagine that SOME folk would be uncomfortable having sex whilst pregnent. A good friend of mine finds pregnant tummies a turn off (he is very squeemish) although to be fair they are on baby number two now so clearly it didn't put him off for life!! Might be different with your own. Some people worry about hurting the baby haivng sex when pregnant.

On the other hand, my DP found me extra sexy when i was pregnant, in fact the first thing he wanted to do when i announced my surprise pregnancy was um, well, celebrate.

What a strange post. Not necessarily for its subject matter but for the fact there's no explanation as to why it's apparently disgusting .......

Mmmm... fecundity!

I had hyperemesis in my pg and the one and only time I felt well enough to even try to get busy with poor old DH, I threw up on him. He stopped asking after that.

Bless him. He's a patient man :)

I think some blokes get freaked out by the idea of sex during pregnancy because they think they are rather more well endowed than they really are.

Are you one of those, OP?

Or they are scared they'll hear the baby giggling at it?

I was extra horny when pregnant, orgasms stronger and qucker etc, seems others felt the same - anyone know the reason for this? Anyone, anyone...

Actually, I think an increase in the female's libido coupled with continued/increased sexual attraction from the male would be evolutionarily beneficial.

Increased bonding between a couple, post-conception, pre-birth, can only be beneficial, surely?

Yawn. More lazy journalism?

Zzz

well i think anybody having sex at any time needs slapping

but only because im not getting any and thats not good
