sex during pregnancy....?

[KayMum]

strange subject i know but...

i've lost all interest in having sex since i got pregnant, me and my partner used to feel really close and found sex a really good way to show how much we care about each other but its not the be all and end all (feels like something much deeper and more meaningful than just sex =/ ), just now... i feel like i just cant do it :(

its starting to put a rift between us... he's wanting it, not pushing me into it coz i want to make him happy but its leaving me feeling a bit stuck. i dont wanna push myself to do something i dont want too and neither does he but we're kinda stuck as to what to do....

any advice would be really welcome!!!

Well I used to bang my partner regularly but I haven't had sex for the past month because I'm just not horny any more. (6 months pg) I still give him what I know he likes but I've made it clear that I just haven't got the drive I used to have so he knows not to waste time trying to give it back.

It's my first pregnancy so I don't know how long this will last but I hope I get back to my grabby, horny self soon afterwards because I miss it a lot :(

I would leave him to the porn because I'm sure he understands. My partner doesn't seem to have a problem with it, but that's because I still give him surprises because he knows I love it

bumping this because the OP didn't get any responses yet :)

i'm bumping this... really wanting some advice :(

Hi Kay - how many weeks are you? I'm 25 weeks and it's only in the last couple of weeks that I have had an interest again - up until now i've either been too knackered/sick/sore/uninterested to do anything. Now i'm feeling physically better and more like my old self, things are back on track again. I'm hoping they stay that way for a while before I get too big / the baby arrives. So what I'm saying is, hang on in there, things may improve and for us just knowing that it was probably a temporary phase made a difference. I don't have any practical advice unfortunately - the first few months were tough, but things will get better.

i'm 21 weeks and there's been no change for a while now... :(

Sex during pregnancy is still a question. Well, whether you should have or not depends on the situation. It?s often advised not to have sex during pregnancy but many go ahead of performing it. www.tipsfornewmom.com/sex-during-pregnancy/

Hi Kay, I'm 33 weeks now and have also totally lost interest in dtd, it's been like that for weeks now, first made difficult by pgp then tired, uncomfortable my interest just plummeted from prob about 22-23 weeks. It's hard for DH (unfortunate word there) but it's also perfectly normal and it WILL return - this is my second baby and exact same thing happened last time but after baby arrived everything got back to normal. I've booked dh in for May so he knows I haven't forgotten him :)

Ty you LilPud

i'm still seeing to his needs even tho i dont really want too lol but its nice to know that its going to end eventually, just find it hard to believe sometimes with how much i dont want it most of the time. thank you again

I had about 3 or 4 weeks when I was interested - at about 24 weeks - and now I'm 31 weeks I am just not interested at all. I feel too big and uncomfortable and too tired.
DH is a bit frustrated - especially as one of his workmates appears to have been spreading malicious rumours that pregnant women are really horny all the time
