Hello!

I have a huge loss of libido, not going down well with dh!

Is it normal?

I'm 7 weeks tomorrow.

Definitely, you're hormones are going crazy at that stage. Also your DH better lump it as first trimester can be rough!

Completely normal! It's hard work growing a new baby :) fwiw my libido went through the roof at about 16 weeks lol!!! Now I'm 35 weeks it has dipped again ;) there are lots of other things u and ur oh could do!

I was the same! Think my poor DH was going out of his mind by the time it recovered during the third tri!

I went off it for months. It's good preparation for not having sex for months after the birth either!

Thanks guys, thats really helpful!

Based on last night, I dont think the news of a low libido for another 3 months will go down too well!

Tell him, he should try growing another human being whilst trying to be superwoman as well!!

My DH was not pleased but understood and I then had sexy dream, at his parents house of all places and we had one night of passion then it was gone again!!

10wks+5!!

Yes it's normal. Your DH needs to learn a little sensitivity!

Yep, I lost mine almost instantly after getting my bfp. I'm 24 weeks now and its showing no signs of coming back anytime soon!!

Dp understands but i do feel for him, poor sucker.

Yep, mine has completely gone. I'm 9+1 and felt sooooo ill over the past month that sex is the last thing on my mind. Hubby is extra gutted as my boobs are now ginormous too lol!
