Everyone else keeps talking about how horny pregnancy makes you. I'm 22 weeks and really NOT. Starting to feel very sorry for dh. How does everyone else feel?

This is a tricky area for us. DH feels awkward about my huge bump, whereas I can't get enough Blush There's a bit of a drought here, and I think DH cringes when I bring it up. Once the baby is here, it will be the very last thing on my mind!

Even my other half who has a low sex drive has started making hints that his balls hurt :p I'm just completely uninterested...

Not one little bit. Feel really sorry for OH but he's so respectful. Which of course makes me feel worse lol!

I couldn't face it the first four months as I was sick as a dog. Then randomly for most of February couldn't get enough. It's a bit sore now I've edged my way into the last trimester and my sickness has returned so we've stopped again. I'm making the most of those moods as I am not sure there will be many when the baby arrives!

Dh has been lovely throughout.

I wish! We have only done it about 5 times since I got pfp.
We are both finding the whole thing really weird, like the cat is in the room with us when we want to do it but we cant' chuck the cat out of the room, this time it's a small squiggly baby in my tummy. Feels a bit inappropriate tbh. I know it's a totally natural thing and I feel so envious of all those with high sex drives but it just feels weird. Very frustrating for us both, and I am only half way through the pregnancy - argh! Blush

Had sex right up to labour last time! Used to drive me mad when people would tell me knowingly to have a shag when I was overdue. I was like, if that worked, this baby would have been out months and months ago!

No. Too sick. Maybe once or twice a week at the moment. We were like bunnies before pregnancy (maybe why it only took a month!)

Bring on the second trimester, sometimes I cry and tell him we haven't had sex in YEARS (actually 5 days). Poor man, dealing with hormonal craziness.

It really hurt up to about 14 weeks so didn't do anything. then I turned in to a total sex pest. The only reason it was contained to about 3 times a week was because he works such long hours. I'm 35+4 now and still want sex but don't want any foreplay, if he tries he incurs the pregnant woman wrath! Bless him

TMI warning-

'Can I just give you a handjob instead'- Blush I said this a lot...

Now I'm desperate for baby to come, and believing old wives tales am demanding sex, but apparently angry heavily pregnant ladies shouting 'will you just come' isn't really a turn on

Alita I was the same up until about 20 weeks, I thought the baby was just sat there not far 'up' haha then fiancé decided to google it and drum it into it wouldn't harm my baby.

To be honest I'm a little worried it could affect the baby- even though I know that if things are secure in there then it won't make any difference. I think it's the amount of times sex has triggered a due period to come on maybe.

We'll have to try at some point though to prove to myself it won't hurt bubba.

Cupcake11- there were many nights where I couldn't get to sleep with the fury of him not wanting to go again 10 seconds later Grin

Silly lass - I was the same!!

It did come and go but I was extremely horny and pounced on him at every chance.
We also DTD maybe only 3 weeks after my c section Blush
And within the first two weeks did some other things.

I'm actually a little embarrassed to even be saying this anonymously. Horny devils. Blush

I'm also the same kitkat I just 'make the effort once a week' so my fiancé doesn't feel unwanted haha

I had a normal delivery and was really lucky with just some grazes I think it's the fact when pregnant I knew what was inside me I was just uncomfortable. It's still hurts a tiny bit I think it's all in my head really but to be honest it was 'comfortable' about 3 weeks after birth. It's probably just me being funny but I'm still quite paranoid.

Sex drive this time round has vanished (dc3)-same with dc2.

With dc1 we were unstoppable though! Think we were marvelling at how fertile we were, getting up the spout and everything ;) And I could not wait to do it afterwards- think all the pushing had brought my important bits closer to the surface and the seam on my jeans was a good friend for the 5 weeks it took before I felt healed enough to engage in some gentle (but longed for) sex Blush

I'm 35 weeks now and from we got BFP we have had sex 3 times.

I've been in too much pain. I couldn't even try it now as I know it would be awful. I do feel for Dp but there's nothing I can so.

I'm 34 weeks and recently have felt a bit more randy Grin however, the pain of moving in bed soon puts paid to any thoughts of that :(
