Sex drive

[teatoast]

Anyone else have absolutely zero sex drive? Am 7 months and been this way for past couple of months probably. It's my second pregnancy and I wasn't like this at all in my last pregnancy. We didn't do it as often as we had done previously, but we did have sex throughout my pregnancy up until near the end and I definitely had a desire to do it.

And it's nothing to do with tired from having another child this time round. She's a relatively easy child, sleeps well and I'm only working part time, so I'm not particularly tired.

This pregnancy has been quite different in a few ways, so I'm wondering if some of these things might be a sign I'm having a boy this time round? Hoping my sex drive reappears at some point!

I feel exactly the same. However, I felt the same last time (ds6).....perhaps marginally more sex drive last time. My dh does understand though. Hopefully it will return next year. I'm due Dec.

Ps....i know I'm having another boy. So may be something in it...???

We don't know the sex of our child due in 4 weeks but I can confirm I've been the same- literally zilcho sex drive. Poor hubby, I spent the first 16 weeks with loads of nausea and sickness (only stopped being sick completely a week ago at 35 weeks!) and then when from when the nausea and majority of sickness went at 26 weeks onwards I just felt so physically uncomfortable and bloated 99.9% of the time I just can't face the idea of sex! So many people said I'd become "super horny" in the last trimester... lies!!!! I half wonder if it's a subconscious thing of realising that sex is what got me in the position of being sick and in discomfort all the time in the first place? 😂😂

Apologies for my terrible grammar there, was distracted whilst replying!

6 months here and no sex drive. Actively avoiding it if anything. I find feeling my baby move the ultimate passion killer. I just can't get over the fact that she's there. I know it's ridiculous, but it feels wrong

I had zero sex drive when pregnant with both my boys. DH just had to wait!

I've had HG all the way through this pregnancy and being near my husband makes me literally throw up. Safe to say that my sex drive has been non-existent!

I had no sex drive during my pregnancy at all. Sickness for the first 20 weeks, then once she started moving it really put me off.

I didn't have no sex drive, but during my pregnancy I could erm... Finish! (sorry if tmi). It was literally impossible from about month 4 onwards. Very frustrating.

Couldn't

Mine has gone too. I am very tired from looking after DD though.
I am having a boy this time.

Lol **mumma.....I'm not as far along as you so not at the huge/uncomfortable stage......yet. I don't feel sexy at all.....baby moves loads......just not loving the idea at all. I'm glad it's not just me! Might show this to dh as all our mutual friends were/are super horny during pregnancy....

The idea of sex makes me feel ill - 16 + 5.

I was the same last time. I think I had sex twice last pregnancy. I just can't face it.

I was like this when I was pregnant with DS completely had no sex drive and when I did want sex I was dry and tight sorry tmi but it was difficult.

Expecting a boy as well and had no sex drive at all really except at the odd 3 months or so at 3am... DH has always had a high sex drive so this total lack has been a learning curve for him he's going to have to wait a lot longer once I've had the baby as well (due in Nov) so it's all good practise for him.

Glad it's not just me! I did have a lower sex drive last time, but it didn't completely disappear like it has this time. Oh well, hopefully it will reappear at some point!

Zero sex drive with my last two pregnancies, does not appeal to me at all. I have went off everything, I let my husband touch my feet that's about it 🤣.

Zero sex drive too but still attending to my hubby without actually doing it! I can't expect the poor sod to go nine months without

Interesting reading?.

I have no issue with it, if anything mine has gone higher 🙈

mine was the strrange because I had a regular sex drive but I had extreme cramps when I had an orgasm/had sex. so it was just too painful so sadly my husband and i had to wait and I've had stitches now so I have to wait longer :-( fustrated is not the word xxxx
