Anyone have a pregnancy sex life??

[MissMoodyMoo]

If it's not enough that I'm a whale and constantly sore...but we literally haven't had a sex life since I was around 24w!!
I try to initiate things but he gets weirded out 😂😂 I totally respect this but ughhh 😭😭 he actually said he won't even do oral incase he licks the babies head 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ not so smart 30yr old man 😂😂

I genuinely feel for you ladies. I'm 19+5 and we have sex probably twice a week which is generally what it was before pregnancy. I really need it to be honest as I feel insecure with how my body is changing, it helps to feel that DP still desires me. I'd feel so rejected if he didn't touch me.

I tried a few times.... I would get into the zone, move into a position then forget I have PGP - at one point I ended up in so much agony I was almost crying and I couldn't move... what a mood killer!!!!! My partner has been so lovely at doing other stuff but I don't think he fancies sex with me anymore - he also believes the baby is within touching distance! ha.... love how men think female anatomy works!

I really enjoyed sex during pregnancy because I was fat with a purpose and felt really beautiful. Towards the end it got a little difficult but a little manoeuvring and it all worked out fine. My sex drive was very high during my pregnancy, hormones whirling around etc.

22 weeks tomorrow & we had been about once a week from 12 weeks but after the tiniest bit of spotting yesterday we’ve decided against it again 😂

I didn’t. The smell of DH made me feel sick!

We didn't have much sex at all when I was pregnant- nothing at all past 20 weeks. Most of this was due to me hating the feeling of it. I didn't like being pregnant, it wasn't just feeling unattractive, it was just how cumbersome it was.
Sex life picked up massively after DTs were born, though.

I have had a super high sex drive since week 5 (now week 14) but my boyfriend will barely touch me. It’s actually really upsetting :,(

I’m finding a have a super high sex drive but it’s early days (8 weeks) so may change. It’s all a little sensitive so have to be careful but that’s it so far. Strangely he smells really nice to me at the moment too. 😂

DH is keen but I've had no sex drive basically since conception and despite reading that you're more 'lubricated' in pregnancy I've found the opposite when we have occasionally found the sexy feelings. It's a real pain as I was looking forward to the fabled second trimester sex drive but almost 22 weeks now and nothing. Sigh.

Haven't had sex much after the first trimester (now 26 weeks).

In pain a lot with my ribs but even without that my DH is starting to get freaked out by the baby kicking so wouldn't say it'll happen much between now and the end!

1st pregnancy - yup, normal ish sex life
2nd pregnancy - but less rumpy, still did it though
this pregnancy - one attempt at 17w, was hella uncomfortable, nothing before or since.

Nope and I’m only 12 weeks! No interest, too nauseous and tired, and on a scale of 1 to 10 my libido is approximately -12!! DP has been so lovely though and doesn’t mind. We’re still very affectionate so don’t feel any less close to him, but I’m hoping my libido will return in the second trimester.

Those of you with worried DHs need to reassure them that the baby’s head is on the other side of a closed cervix and inside a tough sac of membranes. There’s no way they will get anywhere near it.
Pregnancy often causes increased libido due to the hormone levels, and orgasm is more powerful due to the enlarged uterus and increased pelvic blood circulation, so for many women it can be the best sex of their lives. There is also no inhibitory fear of getting pregnant since you are already!
As you will be struggling with exhaustion, sleepless nights and/or breastfeeding after the birth, I’d recommend getting all the sex you can during pregnancy!

When pregnant with my son I wanted sex a lot and right up until the end! I found orgasms better lol. Then hubby and I continued to have a good sex life a few weeks after our son was born. Now I am 30 weeks pregnant with 2nd baby and sex is almost non existent! Have zero drive and with our son only being 10 months he is tiring us out!

The last time we properly had sex.. this baby was conceived, since then we have tried but he just find it weird that we have sex and his ding dong gets so close to the baby. I've given up trying to make him understand it doesnt.

Up until a few weeks ago we were once a fortnight or so, but now I'm 37 weeks I'm too knackered and uncomfortable to even think about it!

38 + 4 and still having an active sex life

I know someone who claims to have sex while she was in labour because she knew it was the last chance she would get for a while.

I found I feel more 'in the mood' now pregnant than I did before, but DP doesn't seem that into it. I don't know if it's the little bump he's scared to squish but there's not much interest lately. Keep hoping each night will be the night haha 😂

13 weeks here, we’ve had sex once since we found out I was pregnant. And frankly I didn’t enjoy it, I felt tired and sick.

When I was pregnant with DD1, I completely lost my libido so had sex twice in the entire pregnancy and that was at the end to try to encourage labour. The thought of it completely freaked me out but DH wasn't bothered by it

I'm pregnant again and am finding that I want sex this time but my DH is too tired as he works full time and is a really hands on dad to our daughter!

We just can't win lol

We've done it once! I have felt awful this pregnancy - almost all the way through - and just 100% not in the mood. DH very understanding. I don't think he particularly wants to have sex with me either, as I'm so grumpy.
The one time we did have sex I was SO sore afterwards, for a couple of days too... I haven't fancied doing it again.

However I am due imminently and have told DH I'll be calling on his services soon, to help ripen my cervix!
