My husband and I have been together 8 years. We met in our early 20s and at that time had plenty of sex, it has tailed off over the years which is understandable (and was coming from both sides) but before I was pregnant we were having sex 2 or 3 times a week. We had a difficult time getting pregnant and I said I wasn’t comfortable having sex in the early stages which he was fine with. Then the first trimester awfulness kicked in and I felt horrendous until around 17 weeks. He didn’t pressure me at all during this time and I was grateful. Once I started to feel better I made some advances and he was always happy to have sex if I initiated it but wouldn’t initiate himself. Since the bump became bigger he started saying he didn’t feel like it, he was tired etc when I would initiate. I don’t have a problem with that obviously but it was every single time so I raised it with him. He insists that everything’s fine and he still fancies me but he just feels weird with the baby being in there. There’s plenty of affectionate non sexual contact still and everything else is fine. With body changes and so on I obviously don’t feel that sexy and I have explained to him several times that it’s important to me that we maintain our sex life and I think if I felt that he still fancied me it would help with how I feel. I feel like I know he is entitled to his opinion and obviously I don’t want to pressure him. However I also feel really sad that we’ve not having sex at all now for a couple of months and I’m a bit worried that it will never go back to how it was (assume there won’t be much happening in that department for a few months after birth!). Should I just ride it out and see what happens post partum? Should I talk to him again? I should add as well that I’ve suggested other sexual activities that we used to enjoy but he says no (previously unheard of!) so I’m worried there’s more to it than just the baby and he maybe doesn’t see me like that any more.
