Totally Turned off Sex with Husband During Pregnancy.

[SpottyFirstTimeMum]

Just going to preface this and say my husband is amazing, cares about me and is so supportive, and emotionally our relationship is great. However since I have been in my 2nd Trimester, even his touch/breath on me makes me recoil. We have a normal sex life before. I'm hoping this is just hormones as I feel awful for him, hes not pushy at all but this is the first dry spell we've had. Anyone else had this reaction?

Absolutely. Me and my DP have gone through the ringer this pregnancy. I think we've had sex once in my second trimester. I absolutely adore him, i love him to bits and still find him incredibly attractive, at the same time i may as well hold a baseball bat and say come near me i'll beat you with it🤣
Whether thats raging hormones, lack of sleep, pain😅 its all normal! Dont worry too much as long as he understands you dont want to be intimate thats all that matters. You can be intimate in other ways whether thats just sitting together quietly watching a film, a kiss on your head every so often ect. You'll be absolutely fine when baby is born!😁

Edited to add: we used to have sex atleast 3/4 times a week pre pregnancy.
And maybe done it a handful of times since!

Yeah, I was repulsed by sex during pregnancy but it was all fine again afterwards.

Totally normal don’t worry
