Sex drive-increase...or has it disappeared?

Probably been mentioned a thousand times before on here, but I am just curious.
Does sex not even enter your head? or are you a sex driven maniac?
It seems that most ladies I know, myself included, go to one extreme or the other. Though most, I have to say, have gone down the "sex ban" route!!

I was horny as hell, it completely shrivelled up and died for about 2 years after DD was born though

flamesparrow · 18/04/2005 15:04

Mine went poof when I was pg... was throwing up 24/7 though so that could explain it!

Dophus · 18/04/2005 15:06

Iwas also horny as hell - I miss it terribly now DS is 12 weeks, I have no interest whatsoever.

Will it really take two years to return...?

NomDePlume · 18/04/2005 15:07

Dophus, it did for me.

QueenEagle · 18/04/2005 15:07

Ahem - sex drive through the roof, can't explain it pregnant or not...We even get told off by my dd for canoodling too much...

flamesparrow · 18/04/2005 15:08

Mine's only just returning... DD 2 next month

Dophus · 18/04/2005 15:15

Oh no - another reason to be pregnant again!

I also heard that you are more likely to feel horny is the baby is a boy. It was in ym case - any truth in this?

sweetheart · 18/04/2005 15:21

I'm 7 weeks in and mine has dissapeared - along with my love of food

ruthiemum · 18/04/2005 15:23

When I was pregnant with DS I had no sex drive whatsoever. Pregnant again with 2nd and it has gone through the roof - much to the delight of DH!!

im now 29 weeks and me n dh have not done it for 4 months now- i feel so bad but i just dont want THAT inside of me near baby! i know it cant actually hurt it- it just feels wrong though!!

NomDePlume · 19/04/2005 14:49

Dophus my baby was a DD and I was frantically horny 24/7

18mumtobe · 19/04/2005 15:42

i lost all interest in sex, but mostly coz had m/s for first five months and still don't feel great most of the time now. do get horny every now and again. but in the early months i didn't even want him to touch me really let make love. hope feel better once baby is born (only 5 wks to go now) but then again i don't surpose we'll ever get the chance to then.

Missblossom · 19/04/2005 20:33

my DH accused me of using him as a sex object today and says that Im wearing him out. Says I only want it to get labour started. Cheeky bugger should be grateful that he is getting anything at all, with 3 1/2 weeks to go.

oh I wish missblossom!
How do we tell men that it isn't actually a problem with them if we don't fancy sex?
They just think that we don't fancy them anymore, or that we've found someone else! If only they knew what deep creatures us women actually are!
