Sex drive gone AWOL!

[EmmKay]

I am 31 weeks pregnant and last wanted sex, ooh, about 31 weeks ago! Obviously I have had sex in that time, but purely for the sake of my DH - am just not into it at all... He isn't putting any pressure on me at all, but I just feel so guilty. I honestly would rather watch paint dry than get intimate - and it's been this way for months. I could blame it on tiredness but I don't even think it is that - I literally just couldn't be less interested and the idea of it just makes me shudder. I tried to make DH feel better by saying it's not him as it's not as if I want to have sex with anyone else either!! Has anyone else felt this way during pregnancy? I can't imagine sex drive coming back with a 'bang' when I've got a newborn (and a toddler!) in 2 months time either! Help!

Yep, me too! It happened last time too, I do put a lot of it down to tiredness though and terrible sickness which last time lasted the whole nine months!
I just think at the mo if there is time to sleep I'd rather be doing that. Like you, I'll have a toddler and newborn to contend with soon!
I think it might be hormonal, some women go totally the other way. Luckily hubby is very supportive and fine about it, we're very secure in our relationship and Im sure it will all get back to normal eventually, am sure yours will too, don't feel guilty its just another joy of pregnancy I think!
Good luck!

Yeah - just make sure you keep talking to your DH/DP about it. It's perfectly normal to go off sex totally - heaps of couples don't have sex for the whole 9 months!
For me, it's been super sporadic and even when we do it's not mega comfortable so we just take it easy and have massages etc. I think if you keep being tactile with each other it leaves the other not-pregnant one feeling like they are cuddled and loved.
Good luck and happy easter!
