No sex drive - feeling guilty

Basically title says it all. I’m feeling like the root of all our relationship problems because I just don’t want to have sex.

Me and dp have been together for three years, and have been living together for a year. We had issues with sex drive before that because his is stupidly high and mine stupidly low but when you’re not cohabiting, it isn’t so much of an issue as we weren’t together every night so I could get away with not doing it.

He’s been really good about it but now I can see his patience is wearing thin. To make matters worse, I’m 3 months pregnant, and despite not having horrendous symptoms, my already low libido has just fallen off a cliff. I could get on with it before and once we got going, I usually enjoyed it, but now I just don’t want him to touch me in that way. We’ve only had sex about 4 times since we found out I was pregnant.

I want more than anything to be able to enjoy sex, especially since he’s told me that he just doesn’t feel loved anymore (despite the fact I’m all up for kissing/cuddling/romantic gestures). What can I do?
