So sex hasn't been that comfortable for awhile, keeps feeling like there's less and less space in there for the last 2 months. But yesterday was finally tried it (after a 3 week hiatus from busy schedules) and OMG it was so uncomfortable I could barely stand it. I tried to relax and breathe... and I know DH is pretty large (both length and width) but I couldn't even do it without being in so much pain! It felt like the "hole" thing had closed up and there was about 1 inch of room in there! Also - we tried many positions to see if that would help, to no avail.
Anyone else? Is this normal? How do you keep doing it throughout the rest of the pregnancy (I'd like to if it didn't hurt so much) What causes this?
Re: Sex... OWWWCH! Why?
Currently going through our second deployment. Can't wait for Zoe to meet her daddy!
I've the same issue. I was able to have semi comfortable sex with DH up until about45 weeks ago.. then we tried in our usual position and it was bearable. I am currently 25 weeks. We just tried again this week and it was a no go! There was nothing I could do to relax myself or get into. It just plain ole hurt. We even tried manual stimulation with his hands/fingers to try to get me to realx and I guess open up and that hurt too. i'm like a closed clam in there I guess. LOL I feel bad for him but am a lucky one because I have a hubby who actually doens't require alot of sex! I was always the sex fiend which stinks because now that I am pregnant I am always horny for him! LOL. It's a no win situation. So I think until the end of this pregnancy I will have to put my teenagish raging hormones on hold! ha ha I think it's all the moving, growing and shifting inside down there that causes this to happen. If you really sit and think about all the internal change your body has gone through it makes sense. Until then buy him some porn! He might love your openmindedness!
