...for the rest of this pregnancy. I thought it over and have given it some time, but generally I just don't want to anymore. Perhaps I'll wrap a box of lube and socks and give it to SO when he gets back home tomorrow to commemorate this occasion?
Towards the end of the pregnancy when I start getting internals, my OB will look down there, then in horror, turn to the nurse and say, "She's got cobwebs!" (Remember Drop Dead Fred?)
Anybody else over sex?
Re: I think I'm done having sex...
I"'m not over sex but I just had to laugh at the movie reference. I loved that movie!! My sister married a guy named Fred and everytime he came over we would shout "Drop Dead Fred!!" at him.
hahaha Love your comment
But yes I'm so with you. Poor DH hasn't gotten any in weeks and I really have no desire to do anything anymore either. Maybe I'll copy you and give him a little gift bag too of lube, socks, and maybe even a Playboy.
I'm totally over it! I was too worried about the pregnancy to really enjoy it at any point during this whole experience though. But, my DH just asked me today if he could get a little tonight (he tried getting some last night but we got home from a baseball game late and he had already had a bunch of beers so I was NOT feeling it- literally
So, since I've gotten to take a nap today, and he's offered to take me maternity shopping I really have no excuse to not want to give it up, but laying in bed, reading a book with some girlie candles burning sounds sooooo much more fun! I'm an awful wife!
Speaking of lube, you reminded me I need to pick some more up. Not to give TMI, but I've found that I need it more lately
You would do "other stimulation"? Hats off to you girl! I'm all about him adding a few minutes onto his shower routine and keeping his hands off me.
LovesMM- It's such a great movie. I used to tell my friends "She's got cobwebs!" about my mom when I was young and she was being crabby.
Ugh, my poor husband. I should be happy he still wants to have sex with me but I'm just not really interested.
P.S. LOVE Drop Dead Fred!!! No one else I know has ever seen it so I love that you quoted it!!

Holy crap, I wish we had a naughty store here because I would pack it into the "3rd trimester survival box"
LOL yeah, its great I'm sure you could find something similar online!
I'm right there with ya! But DH isn't having it right now and well, it's just not as much fun to only "stimulate" him. LOL
No! I am with you. I was telling my gf the other day that I would hate to be pregnant and single because amoung other reasons there would be no one to have sex with.
If I had my druthers, I'd kidnap him for an entire day (or week) of sexy time.
It's getting awkward cause of the belly but we're managing just fine.

haha you made me laugh at your comment about not feeling it.. literally!!!
well i hope it gets better for you ladies because my baby is 11 weeks now and i still don't feel like having sex. We have, however, 3 times since my 6 week check up... it was ok but it was so hard the first time - mentally.
anyway, good luck!!
This isn't meant to be rude...but how about if you don't want to have sex, skip the "lube and socks" and stimulate him yourself?
I'm seeing a lot of selfish comments on here and it's like no one ever thought of being selfless. Pregnancy isn't an excuse.
If you're done having sex now, and probably won't be able to have sex for a good, long while AFTER pregnancy, how can two people continue in love and satisfaction in each other without being giving in whatever way they can?
Call me old-fashioned, but sex isn't merely a physical act (or it shouldn't be).
I keep waking my DH up in the middle of the night I go to pee and am awake and in the mood, He's so happy
DH and I decided we we're done about 2 weeks ago after a very uncomfortable and awkward romp. I would like to give it 1 more try for our anniversery in 3 weeks, but DH is afraid of hurting the baby. We may just have to settle for making-out like teenagers.
AMEN sister! I find it hard sometimes to get in the mood for sex because I'm so uncomfortable, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna leave DH hanging! If I'm too sore or tired for sex, I help him out in other ways. Often times, though, if I just try to get into the mood for him, I end up having a wonderful time and glad we did it! DH is wonderful about never pushing for sex (or even asking for that matter!) since he doesn't want to make me feel bad, so I love to do whatever I can, whenever I can for him. He's been so good to dote on me, that he deserves some sexy attention! And I'm more than happy to give it to him! Goodness knows after the baby arrives it will be weeks before we can have sex again. Why deprive him (or myself) now? I refuse to be selfish about it just because I'm pregnant. My marriage comes first! Besides, DH is one of those guys that gets turned on by pregnancy! Lucky me!
