I would say my sex drive is about a 0 right now. I have been feeling so bad for DH since we have really only had sex like a hand full of times since my BFP... so last night we had sex. I couldn't wait for it to be over. Even kissing was making me nauseous. Hope this buys me a couple of weeks. LOL
How sad is that though. Ugh.
Re: Had pity sex last night.
you're a better wife then me! ha.
We haven't had sex ONCE since my BFP. I feel awful but I'm so sick all the time.. I may cave and give in this weekend so he doesn't get too sad about it, lol.
This is me too! We did it last Saturday and it was AWFUL! I just couldn't get into it and I was so dry. I don't think either of us enjoyed it. Shame too, cuz when we were TTC, things were just getting great in that department and now I have NO interest at all! Poor DH.
Ugh, we haven't had sex either. I hope that seeing the hb yesterday and him getting excited may buy me some time. My stomach is killing me today.
Haha thats exactly it! DF complains so much but Im like have any girl constipated, nauseas, crampy and with a headache and ask her if she feels sexy, Im pretty sure the answer is NO. lol
All that being said we still do the deed every couple of days. I can tell you that I dont enjoy it at all but if it makes him happy....... *sigh*
I would rather watch Real Housewives and lay on the couch with my cats than have sex. But I "take one for the team" once a week so my husband will stop acting like a sad puppy. I feel bad about it (ok, I really don't). I am so glad I'm not the only one.
I"m 9 weeks 5 days (can't get the ticker to work).

Our sex life was astounding before we got pregnant. But ever since I saw that BFP I have NOT been in the mood. We recently were told that we could not have sex for three weeks. Luckily he cares enough for our baby to not pester me for these three weeks...but I'm going to hate to see what happens when this ban lifts.

I have not been in the mood either. I dont feel sick, but I just am so worried its going to make me even more crampy...and ill just have one more thing to stress about. I just dont want to until our apt.
but we did yesterday, and omg it was soooo good. I think by depriving myself of it just made it that much better.
Sex (or I should say an orgasm) is usually a good way of getting rid of cramps.
Later in the pregnancy I got really 'interested' again last time. It was some of the best times ever. He felt like a superhero and I felt like the cat with canary feathers all around her!
You girls are cracking me up. I'm about to pop so I definitely don't want sex right now. But, I had the opposite problem during most of my pregnancy. My DH isn't interested in sex. I guess the site of my belly is gross or something.
Love reading your stories though.

I am so thankful you posted about this! I watched that cheesy J-Lo movie "The Back-up Plan" a few weeks ago. I couldn't get over how "horny" she was at the beginning of her pregnancy blaming it on hormones and saying that a lot of women get like that.
I am totally the opposite! I normally have a very healthy sex drive and get very into. Since becoming preggo, It's been the exact opposite. I could care less if we do it. We've only been doing it about once a week. I feel bad, but that's the most I can give right now. I don't even care if I am "taken care of" or not, which is totally unlike me.
Glad to hear I'm not alone. Good luck ladies! I hear it gets better later in the pregnancy.
I feel better that I'm not the only one. I do it about once a week, for his sake. I feel yucky and had a subchronic bleed with a previous pregnancy so Dr. says once I've had one, my risks are higher for having other one so I am cautious about that too. I do also realize that having sex would not cause a bleed, but still, you ladies know how it is.
Don't know about the rest of you ladies but I have been having really good sex dreams and I told hubby that was enough for me right now. He wasn't too happy to hear that.
You are def. better than me...we didn't do it once while I was pregnant...in fact, it was pity sex that got me pregnant..now, I'n not doin' it till I'm on BC. Good luck
To Miricard35:
My whole first trimester, I would spot every time we had sex. My doctor said that was normal due to increased blood flow in that area. As long as it isn't heavy, I was told not to worry about it by 4 different doctors (it's a group practice). You might want another opinion. I hope this is helpful to you. I couldn't imagine waiting 9 months + weeks of healing time to have sex again.
