Lost Libido ???

melissajuelich

I am currently sitting at 22 weeks and I have lost my libido! I have read it is supposed to increase but I have no interest in sex whatsoever. Anyone else feeling the same ?

I am in the same boat and have been this whole pregnancy. Although truth be told, I have felt this way even before, but being uncomfortable/sick most of this pregnancy has made it worse. I had asked my OB about it awhile back prior to being pregnant because I feel too young to feel this way, and it is not that I am not attracted to my DH, I am. She said it was normal at this point in life because we have so many other stresses in our life (at the time I was working a LOT and had a toddler). I hope some day it comes back for me!

This was me up through around 17 or 18w.  I honestly just pushed through it because it was getting to DH so badly.  Now that I have a little more energy (most days), I have noticed that I seem more interested.

I was like this when I was pregnant with DS. We probably only had sex 3 times the entire 9 months. This pregnancy? Totally different.

Every woman and pregnancy is different.

My libido came back but unfortunately every position has now become uncomfortable and I'm so dry (sorry if tmi). It seriously feels like sandpaper though.

I have had little to no interest in sex this entire pregnancy. I will still initiate sometimes because I know my husband misses it.
It is a little uncomfortable and awkward now that I'm getting bigger. (TMI warning) Lol, and last night, I was getting horrible leg cramps throughout it! So sexy.

Glad I'm not the only one lol. Mines been pretty much gone as well, and it doesn't help that when I do attempt it, it's not very comfortable. There's one position we've done that made me feel like I had to pee the entire time

It cut off the rest of my post... I also said, most of the time though I just don't feel like trying

I was this way before I got pregnant and still am. We've bad sex once since I got pregnant, I'm 23 weeks. It was just for his benefit then and was over about as soon as it started.

I second this. First pregnancy I was not interested in sex, this time around I feel like I'm back in my game! Lol

I haven't been interested in sex either , which I think is strange because with my first I wanted to all the time. Occasionally I will think "ok I'm kind of in the mood " then something little he does will totally turn me off Hopefully my hubby doesn't mind the lack of sex , he is not one to speak his mind if it is bothering him.

I am 23 weeks and we have had sex twice. DH and I have great communication and discussed it. We do many intimate things that are not sexual. You are not the only one. It will come back. Just a short term hiccup.
