Sex....but whyyyyyyy!!??

baker1jm2

Let me start by saying I love my husband dearly and usually enjoy it; however I'm bloated, gassy, constipated, exhausted and irritable so back off haha!! He's still in trying mode when we were doing it every other day ttc. Please tell me I'm not the only one!

Right there with you! I love DH so very much, but sex while pregnant is super uncomfortable. I hated it my entire pregnancy last time and it has nothing to do with him! Thankfully he gets it!

Add me to the hate sex list right now. With our first DH was so nervous about hurting the baby (so I took that excuse and ran with it) now he knows better. I feel guilty for continuously turning him down lately.

I just feel yucky so I'm in that same mode. Nauseous and gassy don't make ya feel frisky

I feel for you in regards to the gassy, bloated discomfort! It's a conflicted feeling for me, because going through Ivf treatment, and having a surgery in the middle of it, I haven't had sex in months. I'm waiting to get the ok from my clinic. I "want" to have sex badly  but between being cramps, and the nasty progesterone suppositories, it is a turn off.

Same here. My DH is always frisky.. Everday or other day would be the norm for us. I just truly don't feel sexy right now and not really in the mood. I just want to sleep. Ugh.

I'm nervous, because with my first I bled bright red the first time we did. It lasted for 3 days, baby was checked, blood was checked, ultrasound, the whole 9 yards....everything was fine, but I'm now on guard because of that.

Totally with you! I'm so not in the mood! And my OB recommended we don't do it anyway while I'm on progesterone.

Same here.  I'm exhausted, bloated, constipated and not at all in the mood.  My husband loves to touch my stomach, but I don't want him anywhere near that area.  I feel bad about it, but it is what it is.

Nope nope nope. Lucky for me,  DH has a fractured knee cap right now and is in a brace from groin to ankle so it's kind of out of the question anyway. I am not complaining one little bit. In fact,  we haven't DTD since we conceived some 5 weeks or so ago. Should we have a competition on who goes the longest without? Hahaha

Other than being bloated, gassy, and nauseated I've also been just nervous. I know if I start cramping or spotting I would absolutely panic!

We've had sex once since finding out we were pregnant. Actually probably since GETTING pregnant. Poor DH. But he's been surprisingly very okay with it. He knows how horrible I'm feeling. Plus when I'm going to bed at 8pm he doesn't have too much of a choice haha

We've been having sex in the morning or during the day. That way I can fall into bed without worrying about it.

Haha me and my sister just had this conversation and we laughed because our SO's hung out in my garage last night and my sisters SO came over to the garage again tonight and we're both pregnant and we said good they can entertain each other and we don't have to say no another night! I think we've had sex maybe 2-3 times since conceiving 6 weeks ago.
