1st Trimester

sex=OUCH!

Today was the first time my husband and I had sex since I found out I was pregnant 2 1/2 months ago.  I have had no desire to do it, for a number of different reasons, so when he asked for it today I said OK even though I didn't want to at all.  Man! It was so uncomfortable--even somewhat painful at times!  Anyone else find it an incredibly uncomfortable experience?

  • Try switching positions.  I found that switching to on-top was better for us.

  • I had a crapload of sex in the first tri.   It was around week 21 that my libido finally backed off some.   Did it for the first time in about a week last night, and Ouch!  That time it hurt - like he was hitting something inside.   So not comfortable.

    :(

  • we have sex about twice a week but the first time after we found out was weird. My dh asked if he could poke it. I find being on top is best because then I can control how far it goes in. I think i would go crazy w/o it and i know in a couple months i won't want to so i am gettin it in now

    M/C found 2/27/13-- D & C 3/6/13

  • I have had pain as well. I have a sensitive cervix (according to my OB) that bleeds at the slightest touch (it bled when my OB touched it with a q-tip) so we have to be super careful about how far it goes in, etc. Plus I have an eczema patch near the area down there so not so fun sometimes.

    We tried me on top and it was better, but only slightly.

  • Yea, this has happened to us and we found that going slow and switching positions as needed helped. Lube is also a good thing, as a pp mentioned... Good luck! And maybe this is a good time for foreplay!

    We didn't have sex after finding out until last night! I was also afraid of m/c...even though I've had zero issues so far (gratefully). It did hurt....I had to put an ice pack down there afterwards. Crying
