1st Trimester

Are you and s/o still having sex?

I am just not feeling it lately. I am not in the mood to be touched, and have horrible ALL DAY sickness. I feel so sorry for DH but being high risk we really shouldn't be doing anything any way. Pray I'll feel different later, and at least be able to help him out later on.

Re: Are you and s/o still having sex?

  • We do, but only because I feel bad for DH.  How awful is that?  I am so tired and in bed long before him and I am usually so passed out that I don't even stir when he comes to bed.  Also, my boobs are sore and I feel so gross and bloated that it is totally not appealing to me.  But I feel bad that I'm never in the mood so I usually force it a couple times a week.  I hope I get my sex drive back soon...

  • After I had a little bit of spotting after sex earlier this week, my doctor's office recommended we hold off until I come in for my first appointment in about 2 weeks, and we can address it then.  It's been a little hard so far, just because I have been in the mood (the sex dreams have already begun since we've had to abstain!) but since it took us almost a year and clomid to get this pregnancy, we're both more than willing to hold off until we know things are okay :)

  • We have and it's been great, but he hasn't visited "downstairs" since we found out (if you know what I'm saying) I don't know if he's weirded out about it, or if he's scared because I told him I'd read that he's not supposed to blow air in there. Anyone else?

  • So glad I am not the only one!! Praying we all get a little more drive soon.

  • I think I will be afraid to orgasm, so I will just give him oral to be safe.  And he loves that the most anyway.

  • Unfortunately we are not having as much intercourse as when were trying. Primarily because I feel like poo and am usually asleep before he gets to bed. I am trying to compensate with other favors as often as I feel up to it, but that is sadly a rare event too these last couple weeks. H hasn't complained. He is really excited about this baby and so we like to cuddle a lot & talk. So right now I don't think its a huge deal for either of us.

  • Yes.  And why are you high risk?  Did your doctor tell you not to have sex?
  • Definitely, although not as much as before bfp.

  • No.  My poor DH got turned down this morning.  I feel so nauseaus and bloated and have zero sex drive right now.  I hope this passes soon or I'm going to have to just suck it up and do the deed whether I feel like or not.

  • YES! and maybe I am in the minority here, but I actually want sex more now then before my BFP!  I also think it feels better.

  • Yup. We still have sex all the time. Mostly to help get rid of my headaches since I'm paranoid about taking ANYTHING other than my prenatals and sometimes because I have very... vivid... dreams at night and just can't shake it lol

  • we're abstaining until after we hear the heart beat next week and talk to the doctor.  we've done it once since we found out and i had spotting afterward (which i know is normal, but we just wanna be cautious.)

    This is us exactly, but I'm the one who requested him not to perform oral.  First because I don't trust he's not going to be stupid and second because if he's not getting any, then I figure I can go without too.

    But we're having sex more now probably than before I was pregnant.  The orgasms are incredible.

  • I am so nauseous that the thought of sex just turns me right off. I feel bad for DH but he's been patient. I know that once I hit the 2nd trimester it will get back to normal, but it's hard to get in the mood when you feel like vomiting 24 hours a day.

  • No.  :(  I am on pelvic rest until minimum of Tuesday.  Could be longer.  My morning sickness was mild this time and let up about a week ago.  I have been so freaking interested that it's all I dream about.  However like I said, I am on pelvic rest.  So no nookie for me.  Poor DH hasn't gotten any in about four weeks.  He was very gentelmanly about it.  I offered to take care of business for him but he said if I couldn't get any why should he?

    This...lol. As soon as we found out, we knew we would wait until after the baby was born and I was all healed. Don't want to risk anything - just in case.

  • Yes we are and I agree with @Kendrav4 I feel like my sex drive has gone up since becoming pregnant.  DH thinks I'm crazy since it's supposed to be the opposite effect, but he isn't complaining.

  • I haven't really been feeling like doing it lately, but have sucked it up and done the deed a few times. The only problem is that my husband goes so fast, that I don't even get a chance to orgasm. But it keeps him happy, and its not that big of a deal I guess..

  • We are. More than ever actually. Crazy hormones!
