Sex.....

So DH and I do have sex, but I feel like lately I'm just not into it. I'm worried the baby will wake up and my body image sucks right now.
Anyone else feel this way? I feel bad for my DH I would rather go to sleep after A is asleep then have sex.
Just a vent I guess. I feel so lame but I just don't have any desire for it right now.

Re: Sex.....

  • You are so not alone. I would be perfectly content with zero sex. It took me about a good year after my first to get into it again. Your mind is just ALL about the baby right now!

  • Sex is not at the top of my list right now. We are in a total rut.
  • Poor DH knows that i'm not really into it right now (i have my days, but they're few and far between). i'm also having body immage issues, so DH is trying to be super supportive of my walking efforts knowing that as i feel better about myself, i'll feel better about sex. he doesn't want sympathy sex

  • My desire is there but I am so tired all the time, it can feel like a hassle.  And then there's AF, who decided she likes to visit for two weeks at a time, with only a week break...so...yea that's super fun too.

  • I'm going through the same thing but my DH is the one that doesn't want sex and I think its because he's having self esteem issues because all a sudden he's eating healthy and going to the gym. We've been having sex like once a week :-/.

  • I will make a confession that will make you feel 100 times better... We just had sex for the first time last week since I hit second trimester. No joke. I don't know but when I get pregnant and even after I have 0 Sex drive. The first time around was even longer for me. But this time the reason is more because I am so tired. The first time around my DH thought I was having an affair. I said "I don't want sex at all forget going out to look for it." So now pick your jaws up off the floor and feel better about yourselves! LOL! I know that I have a great husband and I appreciate him so much and his patience with me. When I'm pregnant, I'm just so uncomfortable I can't imagine having sex. He gets that. And then afterwards I'm exhausted, especially now BF. So my big confession! Point your fingers at me and laugh, lol!

  • You're not alone!  Sex can't be interrupting my sleep time haha! 

    Actually, the only time my hubby gets any these days is if he takes care of B early in the morning and let's me sleep in a bit on the weekends (we both still have to get up at least once per night with LO).  Then, when he puts LO down for his nap I'll reward him with a little action.

    Yes, I know it sounds bad, but he's happy and I'm happy, we both get what we wanted!
