QOTD: How is your sex life these days? (please don't feel like you need to post detailsWink)

Me:  You know, I was always told that pregnant women get more of a sex drive but I have found with both of my pregnancies that I am NOT one of those mamas!  Ah well, at least it is good when we do have it.

Re: First in '10 Thursday Check In

  • QOTD: as much as I was told that it gets better in the 2nd tri, it's only gotten a little bit better.

    We average about 3x / week which I think is pretty good.

  • I'm team PINK! Found out Tuesday.  Please add  me!

    I have def had more of a sex drive this time! Not so much w/ my 1st though.

  • What sex life? Indifferent  No, really, it's not that bad but between my getting tired earlier at night and DH working crazy hours right now it's not happening that often.  Just living for the weekends!

  • My sex drive is DEAD. I think we've had sex a total of 8 or so times during this entire pregnancy.

  • QOTD: Ours is about the same... 1-2 x per week...

    Goodness!  DH would be in heaven. LOL, that is awesome!

  • QOTD: My poor FH heard the same rumor that all pregnant women are sex crazed maniacs, only to have me be so disinterested in sex I feel almost guilty.  I was giving in a couple times a week for a while but now he is lucky to get it once every two weeks.  Maybe this big sex drive will come a little later? Oh well.  
  • We only have sex about once a week maybe. My sex drive is fine but I think DH is afraid to hurt me or the baby.

  • Janumommies Exchange Post She did manage to get the link up, the post was a few pages back, but here it is for everyone. :D

     QOTD: The sex life has been kind of non existant.. more due to stress then pregnancy. That and the motion brings up wonderful nausea! LOL

  • Wow! all you ladies are much better then me! I can't stand the thought of sex! We haven't had sex since before we found out we were pregnant! So that is about 4 months!!!! I feel really bad, but I just can't even think about it!
  • QOTD: Our sex life has actually gotten better. He thinks my bump is sexy. Smile
  • I'm not an increased sex drive mama either. I feel bad...especially because that's what everyone apparently told DH.  Whoops. 
  • My sex drive is fine. But trying to get comfortable having sex is another issue! lol

  • Hi!

    QOTD: I would have to say that the last few weeks have been a huge improvement to the first 18 when I was throwing up nonstop. Now that I am feeling better DH and I are apparently wanting to make up for lost time. haha. Although we also recently had his brother and wife move out (finally) and so having the house to ourselves again has made us feel like newlyweds so we've been going at it pretty much every night. I'm sure things will taper off again once the novelty wears off and we'll get back to our average 3x a week.

  • Sex drive is okay. He always wants it so for him nothing changed.
  • QOTD: Mine comes and goes. Some weeks we have sex almost every day. Other weeks, it's only once or twice.

    By the way, I'm new to the group. I'm due January 17th. We find out on Monday whether we are Team Pink or Team Blue. Smile

  • My big u/s is at this time tomorrow! Can't wait!

    QOTD: Our sex life is also non-existant. I have no desire at all, the two times we've had sex it was very painful. So I just take care of DH every once in awhile so he can release the pressure!

    My sex drive is same as before... but the sex is def better... when I'm not too tired for it.

  • QOTD: Our sex life hasn't changed much. We were newlyweds when I got pregnant, and have kept up pretty much the same pace. The only difference is now we have to work on finding more comfortable positions for me.

  • QOTD: No drive. Too much pelvic pain these days. Doc said to refrain for the next few weeks while we keep an eye on my anterior placenta (she said we don't want to aggravate my cervix for now).

     On another note, I think it's exciting that our teams are so close together!!

     Hi! We have the same due date! :D 

  • Ours is great :) We have sex 3 to 4 times a week. Sometimes more if I'm up to it!
  • QOTD: Ha. Not fabulous. Pre-pregnancy I'd say we averaged 2-3 times/week and now it's more like once/week at best. Oh well.

  • Our sex life is getting better, I guess.  For a while it was once every several weeks, now it's about once a week.  Unfortunately it is quite uncomfortable sometimes, which really puts a damper on things :-/

  • Sex life these days? What sex life? (sigh) We haven't had sex for weeks because I have been batteling yeast infection upon yeast infection, then i got BV and as a result of the antibiotics another yeast infection (i just finished the medication yesterday). So HOPEFULLY we will be able to get lucky this weekend... I HOPE!

  • QOTD: Sex drive is OK... not great but not bad. I definitely have NOT seen an increase, as I was told lol. DH loves the curves and my belly, so I try to make more of an effort :-)
  • I do not really have must of a sex drive these days.  Confused  Poor DH!  We probably average once every two weeks or so. 

    Wow, now that I have typed that out...  POOR DH!  I should just suck it up and initiate more often. 

    BTW, we are officially team blue! 

  • It's definitely improved over 1st tri. But we're still lucky to have sex once a week. Hopefully my sex drive will kick back up some more now that we aren't busy every night of the week.

  • I had almost no sex drive pre-PG, it's pretty much the same now.  My poor, poor DH. :(

  • My sex drive is nonexistent.  I talk myself into it (usually) a couple of times a week and enjoy it once it is happening, but it's the talking myself into it that is difficult most of the time.
  • while i am very "horny and in the mood" sex is uncomfortable and far between sessions.   dh doesn't find pg sex fun-doesn't enjoy it as much.   so we just go for it whenever.   he did enjoy when i let him do more backside exploration :)
  • We have no sex life!  I feel so bad for DH, he's a trooper for putting up with me.  I just can't get in the mood at all.  I am so glad to read all of your posts and realize that I am not alone in this drought.
  • Please add me to Team Blue!!!

    QOTD:  My drive is about the same as it was pre-pregnancy, but we have had some bleeding issues so not too much action lately.

  • Though I enjoy it when it happens, I'm not driven to initiate it. Good thing we all have understanding DH's....

  • Ours is pretty much the same- we have usually been a pretty active couple in the bedroom- avg at least 3x a week- I will say that orgasm is a lot easier/faster to achieve these days Big Smile
