Sex?

Just wondering if any of you lovely ladies are making love much these days.  I for one am not and feel terrible about it.  I feel like I am always tired and fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow.  DH is also super tired from work but I am starting to feel like I'm not attractive and I'm getting a little concerned about it.  We snuggle alot and he is always hugging or kissing me.  Just wondering how things were going for everyone else!

    Seriously, the only time I get some is in my dreams.  The bad part is that I really really want some, even the new Rhianna song turns me on, but hubby can't bring himself to see past my belly :(

  • Sex? What is that? I'm in the same boat as you.

  • We haven't in a few months. Sometimes one of us wants to, but it never works. He's worried about me and the baby, and gets kind of weird about it.

    A little TMI though, maybe this could help - we still sometimes take showers together and have some fun in there. Maybe that's they key for you and DH? It's not sex, but it satisfies things for a while.

  • We have sex, but I have been so swollen lately that I am too uncomfortable for it. We did Monday night and it took so much out of me I felt like I was "recovering" the whole next day. I can't wait to feel normal again!!!!

  • Third tri has brought my sex drive back in full force.  During the first and second tri I had no interest in sex at all.  So while it is hard to have now we are finding a way.  I can't wait for sex with my regular body though!

  • Yep! My sex drive is through the roof.  Unfortunately we have to coordinate it with sleeping kids, so it doesn't happen as often as I'd like it to!

  • We have sex like everyday or at least everyother day. Not as rambunctious or spontaneous as it used to be which bums me out some, it will better once I get back to normal and can manuever again *sigh*

    Everything will turn me on at this point, but I'm always so tired I never want to actually get the deed done... and this may be TMI, but I would rather have DH use his mouth than his peter  Indifferent It feels weird in there now. But I could take the other all day.

  • DH and I haven't rolled around for about two weeks which is the longest we've gone without since DS was born almost three years ago! I'm more tired now than I have been this entire pregnancy. Plus with the time change, I'm uber exhausted. Hopefully this weekend will bring something new.....

  • Ha! Nope.  My DH is so worried that it will hurt me or the baby.  After some spotting after sex early in the second trimester, it scared him so much that he decided that it would be better to just wait until after she is born.  I'll be honest, most of the time I don't even feel like it...but when I do, that kinda sucks.

  • no sex here. My DH is still working in camp for another few days. I did manage to send him some *sexy* photos though to keep him company while he's gone. (Their internet access is restricted so all those poor guys can't even download porn, lol). I dunno whether we'll be able to have too much fun when he is back though. I'm pretty uncomfortable, so we'll see.

  • I feel like a beached whale these days, but goodness knows when I actually see DH (about once a month), I do what I can for him.

    Orgasms actually are really uncomfortable right now, so I try to avoid those as well (how sad!).  

  • we tried but i felt like the penis was going no where!!!!!!!!! ARRHHHH

    Im going to try another attempt in a diiferent position and a cuter outfit...(rather than a weird over size tee shirt)

  • I miss sex. DH had surgery and it's taking months for recovery, so there's been no sex for  a while, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. It totally sucks.

  • I think it's happened maybe once or twice in the last 3 weeks.   I'm just not that interested in sex right now.  DH is still interested, but the last couple of times it hasn't been the most comfortable experience for me. I feel too swollen down there and the belly just gets in the way and my boobs start to leak.  I'd rather pass on it, but I try to put in some effort for DH's sake.

  • It is so weird- when I was pg with DS I had no sex drive- zero.  This pg I have been super, ahem, frisky!  So strange and unexpected...but DH is loving it!

  • We do daily sometimes multiple times a day, but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt...I can't wait to feel like myself again. Not sure why DH is as into me now as he was before pregnancy. I feel gross....but I ain't complainin.

  • I wish!  I want it more often, but DH isn't interested.  I'm not sure if he's worried about the baby or if my "new" body just isn't cutting it for him.  He won't really talk about it so I think it's a combination of both.

  • My sex drive completely died in second tri!  I keep hearing about pregnant women who want sex all the time, and I totally wish that was me, but no matter how much I want to want sex, I don't think that will happen until after this pregnancy is over Sad

    DH still wants it all the time though and would do it every day if I'd let him, so I make sure it doesn't go below once or twice a week.

  • We last had sex on Valentine's Day...I have wanted to a bunch of times since then but DH can't get past the belly or the LO in the belly. He just thinks it is weird. I did inform him that we WILL be having sex at least a few more times before LO is born because after that he has to be on a mandatory 6 week dry spell.

    This. I've had no sex drive to speak of.  I hope after little man gets here, it comes back.  I miss it.

  • The past month it's been once a week...wayyyy less than I'd like but DH is so tired/stressed from work too. Right now I feel really self-concious trying to make a move anyway.

    But orgasms make me contract quite a bit though so come ~39/40 weeks I told him he didn't have a choice {we'd try to induce labor on our own-ha!}.

  • I miss sex SO much, but have absolutely no desire for it whatsoever.

  • We were doing it pretty regularly... and then the 30 week ultrasound happened and now he can't get past our little one in my belly.  I guess he can't stay turned on when he's thinking about our daughter kicking up a storm in there!

     I sincerely hope he gets over it. I'm dying here! 

  • Nope.  We've done it twice since getting pregnant.  The first time was back around 10 wks, and then I had ~18 weeks of placenta previa and pelvic rest.  I was just cleared, so we gave it a go.  Fail.  My dreams, however, have been very juicy the whole time.

    This. We both want to have sex but we're so freaked out about hurting something that we don't. But-we've been doing the shower thing too. It lets us still be intimate without doing something that will be uncomfortable. 

  • None whatsoever. We tried to once last month, and it was so uncomfortable and weird. DH is worried about early labor, I just have no desire and feel so uncomfortable and HUGE... so we don't. I really miss that intimacy between us, so I might see what I can do to try again... but for now, nada!

  • ugh lucky you lol my fiance complains the reason he doesnt like to have sex daily is because he is "getting old" (he is 29), or he is tired from work. UGH! He denies me all the time and it makes me feel really unattractive :( If it was up to me we would have sex twice a day. :D
