Sex drive

I know everyone said I'd have an increased sex drive--but I'm not. Is this normal or am I letting insecurities getting the best of me??!?

Re: Sex drive

  • Once I stopped feeling sick my sex drive went up, but I think that's because it's been way more intense since I got pregnant...I mean WAY more.

  • I have no sex drive, and it has been this way from the 5th week. Very occasionally i'll wake up a little more Wink  but that disappears quickly. I have a friend who lost her mojo at the start of pregnancy and didn't regain in until she quit breastfeeding.

    Apparently it's all normal. Tho I do feel a little ripped off when I hear of women having amazing sex whilst pregnant.

  • My sex drive hasn't changed at all since pre-pregnancy.  Not that it matters since the doctor says no sex, which totally sucks.

  • Not everyone gets an increased sex drive. Sometimes it's because of worry about hurting the baby and sometimes it's about body insecurities. Don't worry, everything will even itself out.

  • My drive is up significantly; I want it/think about it a LOT, but my body image is holding me back.  I didn't really have this issue with DS, I'm not sure why I'm having such a hard time embracing my pregnant shape this time.  It's really frustrating.

  • I have zero sex drive and feel really bad for my DH. He is being a trooper and being patient and understanding. It just stinks.

  • Mine is way up. I don't think my husband knows what hit him.
  • very low unfortunately.  for some reason it was very uncomfortable the last 2 times we had it.  maybe its a twin thing, i dunno.

  • Sex dirve, HaHaHa-what is that?!!!? I have NO sex drive at all! its really sad, poor DH
  • The VERY few times hubby and I attempted this in the last 5 months it was soooo uncomfortable for me. I really don't want to to do it at all until baby is out of me. July + 6weeks can't come fast enough...

  • I was hoping for an increased sex drive during the second tri like a lot of people I know have gotten but it didn't happen for me :( In the first tri it was a bit lower than usual due to m/s and feeling tired all the time, and now it is just the same as it was before pregnancy. Bummer!!
