Not interested in sex...

Am I the only one not interested in sex?? I'm 39 + 3 an everyone from my dr to family an friends are telling me lots of sex will make the baby come.  Not only do I feel absolutely huge an unattractive, my hubby is afraid he's gonna hurt me or the baby. As much as I want to meet my little guy I'm just not interested in sex at all! I know that DH wouldnt be hurting me or the baby but with it being our first he's just a little bit uncomfortable with the idea which I'm ok with too since I feel like a cow, just hoping I'm not the only one not gettin jiggy!

  • You're not alone!  If DH and I weren't so desperate to get this baby out there would be no sex.  Surprisingly I think I'm more paranoid about hurting the baby during sex than DH is, which I know is not really logical.  However I have to admit that sex does seem to help things progress.  I seemed to lose my mucus plug shortly after and it also seemed to help get some contractions going.

  • Definitely not the only one! I would love to get things moving as well with this LO, but sex for us is just out of the question. So onto the other things......

  • Sex is definitely intermittently painful right now (I think dh is bumping my cervix or something) so no, you are not alone. I think I'll go the pineapple and frequent walks route :p
    Nevermind me, I'm too distracted by my mini-carrots to think properly image

  • Sex just became uncomfy for me a few days ago. I have felt like a cow for awhile now, and when I say that my H says nothing to imply that I don't look that way.

    But I want this baby out! So the uncomfy not so attractive sex will go on.

  • I'm 100% not interested in sex but I'm 100% interested in getting this baby out so I'm taking one for the team (team ME!) not that DH is complaining!  I'm good to continue as long as it doesn't start hurting.

  • I have no idea how to have sex this late in the game. Missionary is out, obvi. I can't be on top because my belly will crush DH and he doesn't want to try any more "porny" (yeah that is a technical term) positions because he is paranoid about hurting the baby. Besides the fact that sex is just not sexy when you feel like you are "on a mission."

    Spooning or doggy style seems to work.. or laying on the edge of the bed with him standing.  Those are the the most comfortable I've found.  I'm actually not even doing it for the baby.. I'm doing it for DH.  I know he wants it and I know he won't be getting any for a while so even though it hurts sometimes (especially that third one cause sometimes he forgets and gets rough) I just deal with it... I figure any baby progress is a plus.   The only problem is that most things I've read said you should also Orgasm to help advance contractions.. and while I can deal.. I CAN'T seem to get THAT into it.
