Anyone else scared to have sex???

Casie13 · July 2012

I feel bad for DH, but I am scared to do it! Plus, there are other ways to keep him happy.

We had a miscarriage in Jan, so I'm nervous to do anything that might cause problems. I'm more confident in this pregnancy, but still a lil' over-cautious. My friends that have babies told me to just go for it. They said that it can cause some bleeding, but it's nothing to worry about. I was thinking of waiting until I'm further along. What do you ladies think??? Am I being a nervous ninny?

So, is this your second pregnancy? You know, I had a feeling with my first that it wasn't going to work out. With this one, I am much more confident and happy. Do you feel better with this pregnancy than you did with the last? My Dr. said that a lot of women know if the pregnancy will end in miscarriage. I definitely did with my last. I sorta worry that I am being over confident now, but I do feel more peace with this one.

I feel ya. 3 days before I miscarried DH and I had sex and I started spotting the next day. I know that sex did not cause the miscarriage, and I know that I'm being crazy, but as long as is makes me feel better, I will continue to abstain. DH is also hesitant to have sex also, so I really don't have guilt though.

Didn't think that before, and now I do. But I have not been in the mood anyway.

Michbot12:

Yes, this is my second pregnancy. I had spotting pretty early on and I did have a bad feeling about it. In fact, I remember googling like crazy the m/c rates before I even started spotting. We measured behind an entire week which I know couldn't be correct based on when we BDed so that really made me suspicious. We got a heartbeat a week before I officially m/c'ed but I have to admit, it didn't make me feel as relieved as I thought it would. I feel a little more at peace this time but that could be because I have had surgery to remove the uterine septum that they believe caused my 1st m/c, and I am under the care of an RE so I have had early testing to help check things out (progesterone was low so I got on meds right away). Oh yeah, and the superstitous part of me always wanted an April baby so I think that it is meant to be, ha! I guess only time will tell!

I think that we are meant to have these babies! I did the same thing the first time - checked miscarriage rates, thought about m/c constantly, worry, worry, worry...I also measured really low. They thought that I was only 2 weeks along since my HCG was only about a 25. I had to have been further along than that, but honestly - there is not a way to really know. I have PCOS and my periods were not regular. This pregnancy is the result of clomid, so I had a couple regular periods before this. I think that also helped to make my body healthier for this baby.

I'm in the same boat. I really don't feel in the mood and I've been crampy and spotting. I spotted a lot with my first but it still freaks me out a little bit, at least until we get our first doctors appointment.
