How much sex are you having?

We just had sex this afternoon for the first time in over 3 weeks and although it was a quickie (about a minute), it was just what I needed after feeling like crap for the past few days.
I seriously cannot wait to have this baby to start working on getting my body back so I can feel somewhat attractive again.
A crazy, drunk sex night is what I miss the most

Re: How much sex are you having?
Funny you should say that, right after we were done, I felt mild contractions for about an hour, then they stopped.Then I remembered, sex is suppose to help with labor. Duh!
I am going to start asking for more quickies from now on!
This is how I feel about it:
SCANDAL!
I had absolutely zero sex drive for a while, then he started doing a bit of foreplay today and that got me heated!
It was a little uncomfortable a few times because he was pressing his body too hard on mine that I thought the baby and dinner was going to squeeze out.

Baby Boy Born 10/11/12! (Not on purpose)
I feel the same way except I want to!
I am very similar. I consider myself mostly asexual, which is really a sexual orientation. I am personally not opposed to sex and will fully consent to it if I feel like it, but that doesn't mean that I have a craving for it. To me it's something that simply *is* and I am rather indifferent toward it. I suppose I don't necessarily dislike it, but I don't desire it, either. But I like physical pleasure, and DH and I do other things for sure. A lot of times it seems like if people do have an idea of asexuality, they have the impression that it means someone hates any sort of activity that could be considered of a sexual nature (or that they are anti-sex and think sex is bad and other's shouldn't have it--I am actually a VERY sex positive person, in that I think people need to have as much of it as they want without shame, but hopefully safely!)
Complete honesty: before today, the last time we had actual penis in vagina sex was when we conceived this baby. We've now started the "sex to hope semen ripens my cervix" thing, which I proposed and of course DH was on board with; me being asexual doesn't mean that him having sex with me is rape. If I don't say yes to it, we do something else, but he asks so rarely that I usually simply don't mind. We also abstained in early pregnancy because I was spotting for a long time and I was afraid to make it worse, so I don't think it would have been an option regardless. But if I am indifferent (and therefore not feeling negatively about it) and it makes him feel good, then I'll give the thumbs up. I don't lay there hating it while it happens but I don't hope it never ends, either. Like I said, to me, it just is.
But I must say, if orgasms have any chance of jumpstarting labor, I am surprised this baby isn't here already. haha.

Anywhere from once to three times a week. Usually when it's just once a week I'm either feeling like absolute crap, or H and I just really aren't connecting well that week. My sex drive has been so up and down that it's really a guessing game as to how much we'll have.
But I guarantee once I hit 37 weeks (Thursday! Yaaay!) we'll be having a LOT more of it to try to get things going, even if I feel disgusting or am irritated at my husband, haha.
We were doing good during 2nd tri and beginning of 3rd but then I lost part of my mucous plug and DH got nervous. Now I am having random contractions and sex just causes more so we've slowed down a bit. The only position I feel comfortable in is cowgirl and the big belly is front and center, can't wait for some variety!
