Sexy time :(

me and my husband tried to have sex last night... I felt so horrible afterwards. It just did not work...anyone else have this problem? It was painful! Like everything has tightened up down there and it's so hard to become aroused... And I have an extremely good looking husband who can usually just look at me and I get horny! I started to cry and I could tell he was aggravated... Not a good night last night... :(

Re: Sexy time :(

  • Yeah. This happened to me on the 4th. We were messing around and started to try to have our sexy time and I was so swollen we couldn't even start so we had to back up and try other things to even start to enjoy any sexy time. This didn't happen with my first. We had sex all the way up until I had my c section. I feel so bad for my hubby. He's doing a great job of staying positive though. I just know it's going to be a long 6 weeks for him after the twins are born before we can have any sexy time again. :(.

  • as long as everything goes back to normal after those 6 weeks... I can't wait to have sex with him again. And feel like myself in the process!

    No worries.. this is my 3rd pregnancy.
    It will all go back to normal :-) hang in there.
  • Thankyou. ☺️
  • I had the same issue the other day. Hurt so bad I was in tears griping the bed so I wouldn't cry out loud. We had to use lube just to get it going! Now he wants to do it more to help baby come out as I'm due tomorrow but I can't even imagine going through that again.
  • My husband actually gets turned on more from me in pain :-O. I'm like.. no dude..not happening. I feel gross from being so swollen.. thankfully he has backed off and said he understands.
  • I'm so opposite right now! I want it all the time and can't get it because SO is working overtime and is always exhausted...#sux I'm 38+2 and due for induction next week on the 16th. I was trying to get it in b4 I deliver because I know it will be a long 6 weeks PP. lol
  • If you can't have sex all the way, why not try other stuff? Intimacy is the most important part to me.
  • Same here! Don't feel bad about it but I know it sucks. It's so uncomfortable we've basically given up trying but I'm looking forward to it after my six weeks post partum!
  • To the STM moms out there...does sex feel different after having a baby??
  • STM here it took awhile for sex to b good after the baby...i was so stretched out i just couldn't feel anything (dont tell ur DH that, found out thats insulting lol) anywho it does come back and when it does its even better than before...but u r n for a wait..i think it took me almost 6 months to enjoy it..do ur kegels and work her out...i had a 4th degree tear also sooo i was really messed up down there
  • I'm 41 weeks pregnant and there is exactly 1 sex position that works for me and my husband. Every other way feels way too painful. It's possible you just need to try different positions.

  • STM here. We waited the recommended 6 weeks. I had a very small internal tear that required only one stitch, so I was thinking I was in the clear and sex was gonna be phenom when we did it again. Then we are doing it the first time and out of no where it feels like someone has either stuck a knife or a hot poker in my clit. From the normal stretching of childbirth, I had experienced some temporary nerve damage. It didn't happen every time we got busy, but it took about 6 months for me to notice it wasn't happening anymore. Nothing says fun sexy time like bucking your husband off of you like a rodeo bull and yelling while you cup your vag.
  • Lol you all are hilarious..but TTM here!! I am 37w 4d and I can only do 2 positions but once done I'm very uncomfortable and kinda burning inside we rarely do it...any1 else had burning afterwards? My doc said there is nothing wrong tho. With my 1st 2...we had sex up until time and wasn't painful at all. And after my 6 wks were up..little kitty bounced back very quickly and it was on!! Hoping it's the same this time..even tho I'm caring a pretty big boy. :(
  • I can't remember the last time we had sex! I can't find a position I am comfortable with and my legs become very sore afterwards. I have trouble walking. So we just stick to oral sex and other stuff. Still satisfying but I miss sex. I had no problems during the first pregnancy but #2 is just sitting way to low. Can't wait for this baby to come out!

    Yep this happened to me last night. It's very disappointing but we are almost there
  • I had the same issue around 35 weeks and now at 40 weeks it's a lot better for some reason. My boyfriend and I have been a little more comfortable with everything. We've realized you have to find a position that both of you like and can be comfortable. We tried putting pillows under nearth me, my bump was relaxed and everything went well. You just have to try different things. Our problem was my boyfriend would find it weird to feel the baby move during so we changed things up. I hope this helps a little, I swear it gets better!
