I will say we’re at about once a week. Husband sometimes complains that it feels like we never have sex anymore. He jokes that it’s my fault because of all the time we spent TTC and I made him have sooooo much sex then that it’s what he’s used to now! I will say that overall it’s more enjoyable as it had become a bit of a relationship strain while going through fertility treatment etc. we were on such a sex schedule for the past 2 years, to have it less frequently and only when we actually want it is an improvement.
I had some crazy sex dreams last week and they caused me to wake up MH 20 mins before our alarm for some action, which is unheard of on a weekday for me. He did not complain, haha.

DD had an accident last night, which led to 1:00 am fun for MH. That hasn't happened in years, but it was the least I could do since he changed her sheets. 😂
I had a sex dream about Daryl from The Walking Dead. I do not find him attractive. I remember at one point I kept my eyes closed so I didn't have to look at him, and he called me "a sexy little bridge." 🤔

@shamrocandroll this is hilarious, yet any time we have a sex dream involving someone we don’t think we want to have sex with in real life it’s extremely disturbing and uncomfortable. I hope you can somehow erase him from your memory!
The past two times we’ve had sex I have had this weird not comfortable feeling for the following day. Like my vagina wants to fall out...it’s kind of the same feeling I have during my period (which started with my periods after having a baby, I never felt this way before kids).

Maybe a FFC I use nap time on weekends to get laid and it's my favorite part of the week. Sadly MH isn't around this weekend so I'm bumming with boring nap times. Also we stuck dd in front of the TV this week while we cleaned the bedroom and got a quicky in too, thank you coco melon.
I'm pretty sure when I was pregnant with her we had sex 5 times in 9 months and then not again until she was 3 months old.... So this pregnancy is so much different.
Well I tried to have sex with my husband. He asked if I was actually horny, I said I haven’t been for months but I give it a go once in awhile when I don’t feel like crap. Today was one of those days. It all started out good then all I could think about was that it was making me need to pee (even though I already did 100 times today) and wanting it to be over soon. Hopefully next time goes better.
Just had sex for the first time in two months (our libidos have not been lining up). Pretttty sure the entire time DH was just thinking about how I’m pregnant and was trying to power through it 🤷🏾♀️
I finally let DH have sex with me after the anatomy scan 😂 I word it like that because when it’s been this long, there’s only one person enjoying it.... spoiler: not me! Fortunately, DH is more horny when I’m pregnant. Unfortunately, I am not. He acts like a starved child and I’m just like 🤷🏻♀️ haha
@pirateduck lmao to YH’s dramatics. After conception sex, we literally didn’t have sex til last week. My DH always jokes that I only “use him for his seed” 😂🙄
My husband claims that all the time TTC and the fertility treatments when timing was everything that I’ve conditioned him to want sex all the time and I can’t just expect him to turn it off now!
Ah-hahaha, men are so dramatic. My sex drive has been pretty high this pregnancy. Last pregnancy, it was not. We didn't have much sex in the first tri due to my SCH, but the 2nd tri has been pretty action packed, haha. I mentioned "alone time" on our drive home Sunday, and MH was literally standing there like a starved puppy waiting for me to take my vitamins after DS fell asleep later that night. Keep in mind we had just done it on Wednesday.

Wednesday and Sunday? You're a superstar @shamrocandroll! 😂 I have no desire at all. I throw MH a bone once a week or so, but it's really not very fun for me.
It must be a hormone thing. When I was pregnant with my boys sex was awesome, this time I’d rather poke my eyeballs out with a rusty fork. Please go away until the year 2021.
I never feel like having sex these days, I don't know if it's hormones or just the general exhaustion and blah feeling, but when I decide to just go for it anyway it does tend to be enjoyable.
My sex drive has been higher than normal in the 2nd trimester. You think MH would be all about it since he's normally the one wanting it, but now he's all freaked out since I'm visibly pregnant. I tell him he has to get over it and give me love lol. Though we skipped this weekend since I had some bleeding. I'm sure we'll be cleared to go for this weekend!
@lisush my DH is the same way. Pregnancy sex really freaks him out and I’ve been super Randy lately. I’ve been basically begging for the past couple weeks and he was finally into it. I doubt my sex drive will last like this for much longer. Once the 3rd trimester hits, I fully expect that sex will be the last thing on my mind.
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one not interested in sex. My sex drive has totally tanked. I feel bad because we've only had sex once since finding out I was pregnant. MH hasnt pushed it at all and said he's leaving it up to me to initiate when I feel like it but the problem is I never do!
DF keeps saying I need it now since after baby you can't have sex FOREVER, I was like dude it is six weeks maybe a little more, you will live I promise you that.
These all make me LOL because apparently men are all the same! MH is in the same camp of “will we ever have sex again” and it was like 2 weeks. My sex drive is about the same, as in I don’t ever really feel like having sex normally so that’s how I am now. I do try to at least go once a week so MH doesn’t complain too much. IDK how he’s going to survive 6 weeks but he claims he will be fine.
