Have You Had Less s*x During Your Pregnancy?

Question

Ever since I found out that I was pregnant, we have had less s*x. I asked him if he found me less attractive because of my belly. He says no. He says he is worried about hurting the baby even though I was reassured by my doctor that it is alright. I know when the baby is born, we will have less s*x. That is why I think it's important about having it beforehand. What can I do to make him want to have s*x with me?

Answer 1

sweetheart try not to worry most men are like that when it comes to pregnancy and i dont think is becausee they find pregnant women unattractive.

My husband was like that with my first pregnancy we hardly had any s*x through out the nine months.

he was so afraid of hurting the baby during penetrationon or hurting my belly during a wrong turn.

I guess it will only take time for you to talk to him in overcoming his fear

Answer 2

Honey i can sympathise!!! My other half and i had a really active s*x life until my 20 week scan when we found out were having a daughter. Suddenly he was terrified to come near me! We've spoken about it a lot,and we do have other forms of s*x than intercourse,but i do miss that intimacy. I think it is important you speak to him and let him know that a lot of women feel like having more s*x during pregnancy as all the extra hormones can make orgasms better too,and see if you can discover other ways to please. Where he isn't as worried his bits will hit the baby!

Answer 3

Alot of guys are weird when it comes to s*x during pregnancy. My boyfriend is the same way. He doesn't like to do it often.

Answer 4

May be your hubby is thinking that he would not be able to have s*x as he wants(in any position)  because you are pregnant and does not want to hurt baby and you.  

Answer 5

Have the doctor reassure him! I didn't have that problem because my hubby's mom is a nurse and he already found out from her. If anything I had alot more, because with all the hormones, my drive was as high, if not higher than his!

Answer 6

yet another great reason for birth control!!! lmao

Answer 7

Im the problem when it comes to having less s*x with my Fiance because Im either way tooo tired, feel sick, or just too tender... and  I feel really bad but my body is going through soo much Im sure I will feel better soon, and its great cos he loves my new curves!

Im sure he will change once he gets used to the idea and knows that he definately wont be hurting the baby!

Best wishes...

Answer 8

During my first trimester I was extremely ill and I've had one previous miscarriage so we both agreed to wait until after the first trimester to have s*x again, which we did. We had s*x quiet a bit until I started showing more, probably around 22-24 weeks somewhere in there. Then my husband didn't show much interest in s*x, and honestly I didn't feel like it either! I asked him why he didn't show any interest and he said he wasn't sure if it was the stress of knowing that we were going to have a baby and thinking about how much our lives would be changing, or if it was something deep down about just feeling weird having s*x with me while I'm carrying our daughter. He said it had nothing to do with my growing waist line and if I really wanted too then he would.

I really don't feel like forcing the issue of s*x and honestly the bigger I've gotten the less enjoyable I was finding it anyways, because I'm so used to be small. I went from weighing 115 to now weighing 142 lbs! I don't feel comfortable being naked in front of him currently!

If it's really that big of an issue to you, discuss it again with your husband. Explain to him why you are wanting to continue with your s*x life, but if he's still not comfortable with it, you'll have to accept that. I wouldn't want to have s*x with my husband if he wasn't really wanting to be with me. It just wouldn't feel right to me.

Good luck.

Answer 9

Answer 10
