No sex during pregnancy?

Anonymous
Its been 3 months. The longest 3 months of my life. Is this a thing a lot of women do, not have sex during pregnancy? We did for the first three months but then everything suddenly stopped.

I felt so gross pregnant I just didn't want to.

My first trimester I was throwing up 3 to 4 times a day so that was right out. We tried a couple of times during the second trimester and neither of us were that into it, so we agreed to table it. Went back to 2 to 3 times a week once the baby was four months old.

Not sure what we would've done if one person was into it and the other wasn't, so I guess it worked out well for us.

No, many women continue on with sex as usual, some even find an increased drive in the 2nd trimester.

Sex was the only time I didn't feel nauseated for the first 20 weeks - so lots of sex for that reason.

Dh was freaked by month 5. That was that.

It can go any different way, but I think a fairly typical process is:
1. Too sick during 1st trimester.
2. Good to go 2d trimester (sometimes hornier than ever).
3. Feeling too uncomfortable 3d trimester (maybe with some desperation attempts to induce pregnancy by sex at the end.)

With my wife, she really wasn't in the mood during most of pregnancy and then the first year after birth. Then we had a lot of sex while trying to conceive, then by the time #2 was a year old, we were really out of the habit, and our sex life has never really recovered.

I went into labor after having sex.

Matter of fact, pregnancy sex was THE best sex I ever had.

last trimester sex was awesome.

if your DH is turned off by it, tell him you really won't be in the mood once the baby comes.

Oh my. Doesn't make me feel better.

She's always been thin and now she says she"feels fat". I don't know if she's just self conscious about her body or what cause she really hasn't been sick much so I don't think it's that.

I felt a little bit fat and disgusting toward the end, but my sex drive was ridiculously high when I was pregnant. I sympathize with the male sex drive now that Ive experienced that. However, my husband had some weird hang up about the baby being inside of me. We had sex one time immediately after I got the positive result, and he didnt touch me for 10+ months after that.

My DH couldn't get enough when I was pregnant. He talked of my womanly curves, and how I glowed. Have you tried telling your DW that you think she looks hotter than ever?
