Needs a girl point of view!!!! HELP!!!!

My girlfriend is 20weeks pregnant and has not been interested at all  in having sex or anything of that sort since she was 9weeks. I have given up on asking/hinting about it because im tired of getting turned down about it but am i wrong for thinking that atleast she could atleast give in everyonce in a blue moon? This is going to be the first child for both of us and i know shes going thru a bunch of changes in all. With the stress built up of not getting any and then everyone around me make it seem like these should be the good times where we could do it all the time and not worrying about her getting pregnant (again) lol just worried well im going thru this dry spell and then once the baby gets here its just gunna be too much going on for us to really have time for it then too. Im not trying to base our relationship on sex or say that ima leave her because of it bt i dont wanna act like it doesnt effect me how do i go about explaining this to her without sounding bad about it?? Just want a girls point of view

I'm 23 weeks and I honestly don't wanna have sex most of the time. Since I was like 3 or 4 months pregnant. I think it's normal and I know it ***** but hopefully she'll want it again after the baby.

I've lost my desire to have sex I was easily turned on before I got pregnant everyday I would want it. So now it's ruff for my babys father from having sex every day to having it not at all in 2 weeks.. I'm 24 weeks now and my hormones are changing and my desire is starting to come back but I'm not easily turned on now. He would do steps rub my belly and slowly reach down there rub give me kisses on my lips and kiss my neck and lick my nipples Srry if I'm saying to much but maybe yuh should try these things and see where it goes..

For some women, desire simply goes away during pregnancy.  It's not fun to have sex if you have zero desire to have sex, it feels invasive and unpleasant.  You say "I don't want to act like it doesn't affect me," and you should let her know she is still sexy to you, but if the problem is that pregnancy has removed her sexual desire, you can't do a lot about it.  (Complaining to her that you are horny is not going to somehow turn on the juices for her if she simply is not horny at all.)

Maybe she could meet you halfway and give you a hand job?  Just being together naked and a hand job, perhaps you could make do with that during the pregnancy?

A tip about when the baby comes -- I noticed when our baby was little, my desire for sex with my husband would go up when I saw him making the effort with the baby, taking care of the baby and also watching out for me.  Possibly this was because I was less tired if he would carry some of the load of the 24/7 childcare, but also it made me feel closer to him if he seemed to be totally on board with the thing that was on my shoulders all the time, which was our baby and his care.  If my husband had added on to the load I was carrying around by copping attitude about his needs, he would have been part of the problem and not part of the solution, and that would not have been very sexually appealing.
