having sex rough or not will have no affect on the baby. it wont hurt him or her. just you. thr sex drive may come randomly depending on how you are feeling about your body. your husband may not care but you might. its basically like having sex for the first time. he just needs to take it slow.

That's my problem a lot of them either make my belly feel pressurie or make it hard to breathe or are just uncomfortable. I have literally had zero sex drive this whole time so far I'm now 26w4d and my partner and i only had sex 5 times so far and I feel bad because it upsets him sometimes but because of not having sex in so long it hurts super bad :/ ugh

Sex is starting to be uncomfortable for me too but my sex drive is finally back and I don't want to lose out. I make him start slow because it does hurt at first but after a few minutes of that we are good to go. It's the positions we have to figure out most we've have to be more creative than just our go-to moves in order to accommodate my belly. Many positions make it hard for me to breathe.

Well you can always tell your partner to be very gentle. It's important for both of you to understand that you guys are pregnant and that both of you need to be very cautious during sex.    Also try different positions that don't put pressure on your stomach.  My partner is always very scared to have sex with me because now my belly is huge and he doesn't want to hurt the baby.  So whenever we do have sex we are extremely careful and very gentle.
