Did you say ORGASM?

[IsabelleCanada]

This is a frustration venting episode and not a question... I keep reading posts where one lady mentiones bleeding everytime she has sex, the other lady talks about having Braxton-Hicks everytime she has an orgasm, this and that about sex.

Y'all are pregnant and having a whole lot of sex? Am I the only one that would rather watch paint dry rather than have sex with my husband? We usually have a normal sex life but when I'm pregnant and feeling like Shamu, I just can't get into that mood, too tired, too fat. Sorry, not interested. Everything hurst and I'm out of breath. And that's on a good day.

I'm not saying that you pregnant ladies having sex out there is a bad thing, on the contrary, I'm exceedingly jealous of you! Good for you! Knock yourselves out!

But for my part, we're in a sexual recession to say the least.

Needed to vent.

hahahahaha....lol.....that's too funny.  I am starting not to feel that attractive either....I'm only 5 weeks and my pants still fit but they are feeling a bit snug....it's more an uncomfortable psychological feeling of squishing my uterus...so I think that I'm going to get some comfy pants so I don't feel so confined.   As for the sex part I think that my husband is clean out of luck for now....poor guy.

I feel the total opposite! LOL. My belly is getting bigger and rounder, but my skin and hair look GREAT. My husband practically drools when I wear certain things (he has a thing about platform sandals and capris...lol), and he makes me feel SO sexy. He's always rubbing my belly and kissing me. BUT...he's still freaked out by the spotting I'm having the one time a week we DO have sex, and he is paranoid about hurting the baby. So we try to satisfy ourselves in other ways...but it just ain't the same! :::sigh::: I miss our sex life.

Oh that's my feeling on the matter....I didn't want to disturb the embryo at all..I'm ultra paranoid.  I feel sorry for my DH.  

I'm actually a little more interested these days, but I feel like shamuu and I just don't feel that attractive!!  I just don't think it would be that enjoyable for me worrying about what DH would be thinking of me.   I know that's crazy, but I just look at myself and feel sooo puffy.

I know what you mean adgal.....it was a chore after a while when we were ttc.....can you imagine even my husband towards the end of our "window" time during O wasn't even interested......now I think that was a FIRST!.   For my first pregnancy I had NO INTEREST in sex AT ALL, I was like you Yvette, I could have gone for months post partum without even a smooch......BUT now I am 5 wks into this new pregnancy and those lustful feelings are pouring over me in waves.....NOW there is no way on earth I will tell my husband because he would just jump at the chance now.....but I will not take a chance and "disturb" this little bean before it has time to stick!!!  

[adgal]

In my world these days it's become almost a job...yep ovulating...its time...sigh..so sad. lol.  I remember the days when it was just for fun...doesn't seem all that long ago.

[96744mom]

what's sex??? oh...wait....i vaguely recall something happening between my hubby and myself.....oh yes that's how we all got here isn't it!!! Wow, I almost forgot about that. :)

[carebear0202]

Just adding to the thread...not a whole lot of action going on at my house! I'm tired and big, but try to once a week or every other week. For him, not for me! You girls are soooo funny!! :O)

[Diabolicafemmia]

now I dont feel like such a bad wife.....
the only issue is my poor husband was deployed for 15mo, and I was pregnant when he got back (in vitro...didnt need him there! :)  )and resticted, so we both may be born again virgins by the time it happens again!
I must say I don't even have an urge, poor guy.

[adgal]

Boy did that headline catch my attention...lol. Hang in their hon!!  Your almost there!!!!  Hey, curious, did you finalize a name...did you stick with your original ones??

[YvetteY]

I completely ditto the following: "I'm pregnant and feeling like Shamu, I just can't get into that mood, too tired, too fat. Sorry, not interested"

Fortunately we are restricted to no sex and we have to do other things and I just try to avoid everything right now.  I could really go the distance of this pregnancy and probaby 6 months post partum with out it!

[rdh1981]

What a funny post!! I have to admit.....lately I have kind of been in the mood too. I am waaaaaaaaay to scared to have sex, but like the nice ER nurse said, "you have other options", I am so down with those other options (blush)

I guess me and Tricia need to start our on post about crazy preggo ladies and all their needs!!! he he he

[SoCalTricia]

Oh, Isabelle...I WISH I didn't want sex. At least then I wouldn't be frustrated. I swear, I'm a freak of nature. :::sigh::: Ah well...soon enough, I'm sure I WON'T want it (like when I'm about to pop, then exhausted after the baby is born). But, of course, because Murphy wrote some stupid laws, my husband will be a horn-dog at that point. Our timing *****. LOL.

LMAO - but at least you're nearing the goal line!  The prize is almost at hand.  Some of us haven't gotten that lucky yet.
