Sex

Wanted to know if it's weird that I find it uncomfortable to have sex ..haven't tried from the last 4 weeks ..
I feel discomfort usually with pelvic pressure etc and worry about it being too much to try now ...
My husband never pushes me or tells me we need to have it because he thinks I will tell him wen I feel ok to do it ..
But I am worried that hopefully dsnt toughen my labor...
Any suggestions?

@pris08 I'm def going to take that backwards crab advice because I have had this sex problem for months. Husband has been very patient and understanding, but I know deep down all the men misses the pleasure.

Due 11/9, 37wks+4

I'm 36 weeks and am too sensitive inside... It's like too much! I read the blood flow can cause engorgement of tissues and cause discomfort or the feeling of him being too large. Anyway, it's just hormones.

*Just know that having sex close to your due date could cause you to go into labor if unprotected because sperm helps thin out the cervix.

I had that same problem especially having too big of a belly to do missionary. If you don't feel comfortable, i'm sure your partner would understand. The most important thing is the safety of the baby and your body will tell you if there is something wrong. Justvknow that
