Hi hun this is not uncommon. I completely lost my sex drive in the early days once I hit 15 weeks it started to turn around and now poor DH just hasto look at me and I try jumping him

Keep telling your partner it won't be long I am sure if he loves you he will understand but try not get too stressed about it. In the meantime you could always try satisfying him in otherways so he gets relief but doesn't have to touch you or you could try lubricant. Best of luck and dont' worry I am sure in will return.

Look upon it as good practise for the next 5 years

I do have some advice but I apologise in advance if it causes any offence and is TMI...

I think the sex drive works in a supply and demand way, the more you have it the more you want it, and the less you have it the sex drive decreases.

Obviously you have the added problem of sore boobs and hormones, but there is something you can try that has worked well for me in my past pregnancies.

Get some good lubricant and use it on yourself, by yourself if you know what I mean. Get into the habit of doing this atleast every other day and you should find your sex drive increases within a few days!

There other positions you could try aswell which take the pressure off your boobs ie you on top, and the added exitement of trying new positions should help too.

Hope that makes sense and isnt too rude

I think in the early days of pregnancy (especially if you are feeling rough) then it's normal for your sex drive to be affected.

I went right off sex for almost all the first trimester. I went along with it a few times for OH's sake but had no real libido myself. I just kept thinking of the baby in there and it put me off.

As time went on things improved and now I'm almost back to normal with OH.

Be patient with yourself. I'm sure your OH will understand your body is going through changes.

my sex drive has diminshed during pregnancy .I always had higher sex drive than DH ...I now can't relax having sex since I have been able to feel the baby move so we have just given up till this one comes along.

try doing intemate things that don't involve sex cuddling up together ,sharing a bath or massage.

I haven't got a sex drive at the moment and we haven't done anything for over a month. He kept trying the other day and ended up nearly getting a slap! He thought that maybe I would change my mind so decided to keep trying it on which really got to me. I have to keep saying to him " I'm pregnant, that area belongs to the baby, I'm not in the mood so go and have a cold shower! " He soons gets the message.

in the 1st tri my prob was i was just too tired. i felt sorry for OH but when he tried to initiate things i became aroused and we were ok. since about 14/15 weeks i just cannot put OH down so things might get better for you im now starting to find it difficult to find a position that is comfortable
