Since being pregnant, I'm totally uninterested in sex and affection...

A female , *onni writes:

I've been seeing a lovely guy for over 2 years now. We live together and I'm now pregnant to him.(We're both 28.)

The thing is, since being pregnant(now 10 weeks), I've gone completly off sex/affection/kissing etc. Now I'm worried cos I don't want to fall out of love with him. Is it just my hormones?

I hate feeling like this but can't force myself on him either. This pregnancy was planned; I already have a 4 year old girl whom I brought up on my own from when I was first pregnant, so I'm not used to having men around me.

What's wrong with me??!!

I have been in exactly the same situation, and trust me, it is just your hormones. Pregnancy is very exhausting, and with a little one already, your days are hetic. Take time to reassure your partner. Make sure he knows how your feeling, and that you still love him, because you don't want him to think that he's the problem, and if your honest, he'll be more understanding and supportive. You can also pleasure him in other ways until you get your sex drive back, and honestly, you will! Good luck, and i hope all goes well for you.

There are many feelings you go through when pregnant one of these is losing interest in affection sometimes it's the opposite and your feelings grow stronger either way this is just a phase while your pregnant. Once your hormones calm down you'll be back to normal.

Hopefully, by the time you've given birth to your second child, that you'll want to have sex again like you usually do. If not then maybe you should think about if you love your boyfriend or not.

There is nothing wrong with you, you don't feel like having sex because you are pregnant, that is pretty common. Quickies are sometimes good if you don't want to keep rejecting your partner. Once you get started you might find that you can reach orgasm more quickly while pregnant as there is more blood flow to your sex organs. Try giving your husband some instead of recieving it might feel different but better.

It is most likely because you are pregnant. I am 6 months pregnant now and during the first trimester i had sex maybe 3 times. Don't feel bad, you will get over it and your feelings will go back to normal. Maybe you can help him out in a different way until you feel up to sex?
