Question - (17 July 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 18 July 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

hi all,

I'm 25 weeks pregnant and have a little problem. my partner does not want to have sex with me. he says he's frightened of hurting our baby. I've shown him the books that say its okay and even brought it up with my midwife who has said sex in my pregnancy will be fine there's no medical reason not to.

i just cant entice him back into bed!!

he says he finds me beautiful while pregnant but is scared of hurting me or the baby.

any tips as my hormones are all over the place and i'm really frustrated, anyone had any experience with this problem and guys what do you think of having sex with pregnant women - does it really turn you off?

DoubleM agony auntIn my experience pregnant women do not lose their desires, and heterosexual intercourse is certainly safe at least until the final weeks or so of pregnancy, just perhaps a bit more gentle nearing birth. And either partner can certainly enjoy mutual oral pleasures throughout.

As long as there are no other problems in your relationship that would cause him to be avoiding sex with you, it may be something you just have to accept and live with until you give birth.

I went through the same thing with my dh with all our kids. Great sex life, no problems, then, pregnancy and terror, lol.

Rationally, they know they can't hurt the baby, but they are afraid anyway. Chalk it up to how much he loves you and muddle through.
