Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

So I have to find out is this existing in your 3rd trimester? I think about it alot but the physical act is exhausting to me and I really feel like it takes me time to recover! lol
Just wanted to know if it was just me. I feel bad for DH because I am trying and do try and we are successful but I guess with my growing body I am not as comfortable or sexy feeling for that matter, we are down to like 2x every 2 weeks so sad huh!

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

Last week I was totally up for it, a few times actually

This week- not so much. DH approached me last night and I just didn't have it in me. I tried, but everytime I moved I got out of breath and I felt huge and tired.

I have a feeling it will end completely, VERY shortly.

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

As 3rd tri has progressed I've become more and more uncomfortable....where as before I wouldn't let it stop me, its pretty uncomfy now


Sometimes I feel slightly bad but I think of all the sacrifices I have to make being pregnant and then think DH can suck it up

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

im an awful wife.. ill leave it at that some days i feel bad and some days i feel.. serves you right im miserable daily now this is his way of misery!

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

It is non-existent. *shrug*

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

im not in the third tri yet, but its been totally non exisistent. im sick every nite with reflux and borderline vomitting that i cant even function normally.

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

i think about it a lot , even dream about it, we try for 1x a week but my body is not the same as it was (and its not the same for me anymore), its impossible for me to roll over let alone do anything else

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

I think about it a lot... in theory it's great but then when we actually get down to it, my huge belly impedes a lot of it My pubic area also hurts a lot from the weight of the baby on my hernia, so that takes some of the pleasure out of it too. We are down to once a week now.. sometimes less

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

It still exists, not as often as I'd like though.

I don't feel attractive or even remotely appealing most days, but I still want to have sex.

Finding a time when we're both not exhausted is a challenge enough for us, not to mention that we're limited with options, and the fact that we live in my parents house.

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

It's definetaly not like it used to be! I am so big and get uncomfortable so easily it's been hard. last night was the first time we had sex in 2 weeks. It's tough because we are down to only one position that we can do. I feel bad for DH because i know it bothers him but he understands. I miss being able to have awesome sex with different positions and different moves. It doesn't help that I feel so un-atrractive with this extra 34 pounds on me too. I just hope we can get that back after comes.

ETA: Guess i can't spell today

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

Yes and no. I want to but it is physically exhausting. We recently we in th emiddle of things and started kicking like crazy, you could see and feel my stomach moving. DH and were hysterical laughing but it kind of killed the mood a little. It was like he was right there in between us and not in my belly. So to answer your question, not as much as usual, it is very sporadic now.

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

I am not in my 3rd tri yet but it is non-existent over here my belly keeps getting in the way or I'm just to tired!

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

Sorry I had to run out to lunch!! I am glad I am not alone :) My dreams are insane, sometimes I wake up like they are so vivid....but it's just too hard to keep it up all the time, I also try to aim for 1x a week! But it doesn't always happen I am more sad for me lol!

Re: Third Tri Girls and Sex sorry if TMI

we definately have phases. I think about it constantly but doing it is another story. I find that I get way too uncomfy at times & to find a position that works best, is difficult with the evergrowing belly. DH is on the other hand, he is not asking for it like he use to. He says it is just not the same since I can't really move & he thinks it feels different. We are down to maybe 1x every 2 weeks, sometimes longer
