feeling un-sexy
so my husband and i have been married a little over 4 months. he's a great man and we both work. he works during the day and i work at night. i'm also 5 months pregnant. for some reason, which he says he can't explain, he's NEVER in the mood for sex anymore. now i'd like to think that i'm a pretty confident woman, and i've never been afraid to initiate when i wanted it. but i'm at the point in my pregnancy where i'm not feeling sexy enough on my own and with little to no effort from him, i'm starting to feel like he doesn't want to have sex with me at all. i'm getting pent up and i need some advice on what, if anything, i can do to fix this. we only have a few more months before the baby is here and then we really won't have time for each other, let alone our sex life.
Re: feeling un-sexy
What you need to do: TALK to him about this.
Tell him what you've told us.
He's your partner; you should be able to talk to him about anything --- and he owes it to you to make sure he makes you happy.
I went through the same thing with my baby's father. My getting pregnant wasn't planned nor did he want the baby at first. Well he also isn't the easiest person to talk to and this put a lot of extra stress on an already hard pregnancy. My advice is not to take it personally, I recently found out it was the fear of hitting the baby. And the weirdness of it all freaked him out completely. And you will be suprised my LO is just over 3 months and things have returned to normal if not better than before. I know how exhausting having a new baby is, but you will be suprised that having abit of mommy daddy time can be a real stress reliever. I find the best time is during a midmorning nap.
