Feeling so deflated
Currently 18w pregnant and we also have a 15m old. My husband just doesn’t seem interested in having sex and it’s such a deflating feeling and it is making me question everything in terms of why. Anyone currently in the same boat or have advice from previously being in this situation!?

@Michelle I guess hormones and how we feel definitely play a part, but this was already and issue and it’s worse now. I don’t think it’s about pregnancy and risks, as we aren’t high risk. I hope you feel better soon
Ohhhhh ok! I didn’t realise this was an issue leading up to pregnancy! How old is he? Maybe his libido is super low and getting blood test could check different levels that could be affecting this?
He is 41, but I don’t think it’s a dysfunctional thing. I think maybe depression, as we had a late loss quite early in our marriage
I’m sorry to hear that. I def think it could be depression related then. Hopefully he can go to Dr and have a chat.

All I can say is wow. I’m too sick or in pain for sex and my husband does want it so I have to keep pushing him away and then he feels rejected. Not the same but interesting how some pregnant women do want sex and others it’s the last thing they want. Could he be nervous about having sex whilst pregnant? Worried about hurting the baby??
