Intimacy is not just penetrative sex, so you can still keep your sex life active if you want to ;) For me, most days although I'm keen I just can't get into it and am dry as a bone no matter what we do, this was super discouraging to my partner and he started avoiding sex too. We had to learn that this is normal and just a biological change, getting a pregnancy safe water based lube helps.
Hello! You're definitely not alone. Currently coming to 22w and we haven't had sex since we found out. I also have low placenta at of last checkup so it's definitely out for now. Like what someone mentioned, intimacy is more than penetrative sex - as long as you two are on the same page ❤️we can try and get creative or just make time to spend time together 💕 take care!
Hey fellow mummy, I had the same issue as you too! Had bad morning sickness in the first tri, was hit with low placenta in the second tri and right now in my third tri (week 39 to be exact), the bump just gets in the way. So yeah guess it’s perfectly normal as long as your husband is understanding that is (:
I experienced the same. It was hard for me also to have sex in the third trimester because my vagina hurts. 😢 But yeah, we did try and enough lubrication don't feel painful anymore down there.
