Sexual drive during pregnancy

Hi mommas! Just wondering if anyone is on the same boat as me during this pregnancy. I heard its normal to have high sex drive during 2nd tri but my husband and i only manage todo it once bcs the gyne actually told us to avoid sex as during our 20w scan my placenta was vr low. But now that its all in the clear & im in my 3rd tri and i feel like we havent had sex in so long but i dont have the energy/drive for it anymore and my vagina always feels sore and swollen. I feel so sad for my current non-existing sex life :’) Pls tell me im not alone. Honestly have no idea how people still have sex super close to their due date eventho its supposedly ‘good’ and ‘helps you naturally induce’

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 (:
