Maintaining A Strong Sexual Relationship During Pregnancy

[Wickid Cherry Pie]

I would like to hear some responses from other women on the board regarding how they maintained their sense of sexuality during pregnancy. I know that provided there are no complications, intercourse is safe throughout pregnancy, but let's face it there are times when you simply don't feel sexy. How do/did you get in the mood?
Also, for the men who have experienced being with an expectant partner, did you find her more attractive? Less attractive?

I find my wife very attractive during pregnancy. I don’t know if I would say she is more attractive, but she is definitely not less attractive, II would say she is differently attractive. I find there is something incredibly hot about my wife being pregnant.

We are 30 weeks into our second pregnancy. During her two pregnancies we have hope for her to get bigger boobs, and to have an increase in sex drive. Her breasts have stayed the same, and her sex drive has been way down, during both

The few times she is in the mood it is great sex, and she usually likes to watch a porn video to get her hotter.

It is a bit frustrating to find her so hot, and her not want sex. However, it is worth it to have a child.

Been there, done that (x4)

Every woman is different, and every pregnancy is different. When we're at the mercy of our hormones and the drastic changes that our bodies are going through, it can be difficult for everyone involved.

During my last two pregnancies, my sex drive was pretty high. During my first two pregnancies, however, this wasn't always the case. Even if I didn't have much of a sex drive, it didn't stop me from giving hand jobs or blow jobs. Of course, morning sickness and general fatigue can make doing even that somewhat trying at times.

Hey Wicked Cherry Pie,

Three words for you, hormones, hormones, hormones. They will rule your life and your significant others as well.

In my experience (1 child so far) there were periods of very little sex drive on her part and other periods that I remeber very fondly. During the second trimester she became a real sex fiend and wanted sex everyday. So things can be good.

I always found her very attractive during pregnancy and occasionally find myself looking at pregnancy porn which I never would have done before her pregnancy.

Good luck with it, the results are amazing.

Oh! one more thing. The Titty Fairy came to our house one night. It was amazing. The problem was I was like a kid in "Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory" I could look but not touch! *grrr*.

My wife usually still allows me to touch and suck her breasts, and actually enjoys that. While not as good as sex, sucking her tits while she gives me a hand-job is nice.

I wonder if we could write the Titty Fairy and have her visit our house?

Speaking of the Titty Fairy, I think she and I are well acquainted.
Which brings up another issue for those who have responded to this thread, what are your views on lactation? Is that a turn-on as well?
I was viewing some pregnancy porn last night and noticed that is a fetish for some.

My youngest daughter is going to be two in a month and I still produce a little bit of milk, she was weaned at about 14 months (earlier than I had hoped)

except for in the very late stages of pregnancy or early stages of nursing do I believe that there is any worry of milk flow during sex. Unless they are being stimulated for a long time that way or in a certain way to get the milk flowing I never had a problem with it.

When I met my husband my daughter was 13 months and only nursing around bed times and once or twice through out the day, the milk took a little bit to get going. Also when a baby nurses they stimulate the areola which pushing the milk out the nipple not just nipple stimulation.

As for the taste, I don't see why anyone would have a problem with it, to me personally it tastes like a thinner version of cows milk with a LOT of sugar in it (think the milk left in the bottom of the bowl after a sugary cereal but thinner) It tastes NOTHING like the formula *cough*crap*cough* that companies sell.

anyway.. thats just my input on the whole lactation thing.

I found that I had a higher sex drive during my second pregnancy in the second trimester, first trimester my sex drive was down and third it was about the same as always.
I don't remember my first pregnancy very well.

I breast feeded my both daughters till they were about 2 and it was a bit of a problem if I had sex when it was near the nursing time. Milk would start to simply pour from my breasts.
But I had too much of it really...... enough to feed twins or even triplets with my second daughter...... pitty I had to throw it away.

As for sex, my both pregnancies were complicated and I was strictly forbidden to have sex. So I didnt even dare to think of it
