so my fience` is one of those guys who shows love and appreciation through sexual attention. in addition with giving it, naturally this is how he thinks it should be received.
The problem is my hormones are out of whack and i am not that interested it sex at the moment. So how can i fix that?
 
oh i felt the same way, i didn't even want to go near him thinking he'd wanna do something. lol. but when hes not here i want him, i guess it's our hormones and the way we feel. I don't feel this way when not pregnant, so it's something to do with the way we feel when we are pregnant. It'll go away and it'll come back for sure, but as of now, sometimes i just gotta make myself cause i just don't even feel in the mood.
 
All I can say, is your sex drive may even get lower as you get farther along. I am 32 weeks with my 2nd and sadly my husband and I have not had sex in like a couple months.. Its hard when in my case we have a 2 year old, and the fact that i feel huge and not very sexy. Also my husband and i feel kinda weirded out about having sex at this stage because the baby is so big, and it really doesn't make things that comfortable. I look forward to getting things back to normal after delivery. Good Luck
 
It's like eating a big meal then expecting to be hungry half an hour later. It's just no going to happen.
 
I went through the same thing and am still because I am on birth control and it makes me have a low sex drive. Well if you are having any pain during inter course this can make you not wan to have sex also the fear that you may hurt the baby is also another way. Maybe you want to have affection in other ways and if he seems to be too pushy then it might turn you off. Why don't you try to spice things up by maybe buying a new sexy outfit and some new sex toys or if you aren't into that watch a good movie that might put you in the mood. Also find out what really turns you on tow ant to have sex and have him do those things. I know that when my husband kisses my neck it turns me on and almost always makes me in the mood. Well good luck hun and congrats on the little one!
 
During pregnancy, your hormones are going to fluctuate more than you have ever known. This is bound to affect your sex drive. Maybe you could try to explain that to your fiance so he doesn't take it personally. It's a physical thing; it has nothing to do with whether you are attracted to or love him. It may help to know there might be other times during your pregnancy when you just can't get enough sex! Pregnancy puts your body on a hormonal roller coaster!
