It’s fine to have sex during pregnancy, but I must confess that when I’m pregnant, my husband and I stay off sex for I’m rarely horny.
And when I finally consent to do it, I just do, so he doesn’t become sex-starved for the whole 9 months of my pregnancy, for that will be plain mean. I know I’m not particularly sexy when I’m pregnant, I nag, get irritated and I throw up so you see there’s absolutely no room for sexiness.
If you are the husband and you are feeling hurt and unwanted, it’s not our fault, these are the reasons why we pregnant woman usually stay off sex while we are pregnant;
1. Arrgh! You smell
Not that you particularly stink, it’s just that, when we are pregnant, we have a very big nose that sniffs anything a mile away including the garlic in the food you ate some days ago. Your shoes and socks stink too, and even though you have your bathe regularly, you still smell a tiny bit.
2. Our flexibility is gone
Even if we were the type that was always game when it comes to new positions, this time, it’s different. we just aren’t flexible during pregnancy, and what do you expect? We are carrying a baby! We are sluggish, we are hard and we are easily tired. Thinking of new sex styles? New sex style, fire!
3. I’m sleeping, don’t wake me
I was once a night owl, cleaning, cooking and doing chores late into the night as long as there’s light, but when I’m pregnant, I sleep-work, so you might actually meet me sitting in front of the TV with my hands set to press play and I’ll sleep off. Just remove the remote and help me sleep conveniently, don’t wake me. Most of us are like this during pregnancy, word of advise husband, if you meet us sound asleep with our back to you, sleep too. It’s not easy carrying a baby.
4. Oops! We’ve got company!
Sex is a private affair and we’d like so much if you don’t make it public, we’ve got company dear! And who is that? You ask? Our baby of course, who knows, you might actually be pushing a body part of baby while thrusting in and out. Besides, the last thing we want is to expose our child to sex, without proper sex education, yes?
5. We don’t want you to see the stretch marks
Stretch mark is certainly one of the things that come with pregnancy and although not all of us feel self-conscious about that, but some do. I love my body and when I’m pregnant, I don’t want you to see the stretch marks in all the places you like. To cut the long story short, we don’t feel beautiful at this time, so stay away until further notice dear.
Here are the reasons why pregnant women don’t want to have sex during pregnancy. And even though sex during pregnancy is encouraged by experts if you follow a some rules and your doctor didn’t say otherwise, some women are just not up to sex during pregnancy.
And I must say that, it’s when some women are pregnant that they want to have more sex, so we are all different.
