No Libido

I'm eight weeks along & the fact that we actually conceived is still amazing to me. My husband & I were just married in June & I thought for sure with his low testosterone it would take years. We're both very happy to have this baby, but the thought of sex with my husband is quite frankly a bit repulsive now. Anyone feel like this? Any insight? We've been together four years and the sex has always been absolutely mediocre...he's just so damn nice and loves me so much...now I'm questioning my love.

Wow. I feel like the off ball out here because I'm eight weeks as well and it's actually the reverse for my boyfriend and I. I want to have sex so bad and he wants nothing to do with it. We had an AMAZING sex life prior to this and it makes me feel unwanted.

I know the feeling @Dest11 my bf wants to have sex twice a day but I am not in the mood like I use to but I do try to compromise 1day on for 2 to 3 days off and it usually works lol sometimes.

Yea, no worries as long as u knowbu love him thennthats all that should matter.  He obviously married u because he loves u as well.  I haven't had sex with my hubby since the night we conceived around 15 weeks ago.  I think about sex and I'm just not in the mood and my hubby is okay withr that as well due to his low libido as well.  We still love each other and appreciate each other.  hope that helps..

Mt husband and I were lucky to have sex once a month before surprise baby 3. Now I don't have any desire for sex. My husband is my best friend and the love of my life. Sex does not even factor into our relationship. It is a nice bonus and icing on the cake when we do.

pregnsncy really does chance things with desires and hormones...but if it has always been an issue  then you might want to talk to someone...it doesn't mean you don't love him as other issues can affect our sex drive or response.maybe after the baby you could have an honest talk and try done new things

I'm 29 weeks now and my hubby and I have only been intimate once since I got pregnant. I have no desire for it at all and he is ok with that

Thanks, it's nice to hear I'm not the only one. I absolutely agree, friendship should come first & I can't imagine my life without my husband! Sex can be changed, a person cannot!

It's all good, we have had sex maybe four times in 25 weeks.. Since falling pregnant I'm not interested! My husband is very supportive and the fact that we are not having sex is no big deal.. Once the baby is here I'm sure it will improve!! Sex is not the be all and end all of a relationship and I can not stand it when people try to tell you otherwise!!!!
