sex ??

My poor husband is so sexually deprived its awful..I'm 36 weeks and I have been so exhausted with a capital E this whole pregnancy..I have given him what I can when I can but it has been a good couple of months since we have done ANYTHING..he says he understands and he's been so amazing taking care of me the whole time..but I know he's so sexually frustrated and I feel awful

I guess I'm just wondering what can I do to have enough energy to give him some..he works all night and sleeps all day so I can't really get anything going until the weekend but I desperately need suggestions of how I can muster up enough energy to entertain him for a little while.

personally, since you are wanting to, i would just start no matter how tired i was. i find that even when i'm super tired and he gets me all worked up i muster the energy and have a great time, no matter how tired i was to begin with.  doing it just after you wake up is also a great idea. you are going to be tired for a long time anyway so might as well get comfortable functioning with little energy now.  
best of luck!

Parkersmommy I am so with you. I asked him if it was cause i'm fat. We are unsecure enough being pregnant without a man not wanting you. Lol. He tells me I am perfect that he is just worn out.  Then when he does want it i've had a long day and am too worn out. It has been very frustrating. But it's amazing when we both find the time for each other.

Hey ... I'm 33w 4d
...I have back and rib pain only when I stand for a long time...so
By the time my husband gets home from work I feel tired...And don't feel like doing much...
..I don't feel comfortable with him on top....My belly always get in the way...so the only ways is me doing all the work.   My husband won't take no for an answer he don't force me but he keeps insisting by hugging, kissing, and cuddling untill I give in... Don't have any pain during or after sex... I just need to get in the mood because I don't feel attractive now that I'm pregnant... =( lol
Sex is great stress reliever specially when your pregnant..
I highly recommend sex... For depression, anxiety, and stress...lol

I've been having probs with fatigue this pregnancy too. I hate to say it but my sex drive has dropped to almost nothing the past couple months. But I know he has needs as well as I do, so I let him do his thing and put on a show for him if I'm really not in the mood. Also, I'm sorry if this is TMI for y'all, and I dunno what type of intimate relationship you and your guy have, but if I'm absolutely just way too tired to do anything for him- you can always just strip down and lay there for him while he fixes himself. At least he's not sneaking and fixing himself to porn- y'know? I'll do that for my husband sometimes. Gives him something to look at n grab n it saves me from having to do anything. lol. Some people use pornographic films to get things going. Dunno if that's an option for you- I'm pretty open to stuff so I guess it wouldn't bother me. My husband knows how to push my buttons though so 75% of the time he knows how to get me to play along. lol. I know a little oral on me gets me in the mood pretty fast- so tell your man he needs to give a little to get a little. lol

Last time me and my fiance tried to have sex, well it's more him rubbing himself on me because it's too painful for actual sex, the baby would not stop moving at all. I swear it was like she was saying "get off my mommy!!". I couldn't help but laugh about it lol. Your comment made me think of that and I felt like I needed to share lol.
