Totally agree...I think our best sex was the first time after ds was born, if you can believe that. (Granted, we waited two months!) I was kind of scared, but dh was so considerate...it turned out to be the best ever!

Oh my would I have been upset if my DH said that to me...I mean steaming Is your DH receptive to you telling him when he says something that hurt your feelings? If so, I'd say something like, I know that it takes more effort on your part right now, but I need to you to understand that I'm not trying to put that on you and need some more compassion that it's harder for me right now.

I'm 38w3d and I feel like a whale, it's hard to move around and get up on my own, tired all the time, etc and any comments can just shoot me through the roof- gotta love the hormones, huh?

However, Last week I had to reassure DH that it's okay to have sex- he was scared that the baby would come right away and isn't feeling ready. We did it this morning but I didn't tell him I secretly desired to get the baby moving along. The best part is that he was so love-y and wanted to make sure we'd have snuggle time so went into work late. I love it when he's like that...makes me want to do it more- even if I feel like a distressed cow right now!

I stalked DH my entire pregnancy for sex so he was the one that wasn't putting as much effort into it as I wanted. We did end up laughing alot at the end though because it took all I could to even move around. I was like a beached whale.

I'm with Zan my DH is particularly kind/sweet about sex when I'm pregnant. He's always seeking to make things comfortable for us (me and babe) and making sure that I'm having a good time.

My smart alecy (is that a word) self would have probably come back with 'well you weren't that great either' any way I would say something to him.

That's really funny. I start to feel guilty later on in pregnancy for not being able to move around very much. My husband has never said anything, though, but I always wonder if he's thinking it.

I am in my 26th week and already dilating and having contractions. So, sadly no sex.

holy crap i would have laughed soo hard...seriously, at 37 weeks there is really only a few choice positions that still work and the feeling of having to pee becomes overwhelming if it takes too long i'd just remind him that the little guy should be there in a couple weeks and it'll get better

then i would have probably been a bit ticked if he was seriouse, then i would go back to laughing b/c he was serious...lol..darn pregnancy hormones

My DH is usually pretty receptive to my feelings, but once in a while he will make some man comment, and just not be able to understand why it upset me. I guess it's a guy thing right?

Like back when we first started dating, we were out at a nice restaraunt and he said "don't you need to go brush your hair?" He just couldn't understand why saying that to a woman was a really dumb idea, until after I explained it to him a few times .

I'm sure I'm not the only one with a DH that is like this though... it seems they all have their little moments of incredible ingorance/selfishness/being a guy.

The whole sex thing was definatly one of those moments. And I feel kind of bad because I know that he has been feeling really down for the last few days, having a hard time at work, alergies, arguing with my MIL and is scared and worried about being a new dad. So when he couldn't even be satisfied during sex, it kind of set him off. He said he was feeling really "unwanted" at the time

I'm hoping that once the baby comes everything will be okay for him. It probably will right?
