Umm... can we talk about sex?

So, I almost don't want to write this, but I have to know if anyone else feels the same way.
I just do NOT like sex anymore. I'm not sure why in particular... my stomach makes it awkward, but I had no problems with sex during my boys' pregnancies. Something about it being twins is making a difference...
Also, it just feels... weird. Like, not the same, not as good... ?!
And, I HATE that after I have the big O, I get BH contractions... I know they are ok, but it makes me nervous.
If it were just me, I wouldn't have sex the rest of the pregnancy... but my poor husband. Every week or two, I say ok, but I never like it much. It's more of a very nice favor I do for him (he'd be so upset if he read this!).
Does any one else feel similar? Or, not... tell me you think I'm crazy, that's ok too. LOL

I am not having any sex at all! For one thing I can't since I have a low lying placenta and that's one of my restrictions. But even before that was diagnosed I had decided that I would not have any sex for the whole pregnancy because I've had two miscarriages and I'm not taking any chances this time. I know it sucks for my dh although so far he hasn't complained. I just keep reminding him that once it's all over it will be better because I'm having my tubes tied during the c-section so it will be better than ever! I feel like this is a sacrifice we both can make for our sweet babies. Plus I'm just not that interested to tell you the truth!!!!

Ummm....what's that. We are also not having sex. I had some spotting and a bleed early on so my DH is super paranoid. I had a really wierd feeling after O'ing once so no interest on my part either. My Dr. told me that it was off limits after 26 weeks anyways. Obviously not
I HATED sex during my twin pregnancy. It was uncomfortable, I was the size of Shamu, I couldn't O and if I actually did it was painful and led to more BH than usual. I was never put on pelvic rest but I put myself on it about 24 weeks into things. I just couldn't physically handle it. So different than with ODD, I wanted sex 24/7 with her.
I hate to admit it but I still don't have my drive back. But I am nursing the twins, so my hormones are out of wack still

Hey Guys
We put ourselves on pelvic rest after I had the beeding early on.
Ask me again, when the nausea stops, ok?
poor hubby though. he wants to worship the goddess & the goddess is like (GO AWAY!) yeah sucketh! for everyone. This too shall pass!
eventually, when they are, uh, older, yeah that's it, older.
THANK YOU... you all made me feel so much more normal. And I remember from my boys that AFTER they are born, sex will suck for awhile too. So, sex is probably going to be on the bottom of the list for quite some time, lol.
The odd thing is sometimes I feel like I want to do it, but then when I do, I regret it... kind of like being hungry, but every time you eat, you feel sick. But you still feel hungry!

my uterus was stretched so much more, it took longer for me to able to O normally. At least now it is back to normal. :-). My hormones aren't but my response is.
