How to Cope with Low Libido During Pregnancy
During my first pregnancy, everyone warned me about the morning sickness and the moods swings and the lack of sleep but no one warn me that my libido is going to drop significantly. All I kept thinking about is what’s wrong with me. I didn’t talk to my husband about it at first. I just kind of kept it to myself. I talked to my doctor and I read a couple books. I really confined anything that was saying you’re going have a drop in libido.
Well, finally about the end of the second trimester, my husband could tell it was pretty harsh for me every time we go to bed. He finally said, “Well just tell me what’s wrong.” And I told him and we are able to do with that much better after that. We decided to take one night out of each week and make it just our night and we would do anything romantic. We would watch movies together, we would have a romantic dinner, we would try taking a nice bubble bath together, we tried everything. It was just wonderful having that romantic time with him and not have to worry about what was going to happen.
With our two-year-old, we’ve trying to send them off to one of our parent’s house. Just spend the night once every other week to at least try twice a month and that’s when we make our night and my favorite thing to do that usually is my husband’s favorite also is during your pregnancy in body aches and your skin is dry so we brought out lotion he’ll give me massages with lotion and it’s very sensual for both of us and really enjoy it. And now I definitely say talk about it with your husband. That is the biggest and most important thing to do and then talk about it that much during first half of my first pregnancy but once we talked about it, I realized that anything can be solve by talking about it.
I just entered the second trimester of this pregnancy. For most women, their libido goes up during the second trimester and then back down during third. But for me that wasn’t the case last time. It doesn’t seem to be the case this time. We are still hoping for the best since I’ve only been in the second trimester for one week but if it doesn’t happen for us this time, we’re just going to keep on dealing it like we have in the past and trying our best to get through it. We know that that it will work out fine then after it’s over, everything would just be back to normal for us.
