Sex life troubles?

My husband and I’s sex life has taken a serious toll in the last month. I’m currently almost 30 weeks and we haven’t had any sort of intimacy in almost 6 weeks when we used to at least 2-3 times a week. When I confronted him about it, he was honest and said he just hasn’t been as attracted to me since I got so much rounder. He claims it’s harder in certain positions and admitted my body has changed quite a bit. I’m hoping this will be resolved once I have the baby, but I’m worried. Anyone else experiencing something similar?

I am SO sorry you’re dealing with that. Pregnancy is already such a tough time with changing bodies and new insecurities. What your body is doing is amazing and beautiful though. ❤️

It’s very normal. My husband told me he just can’t do it, knowing there is a baby in the womb 😅
It’s a psychological thing. Everything will come back to how it used to be after you’ll give birth.

I guess this is normal for many fathers. Hormones change, so some react different than others.

Mine said he’s scared to have sex in third trimester cause I’m big and baby is big and doesn’t want to harm anything. Honestly I haven’t been feeling it anyways but sometimes I feel bad 😭 cause I can tell he wants to still.

Its more psychological for my man, that and he was on a new medication for a while that killed his sex drive. He's off it now and we've talked through it. It's way less than pre-pregnancy but it's something. I think as soon as babies out and I'm healed he'll be right back to his usual level. Hopefully not to result in baby two too quickly lol

Mama needs new friends ✨

Hey mamas 🤍 I'm going to be honest — I'm at a season in my life where I'm craving real, genuine friendship. The kind where we actually check on each other. Where conversations go both ways. Where we can laugh, vent, cry, and just *be* without it feeling one-sided.

I'm a stay at home mom of 6 (yes, 6! 👏🏼) and my days are full but my cup feels a little empty in the friendship department. I'm looking for women who get it — the chaos, the beauty, the exhaustion, all of it.

If you're a mom who values deep, reciprocal friendship and you're also out here looking for your people — drop a 👋 below. Let's actually get to know each other. 🤍

Really embarrassing!
I'm a first time mummy at 35, she's 16 month and everytime I sneeze or cough I lose control of my bladder and pee a little 😔, I've had countless utis since having her aswell! Will it get better? Or do I need to invest in panty liners? 😆

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Random but when you use a vibrator do you need to hold your lips open for it to touch the bean ?

It gets annoying because even if I open my legs I still need to hold the lips open to touch the bean and I have to do it the entire time my lips are literally sealed closed 🤣
