Sex drive just low…

I wish my husband would stop taking about sex I have no desire. I’m 20 weeks pregnant and sex just isn’t on my mind. I’ve voiced it many times, but I’m at that weird spot where sex is just not interesting or desirable. I know it’s been a month or a little over. But, does anyone else get tired of being bothered by sex. I mean after the baby I won’t probably feel like it neither for a while. But, when it comes back it comes back…. But, the sex thing is beyond me… does anyone else go through the limbo sex drive and husband still so persistent.

Your husband should be supportive of what you are experiencing in your pregnancy. Also, sex is not owed to husband/wife. If you already voices you not willing to think about it now he should respect that. If he has needs he can masturbate until you feel ready. No one should ever push her/his partner to have sex

Pregnancy can definitely lower your sex drive so I get it, but when I’m not in the mood and I feel like it’s been awhile then I will still take care of him you know what I mean. Intimacy is still important. Personally I wouldn’t be okay with my husband not having sex with me for who knows how long but that’s just me.

Libido

Almost 6 months pp and no sex drive whatsoever ...
Has anybody been to the GP? Perhaps there's something they can prescribe ? Not sure if that can work with breastfeeding ...

To play or not to play?!

My “ex” and I ended things in March (still fresh). I have been mentally done since January.
He doesn’t seem to register this - we still live together until our tenancy ends this month. Still calling me “babe”; still “unsure” why I want to co-parent. Still sees a future.

Yesterday he complained I was “starving him of sex” - we haven’t had sex since January because I just haven’t wanted him or the relationship hence detaching sexually. I also feel sex is how he keeps me hooked in the chaos (because we enjoy each other when we do).
He says we can repair and still be having sex.

Anyway it got hot and heavy last night and we almost did.
I felt like it was a moment of weakness to almost give in to him; however I now can’t stop thinking about it and want it.

Do I just give in as we’re about to move out?
Or
Hold my stance and maintain that I don’t want to go there with him?!

Yea I’m done with this app

It’s too much “I want ____” and when it’s time to show for it, it’s something else. I’m good… once I delete this app, it’s for good !

If you’ve successfully made mom friends, do you SAH, work in office, or work from home?

Being productive as a mom

Hey mama 💛

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how to be more productive and also find ways to make money from home, especially as a single mom. I know we’re all trying to balance so much, and I really admire how other moms manage it.

I wanted to reach out and ask — what do you do to stay productive? Have you found any ways to earn from home that actually work? Even small ideas or things you’ve tried.

Also, I was wondering… would you ever be open to brainstorming together? Like maybe we could come up with a small business idea or something we can build little by little from home.

I feel like together it could be easier, more motivating, and even fun. No pressure at all — I’d just really love to hear your thoughts and experiences 💭✨
