Husband lost interest in sex?
Anyone else dealing with this? Does it get better after pregnancy? It’s hard for me to not be in my head about it. We are expecting our first child. We used to have an amazing sex life, but as soon as I got pregnant, my partner lost interest. We’ve only had awkward sex or failed sex this whole time. Yesterday, we got married and I thought the excitement of that might lead to things happening, but he still is not interested. We tried and he wasn’t able to. Then he initiated again and still wasn’t able to. I tried not to show I was upset but it lead me to cry, and now I’m afraid that made it even worse. This is effecting my self esteem really badly. I feel unattractive and like he doesn’t see me the way he used to anymore.
Actually I have felt lonely in general. He’s
busy with work a lot. And he said he would make time for our elopement to feel special, but he ended up working all evening after we eloped and read each other vows. Then the next day, it was just like a regular Tuesday, not like we had just gotten married. I wanted to wait to get married until things felt more romantic, but he wanted the baby to have his last name and I wanted the baby to have both our last names if we weren’t married (but I agreed we could change our son’s name once we married).
Would anyone else be upset/sad about not even having sex after getting married? I’m honestly sad about it, and it makes me feel shame for feeling this way
