Sex was amazing for me during my first and second pregnancies but during my third I totally hated being touched in any way! I suppose its different for every pregnancy!”

My partner is 36 weeks pregnant and we have had a brilliant sex life throughout the whole pregnancy. The first trimester was probably the least active, hormones raging plus lots of other things going on, but once that had passed, it just got better and better. I have to say that both our orgasms have been incredible and we have found the whole pregnancy experience to be a sensual one.
If your man has problems with the situation, I think that the best thing to do is to talk about it. Try and reassure him that you are still the same person, that you won't hurt the baby (actually orgasm is good for everyone - mum, dad and baby) and that whatever he is feeling is normal. Personally I find my partner more and more attractive each day as the growing of her tummy symbolises something much more than just a "bump".
Keep talking, have fun and enjoy each other. You won't regret it! :-)”

I feel like a bit of a freak after watching these videos as my husband and I didn't have sex at all during my first pregnancy. I felt horribly ill for the first 6 months and then I just felt too big and uncomfortable, oh and tired! I'm currently pregnant again and although I am still in the really sick phase I do hope that we might be able to resume our sex life once I'm feeling less ill. Does anyone else have a similar experience?”

My partner and I have been watching the program and have found it very interesting. I must say the website is great, I am 17 weeks pregnant and i am finding it very difficult with my partner at the moment as i am still keen to have a good active sex life but my partner does not want any at all due to his fear of harming the baby. this had the knock on effect on my body confidence and emotional state and our relationship. I feel he does not like my body anymore. Help... Do all males feel like this! I do not no what to do. any advice kindly taken. Thanks”
