I kinda know how you feel sheza me and DH only did it for the first time since I was pregnant in the weekend! cause in the first trimester I didnt want to incase it caused bleeding like it can and I knew that after the mc that it would just freak me out! then after the scan DH was kinda weirded out about it all the thought of doing it with a little person just there! lol so I made us do it in the weekend as I couldnt go for the rest of the time without and told him it would get worse as time goes on (growing bump!) and I noticed too that it hurt a little wasnt majorly enjoyable and ive never normally had a problem so maybe it is just the body tensing up? as I think in the back of my head I was a little worried! DH of corse enjoyed it! im hoping the next time will be different.

All I can suggest is take it slow, real slow. If it hurts so down cuddle for a bit then carry on. Give your body time to sort itself out maybe.
It is weird having the baby right there and i think it just takes time to get used to the idea and relax.

I think you've hit the nail on the head, sounds like you are subconsciously (sp?) worried about baby and its causing you to tense up. Sounds like you have a great DP, so maybe discuss any fears you have with him (if you haven't already)? Umm more foreplay to relax you, or you don't have to have actual intercourse.
I found sex during the earlier part of pregnancy quite uncomfortable and have only started enjoying it again fairly recently, of course now I have a huge belly in the way lol. Anyway I hope you are able to work through it with your DP

Its getting to the point where im too scared and cant be bothered trying 
i think i'll give myself a little while and then try again, and try to relax more like everyone said.
Thanks for the replys

I agree with the others....take your time and find ways to relax...maybe even find ways to be intimate without actual intercourse...just kissing...cuddling...touching...use your imagination. 
I do remember sex being uncomfortable for me during pregnancy which is common so that won't be helping you either.

I agree with Paws, there's alot more to it than the actual deed. I've had three kids and each pregnancy it's been different. With Cooper, I couldn't stand DH being any where near down there! From memory I think we managed it twice and I hated it. I too was worried about the little man. I knew he wouldn't be harmed, but couldn't shake that feeling.
I suggest maybe you could have a nice shower and/or bath together and rediscover each other again, and just take it real slow... if you don't go all the way, that doesn't matter, at least you have had the time together, just touching. Good luck!

Shez mate, you're not the only one! :/ I too am having a MASSIVE problem with sex - and i feel stink talking to my midwife about it (mostly cuz the BF is always there)But seeing as you made a thread about it  I havent had sex in over 10 weeks, because it's so damned painful - no tensing or anything, it just hurts. Its like when er, he 'puts it in' shall we say, I get really bad pressure pain around the cervical area. And god help me if I actually manage to orgasm - I'd rather have my toenails ripped out with a pair of plyers. The horrid thing is, I feel like a blasted rabbit at the moment, and all I wanna do is him!!!! man, roll on when we get to make another one. Honestly, i'm going insane. But I really hope your problem goes away Sheza, I know there nothing worse than not being able to do it, and then feeling like less than a woman. The BF is great with me tho, 'you're cooking a baby, that's FAR more important!' hehe

Poor old Willie has been out of luck since I got pregnant, initially coz I was too sick and then coz I've had two prolonged episodes of bleeding we've been told no-go till after the 19 week scan. It actually doesn't worry either of us all that much tho, we didn't have sex the whole time I was pregnant with the gremlins coz I was too anxious, and the first time we BDed when I was preg with Maya I cried my eyes out coz I thought I'd killed my baby.

Thanks everyone Its nice to know im not the only one who gets like this. I really think a lot of it is to do with the fact i lost my last baby and even though i know my lil boy is fine im scared Im gonna hurt him or something(even though I know deep down im not going to).
It is nice to know that my DF is fine about it though, he said he wont do it if its sore for me, and that we dont have to have sex
I guess it just makes me you feel like a faliure as a women when you cant have sex with your man!

*hugs* Sheza I can definately empathise with you there, I have to remind myself to initiate special cuddles with the DH about once a fortnight at the moment but I'm sure if it wasnt so uncomfortable for me then I'd be up for it much more.
I do feel for the lad but he is very understanding and would never want me to carry on if it was hurting, he might get another type of 'treat' in the off week lol. Its not so much that it out right hurts but its just not comfortable and so I cant relax and therefore it never feels quite right. I hope it changes soon as its only going to happen less often when the baby is actually here for a little while

Its such a hard situation, Its nice your DF is so understanding.
I have been really slack latley, mainly because I am so exhausted and sex is the last thing I want to think about. I feel so bad though cos I know it would make DH so much happier if I put a little more attention in that area. Things had only just started getting better after the arrival of DD and then I get pregnant with No 2, I just doesnt seem fair on the guys.

omg this is happening to me 2! But I'm olny 9 1/2 weeks! At first I thought it was thrush or something but really not. My midwife said it just happens, which is nice to know that nothings actually wrong, but what does one do until everythings back to normal again, which I assume is a while after the baby's born.
Hey, when can you have sex after birth? (first time mum here)
