I've noticed a significant change in my libido since becoming pregnant. How can I increase libido during pregnancy? My partner and I want to maintain intimacy.
My drive actually went up and down throughout the trimesters, which my doctor said is totally normal due to hormones. Don't force anything; just focus on massages and emotional bonding, and things will fall into place naturally.
Fatigue and low hormone levels, like thyroid issues, can heavily impact your energy and drive during pregnancy. If you are feeling constantly exhausted, do mention it to your doctor and get your routine thyroid levels checked regularly.
Arey, with the bloating, nausea, and feeling like a round potato, romance was the last thing on my mind! Just laugh it off with your partner, use lots of pillows for comfort, and don't put too much pressure on yourselves!
Please don't feel guilty about how you are feeling right now, your body is working so hard to grow a human! It is completely normal for your drive to drop. Just have open, loving conversations with your partner so they understand too.
When I was pregnant, I felt so disconnected from my body because of all the physical changes, and my drive was zero. But once we started focusing on simple cuddles and talking, I felt much more relaxed and connected with my husband.
