Married, Pregnant, just too tired for sex right now

by Aimee
(Arizona)

I have only been married a little over 2 years and already we are in a slump. We have a 2 yr old and a baby on the way, I am 7 months pregnant right now. After working all day and taking care of our toddler at night, for me there is no time for sex. I can't even put together the energy for a quickie, which my husband is practically begging me for at this point. I feel so guilty for making my husband wait for the right time, but I also don't want to feel obligated or pressured to do it. It has been 2 1/2 weeks, normally we have sex once a week or once every 2. The bottom line is that our sex drives are just not the same. Should I be giving my husband more, and I being selfish?

Selfish?
by: Anonymous

My wife is also pregnant it`s our first and we` ve been married 4 1/2 months, she too rarely feels in the intimate mood to pleasure me. It gets frustrating as a man not to receive those pleasure he once felt like he was getting regularly. Your question is are u being selfish, I say no because sometimes you just can`t get the energy and you would not want to just do it then you may get a bad experience from that episode and it could potentially interfere everytime afterwards because you only did it that time to satisfy but you were not really feeling it. So, no I don`t think you are being selfish, but just don`t shut him out completely in that category.
