A friend asked me this yesterday...my response was NO!
Does pregnancy make you feel sexy?
-
heck no!
-
Absolutely not.
My skin has been a terrible mess the whole time. It's finally starting to clear up a little. We went to a Christmas party on Saturday night and I told DH it was the first time I'd felt pretty since July.
-
NOPE!! Pregnancy makes me feel pregnant, fat, huge, achy and tired. Sexy is none of those things! lol!
-
Not even a little bit!!!!!
-
No no no.
I liked having bigger boobs and being bigger than my usualy skinny self but still the pregnancy itself didnt make me feel sexy -
i don't feel sexy, but i like the way i look these days (34 weeks)--although not so much when i was feeling nauseated and had acne!
-
I wouldn't say it makes me feel sexy, but there is something sensual about it. That being said, my sex drive TANKED pretty much the second I got pregnant, so even though I feel good about myself, I have zero interest in sex.
-
Yes! I was super comfortable with my body when I was pregnant and my DH told me I was beautiful and sexy all the time. He's kind of obsessed with me...hahaha.
-
no, it absolutely did not!
-
Er, not yet! I've got a broken out face, greasy hair, a not-quite-baby-bump, and my sex drive is about 10% of what it used to be. Sexy, I am not. Tell that to my husband though, he's all bananas over pregnant me
-
Definitely not, or not yet, at least. Only 7 weeks, but I've been varying degrees of nauseous for a week, plus super tired, and since I've been eating so much to keep the nausea at bay, I've already gained 5 pounds of pudge around the middle. So... no, I do not feel sexy. I'm hoping that could change come second trimester?
And like @littlebug: my sex drive is pretty much zero since I got my BFP. I guess my body is like, yeah, we got what we needed from that, moving on... -
Absolutely not! Gross, jiggly, smelly, sick, exhausted, and pimply, yes. Sexy, no.
-
No, I feel so gross!
-
I didn't gain until after 30 weeks, so I totally did until then! aside from the constant throwing up..that's not so sexy.
-
I started laughing when I read the title to this post, so clearly I do not. On a normal day, I don't feel unattractive, though, so I guess that's something!
-
No way jose. I feel gross!
-
I feel beautiful and confident in my body, but do not feel sexy. My libido has been in the dumps lately.
-
During the first trimester, my answer would be a big NO, but now that I am feeling better, starting to look pregnant and have more energy I would say yes!
-
I feel cute, but not sexy! (we always end up laughing uncontrollably at some point when we try to have sex these days because things are difficult and sometimes don't work)
-
I felt cute but never sexy! Especially the last few weeks.....Dr said H's head was low, and DH basically gave up on the whole idea after that. Weirded him out that her head was not far from his junk. And I felt so huge and exhausted, sex was the last thing I honestly wanted to partake in
@tororojo: ditto on finding sex hilarious! We'd try to ignore our child in between us and then she'd start hiccuping or kicking him and we could not get past it! We'd bust out laughing! And sex would not happen!
-
I am at a sweet spot at 16 weeks--no longer feel bloaty or sick or tired (for the most part). I normally have a small chest and the girls have gotten a nice lift, which DH is VERY interested in...so through his eyes I feel very sexy...on my own, not really.
-
Heck no. With all the nausea, heartburn, gas, swelling....who can feel sexy?
-
@tororojo: Haha oh yeah we had quite an amusing session the other day...
I'm kind of finding my torso to be sexy, but legs/butt/mini double chin, not so much. Overall, I feel pretty uncomfortable but I'm doing my best to embrace the changes. Although I'm really excited to get back into shape after she's born.
-
I think I might be one of the only ones who absolutely feels sexier pregnant! I've had a pretty rough pregnancy between pains, complications, and the nausea, so I haven't enjoyed it very much. The only thing I've really enjoyed is the way I look -- I've never felt more beautiful, sensual, attractive, and confident! I feel so womanly and beautiful. I feel totally comfortable in my naked body right now.
-
@photojane: yay!
-
I did feel so beautiful and sexy. My husband was pretty excited about it too. I've never felt so comfortable in my own skin as I did then.
-
Not sexy! But thankfully I don't feel like a troll, either.
-
I feel beautiful...sexier though? Not so much. Though my husband seems to be really into it. I feel too bulky and awkward to feel "sexy."
@tororojo: @PrincessBaby: I was dying laughing the last time we had sex too. I couldn't stop.
-
I don't feel gross, but I don't feel sexy either. I feel - round.
-
Nope, I felt gross.
I thought I looked pretty cute but still felt gross... does that make sense? -
Not even a little bit! NOPE!!
-
@tororojo, @PrincessBaby, @dagret: so funny! i'm actually enjoying sex more! it's more complicated, but once we get in the groove, i definitely enjoy it. it's weird because i've been having terrible pubic/pelvic pain, but for whatever reason while we're sexing, the pain goes away!
-
@photojane: Everything is so swollen down there that it feels super-uncomfortable for me. We wouldn't even be able to do it without...electronic assistance...which distracts from the OUCH sensation.
-
I felt gorgeous and confident. But not really sexy. The sex was good when I managed to get myself in the mood, but that was rare, and got less and less frequent the bigger I got (even as my confidence stayed high). DH was still super attracted to me, though.
-
No, I loved how my body looked with the bump, but the nausea and heartburn made me feel miserable!
-
@dagret: how far along are you?
-
@rachiecakes: Sometimes I feel the same way. Lol
-
@autumnlove: like I feel like my bump looked cute and I loved my maternity outfits but I always felt like I had a stuffy nose, I was always crampy/BH's, I was exhausted and swollen. Definitely not in the mood for anything but sleep.
-
It's not terrible right now, but my husband is really good at telling me I'm beautiful and sexy. He also finds preggo's pretty attractive so I won't have any problems there! At least I know he'll think I'm hot.
