Twice, since my BFP. I think once or twice in August, while we were doing IUI. So, four times max since August, and twice in the last six months. ?
I'm not sure how to feel about this...
I think my H finds me "attractive" in many ways, but I don't think he is super (at all) interested in sex w me right now. I'm fine with it, but am worried we will never do it again.

I was supposed to have sex when I was pregnant?
Girl please.
I have had more sex since being cleared at 6 weeks pp until now (10.5 wks pp) than I did my entire pregnancy. LOL. DH is a patient, non-demanding person in this department. Thank goodness. I just pleased him in other ways.

I actually had a higher sex drive when pregnant than before. I had been on BCP for years before, which basically killed my drive. Then when off it was scheduled TTC sex, which was not as fun as spontaneous sex. During pregnancy it was once a week or so and it was good, especially during second tri. My H was a little hesitant at times, but I just reminded him that baby was in the dark and well cushioned, so was fine, lol.
Now that I'm postpartum, I'm still sexually attracted to H but would of course not do anything until cleared by my OB. I have 2 second degree tears with stitches, so the thought of postpartum sex is actually scaring me to death.
We haven't since the second tri, and then it was not very frequent. Combination of me not feeling good and he is a little freaked out by pregnant sex so he hasn't even tried. I feel little bit like a failure as a wife not having sex, despite that. I think about initiating it and then it doesn't appeal to me at all so I just forget about it.
We have a pretty good spells and then it will be a week with nothing. I don't blame the pregnancy so much as having two other kids. Second tri is generally the time I like doing it the most. Third tri is when the finding a good position is sometimes a hinderance. I am generally ready all the time once I am out of first tri exhaustion. Post baby is always the pits and that keeps me motivated to give it a go even when I may be a little tired. Waiting to be cleared seems like eons and then I get all nervous to have any action in that region.
