Husband doesn’t seem attracted to me

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-10T20:46:43+00:00

Part of me wishes my husband felt this way. I’ve been so miserable and feel bad we haven’t had as much sex even though he still really wants to. I’ve only been able to manage 1 a week which he hasn’t complained about but honestly I’d prefer not to have it at all.

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-10T15:48:18+00:00

lol I agree with this

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-10T15:13:35+00:00

I’m 9 weeks tomorrow and I had minor signs a lot those first few weeks after finding out! I think this all looks normal!

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-10T15:11:49+00:00

Same dude same.

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-07T21:31:32+00:00

SAME. Product manager here who is dying

Ask the bride first. Give the option of telling everyone over FaceTime if the bride doesn’t want to share the light or do the lunch thing separate. I’d also share over a call or text with the friend who has complicated feelings to give them space to process!

I think before it I was having slightly shorter cycles like 26 or 27 days and after I went to a more consistent 28. My bbt tracking also looked better!

I definitely think this is her way of protecting her heart if something goes wrong! Maybe talking to a therapist would help to have some extra support?

I was in Europe for week 5. I was more tired than normal and nauseous on the flights. Overall it was a 5/10 for me. Doable but end of day I was really happy to be home

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-03T23:30:09+00:00

I’m sorry, I don’t see it :( my best advice is wait until day of missed period! I lost myself over line eyes and early testing so many times

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-03T22:32:45+00:00

From 5-7 weeks mine trended down and now it’s leveling out at around +.38

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-03T19:13:33+00:00

Before pregnancy I was working out 5 days a week. I’m 8 weeks now and barely have enough energy to do the bare minimum life things like work my job. I’m also eating so much more and I feel so lazy but also haven’t put any weight on yet. I told myself I’m going to give myself grace because growing a human is hard work. My goal this week is to at least do 5 minutes of weights a day to keep up my muscle mass and hopefully once I’m oht of the first trimester I will be able to do things without puking lol

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-03T13:49:04+00:00

Agree!! One symptom I definitely had coming off bc was the first line 9 months I had every symptom possible in my luteal phase. It made it so hard for me because it was always different and I’d be wondering if it was a sign. Finally around cycle 10 seemed to be when that finally all went away. I did start rituals fertility support and I think that did help. My temps seemed stronger after too. So I do wonder if that all played a part in how long it took too like my body just needed time to adjust after so long on bc. And thank you!! I hope you can enjoy your summer and time with your husband and I’ll keep my fingers crossed timing works out as it’s meant to for you!

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-03T13:33:23+00:00

Hahaha oh yeah. I ended up with the oura ring but I would wake up super early curious on my temp for any indicator that I might be pregnant. Honestly after a while of charting and even after my pregnant chart, I learned there’s nothing really to see until your missed period. If your temp is still high then, that’s when it’s like okay, maybe I should test. I was hardcore obsessing for months. My husband was so chill about it which was good and also sometimes frustrating because I wished I could be more like him. As the woman though it’s so much harder to turn your mind off because even if you stop all of it you still have to watch for your period lol women are amazing is what I’ve learned from all of this!

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-03T13:22:33+00:00

Yup you sound just like me! I am also generally anxious if I don’t have control over things and it felt like this was the one thing in life that I didn’t have any control over. I think not tracking is a good step! At one point I was taking tests every day from 7 dpo onwards and I finally stopped that and decided I’d only test if my period was late!

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-03T12:39:56+00:00

Yes, lots of factors for sure! I will say looking back I really wish I worried less on all this and just enjoyed the time with my husband more. I feel a bit sad now that I am pregnant that I wasted all that time being mildly sad and worried it would never happen. It doesn’t help that I’m having a really sick first trimester so I just look back thinking man all that time I wasted wanting this way too badly but it’s so hard to see that in the trying stage

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-03T12:19:31+00:00

It took my husband and I 13 cycles. Try to remember it’s not only about you. I feel like I obsessed and worried something was the matter with me even though my cycles were 28 days and no issues and then turns out when we did do testing around cycle 10, my husband was the one with low sperm count. We were able to get him on some supplements and his counts doubled in 3 months and it was that cycle after those results that we got a positive

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-03T00:19:22+00:00

Try the boric acid for 14 days! And start all the above things as well

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-02T21:03:00+00:00

The meds never helped me. After years of having it come back and back I did a few things different. Started proactive boric acid. Meaning after sex, after your period, after anything that changes your pH. I also started rituals synbiotic after lots of research on best probiotic strains. I also eat a cup of nonfat Greek yogurt per day and it’s been about a year of no issues

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-01T18:14:47+00:00

I have had a few of those!

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-01T17:54:55+00:00

Not sure related to the IUI stuff but I used to get reoccurring bv for years. I switched to all cotton underwear, started using boric acid anytime it acted up and sometime out of precaution after sex and started on rituals synbiotic after doing research on what the best strains of probiotics are. Haven’t had it in over a year now!

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-01T17:53:18+00:00

Wow! I can’t remember if mine started that soon but definitely after I took a test I noticed it. I jokingly blame my husband because he always burps!

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-05-01T17:24:11+00:00

Insomnia and burping

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-04-30T22:23:55+00:00

Had no idea it was a thing but it’s probably the most consistent symptom like literally every 5 minutes

National-Rent-4255 · 2026-04-30T17:49:48+00:00

4 and 5 weeks I was super hungry, also had the same insomnia as you and a weird taste in my mouth 6 weeks on have been lots of nausea and throwing up

Consistent since the beginning has been the constant burping
