My wife is pregnant, she's 5 weeks pregnant. She has been to the doctor and the doctor said everything was fine, and gave her some vitamins and supplements. Doctor also said is perfectly safe to have sex. Why does she not wanna have sex though, everytime i ask she makes up an excuse like her head hurts, her stomach hurts, she is tired. But before i ask her, she seems fine, she's not complaining about anything, she might even be on the phone with her mom laughing. The minute i ask her, she's suddenly in pain or tired. Why is that? What's the matter with her?

She may not be in the mood right now. That will change. She is "newly" pregnant - can feel good and bad (emotionally and physically) from one second to the next. Don't worry - the mood will return and it won't be long. Women actually sometimes get more excited during pregnancy - not necessarily in the very beginning though. Just be patient a little more. It's normal.

Probably now not. For a couple of factors: She's on her interval, which means that she is dropping the uterine lining, after her frame (on this case, the hormones from the capsule) has signaled that the egg was once now not fertilized. Since she's on her interval, the drift would act as a barrier to the sperm, stopping it from coming into the uterus. There is a small risk that a few received by way of, however it is a rather small risk. Plus, if it is her traditional day, the contraceptive would nonetheless be in final result, being that she took it the earlier day. If I had been her, I'd wait till the day earlier than she starts taking the capsule once more and take a primary reaction being pregnant experiment. (Taking the capsule at the same time pregnant would significantly damage the fetus)

Let me let you in on a little secret...sometimes pregnant women don't want to have sex.

She may really be sick or tired. She's 5 weeks...so it stands to reason those things may be for real. A lot of women just don't want sex while they're pregnant. Personally, I couldn't care less if I had sex right now. I just don't want it. And sex is not that comfortable while pregnant, let me tell you.

It's not you, so just give her some space. And honey, get used to it because it's gonna be a looong time before she might be ready. I'm talking a long time AFTER the baby is born.

When a woman gets pregnant, the first weeks are really significant for her, she gets many confusing feelings, quations about herself, about the upcoming baby, maybe about you also. Making up reason is a way not to have to talk about how she feels, cause maybe she's just scared to talk about some things. There's no woman more unsafe than a pregnant woman believe me :) I know it must be difficult for you not having sex, as sex is way to get closer and everything but for the moment, I guess she just needs reinsurance about everything. Buy books about pregnancy and be interested, try to follow the pregnancy as if you were the one pregnant and don't forget that not only her body is changing, but she is also turning point from a woman to mother. She's in the "will I" period. It's a really hard period, and combined with the pregnancy sickness that could possibly come instantly sometimes, it's really hard to live, oth for you and for her. I'm sure things will get better, don't make her feel bal about not having sex, but try to talk to her about it, to know exactly what's on her mind. Hope this will helpa little...Have a nice day :)

Usually in the beginning stages of pregnancy a woman feels so crappy that sex is the last thing on her mind. Fatigue and nausea area big problem in the first trimester. It should get better during the second trimester. That's when energy picks up and most woman have an increased sex drive. I know sex was the last thing on my mind when I was throwing up and sleepy all day for weeks. But it will pass.

Maybe she's scared that it might harm the baby since she's in the early trimester. Some women are terrified that by having sex, the baby might be injured or something! Or some of them felt that they are unattractive during pregnancy! It's time to have a private discussion & hopefully you might find the cause & can allay her anxiety. Communication is very important & please go slow as her hormones are running wild at the moment. If not, then you have to "starve" yourself during the next 35 weeks!

Sucks to be you.
Here's the deal - when pregnant, a woman's entire body chemistry changes.
That includes sex drive.

You two might want to go to a family counselor and discuss the "his needs/her needs" thing...because she needs to understand that what YOU are asking for is normal, and you need to understand that this could just be a symptom like morning sickness and it could pass within a few weeks.
Besides, a counselor could set some guidelines for you both to follow.

From my experience, my wife was very tired for the first seven weeks and after that, she changed...she actually was a bit more sexual (woohoo!).
But every person is different.
In the meantime, show support and understanding...it'll pay off.

Oh, and congratulations, future daddy!

Maybe you should be talking to your wife about this not asking complete strangers. It seems to me you have serious relationship problems. Maybe your wife doesn't feel like having sex. Have you asked her how she's been feeling? I know I had cramps when I was about this far pregnant. Sex was the last thing on my mind. You should talk to your wife. She will come along eventually. Just respect her and comfort her. Don't push her to have sex with you, that will make it worse. You need to sit down and talk to her about whatever is on your mind. I've seen the questions you've been asking on here and I think that if you talk to her you guys can work all this out. Hope this helps. If you need to talk you can email me.

Nothing is the matter except she has tons of hormones running through her body. I was the same way with my first two pregnancies. My husband did not enjoy those times, but after the baby was born everything went back to normal. It would be really nice of her to help you out every once in awhile, though. I'm sure this a tough time for you, too!

I was in the same situation 9 months ago. The first 3 months I didn't feel like having sex at all( that's how pregnant women are), but let me tell you that starting with the 5 th month she will practically haress you. she will want to have lots of sex, so be patient.
