I am 32 weeks pregnant and my boyfriend does not have any romantic interest in me at all since I was about 4 months.Is this normally for ur partner to behave that way toward you when you r pregnant why is this so. And what could he be worried about. I am still attractive. He doesn't talk much.

ok...from a guys point of view....i was the same way. I thought that with all the moving and twisting and different positions, the baby would get hurt. Talk to your husband and reassure him that its ok....heck, it was the best sex ever for me. Maybe if he asks your doctor the doc can reassure him...good luck.

It's not abnormal for him to be acting this way, but, I would sit down and have a serious conversation with him to figure out the root of the problem.
Maybe he's scared of hurting the baby, in which case a simple internet search could show him that's impossible. Could be that he's scared of hurting you, or he's not quite sure how the positioning would work.
He could also be scared about becoming a father, which could in turn alter his libido. There's a lot of stress that goes along with becoming a parent, mentally, physically, financially, emotionally. He might be seeing you in a new light... before you were his fun girlfriend and now you're going to be the mother of his child.
Talk to him, find out what's going on. Men go through hormonal changes during their partner's pregnancies, believe it or not! It's probably not got anything to do with how you look.

Don't worry. I'm pretty sure he still has romantic interest in you, but he's probably just scared that you guys will hurt the baby (that's there common reason). I think you should talk to him and let him know. Tell him if you feel cramping afterwards that you'll talk to a doctor or something. Just let him know that it's perfectly safe and healthy for you. Also, try taking him to the doctor with you...I think he'll feel much better than. Goodluck!

AWWWW that's so sad. It could be any number of things...some men are very uncomfortable and nervous about all the changes we go through during pregnancy and just don't know how to handle it or talk about it so they clam up.
Some men just plain think pregnant women are unattractive, which is awful...it's such a perfect time to gain closeness and bond with your partner.
Personally my husband found the changes fascinating and loved being with me throughout my whole pregnancy...even when I was a huge whale and wanted nothing to do with him ROFL
I would just open up the topic with him if you can and see if you can figure out what's up. Good luck to you...you're nearing the hindstretch!!!

Everyone is different when it comes to having sex while pregnant or spouse being pregnant. Even though he doesn't talk to much, you should definitely ask him. That's the only way you will know.

It's very normal. He might be afraid of hurting the baby. (Even though we both know that won't happen.) If it bothers you, sit down with him and explain that you are willing and able to persue a little romance. You might even have to be the one to initiate it.

some guys DO react that way. for instance MY husband with my first son was all over me, couldn't get enough affection, sex, whatever it was that he wanted as well as myself, we did. just as if i wasn't pregnant.
With my second son, it was like he was so turned OFF i felt ugly. For some reason, he was afriad we were going to hurt the baby if we had intercourse and stuff. and it was not a nice thing.
It happens for lots of guys. something happens to them. they see your body turning into something that either to guys its the MOST beautiful thing or the biggest turn off.
its HIS loss. HIS problem!
your probably glowing and he is missing out.
I think with some, seeing your body turning into a "baby making machine" as my husbnad used to say, its hard for them to be romantic.
just wait!!! are you going to breast feed? If so, some have a hard time with this too.
MEN SUCK! thats all i can say.
YOUR BEAUTIFUL! (((((((((((((((HUG TO YOU AND YOUR BABY)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
I can't understand guys.

sometimes it's hard to a man to see you as both the hot lady that he wants and also the soon to be mother of his child - it's part of the old madonna/whore complex that men deal with.
maybe he finds the pregnancy unattractive ie. your belly
have u tried to talk about it?

talk to him.. he may be worried about hurting you and or the baby.
my wife was like a nympho for the first one, we did it multiple times a day till she delivered. For the 2nd one, it was 180 degree turn, I couldn't touch her or anything.

It depends...I had sex until about 2 days before I delivered
