Where in the heck has my sex drive run off to?!?

aikoflavored · Jan 4th, 2010, 14:52 PM

Normally I'm ALL over my OH, he has a much lower sex drive than i do, and i've spent nights begging and pleading with him to have

After ov i wanted to

so bad and he was too tired from work so i laid in bed and cried

anyways, the past 3 nights or so, I couldnt be BOTHERED to even think about sex, OH is actually the one trying to initiate which has never happened, EVER, since we've been together. I gave in night before last and it was so weird and boring

i feel bad for OH and myself!!! AF should be here today or tomorrow and usually i try to get in as much

as possible before AF but now i'm just excited for AF so i have a reason to say no!

WHERE HAS MY SEX DRIVE GONE?!?!
I'm ready to put up MISSING flyers!!!

I really don't like this!
I'd much rather be begging OH than be begged BY OH.

Any ideas?!?

SOMETHING HELPFUL?!?!?

(never thought i'd lose my libido

)

You were taking or are still taking clomid if I remember correctly? That will cause your sex drive to diminish. Its great hey, your taking a fertility drug to get pregnant, but a side effect is causing you not to want sex!

lol, nope no clomid here. infact this month OH and i weren't even trying, we just had a lot of accidents..

Sorry I got you confused with someone else then!

Perhaps you are a bit low on zinc, you can take a supplement and that wont hurt a bit, or eat lots of things like shell fish or cabbage, I dare say alot of cabbage wouldnt do much for the romance though!

thats a possibility, good thing i actually really like cabbage!

not so much shellfish though

i didn't know zinc was so special!

Get stuck into the cabbage then!

Im not a big fan of it, no to mention it likes to give me horrible gas!

Sometimes the trying-for-a-baby pressure can sort of take the wind out of your sails a bit. It does ours (both Hubby and I, although not at the same time, typically!). It can be a bit of a mission, basically. Tiredness is another huge factor, and also lots of ladies find that they feel more up for it around their ovulation, and then less so towards the end of their cycle. Definitely don't worry yourself, or you'll only make it worse.

not trying, not stressing too much, i just enjoyed

with OH and i feel weird now that i don't want it.. i feel off.

hopefully i'll be okay after AF shows and cleans me out.

cabbage does do that. there must be a sexier food to eat!
