It s no picnic, and it s no wonder pregnant women have other things on their minds. For the men who are aroused by their wives in the pregnant state, this can be an anxious, difficult stage. As the months until delivery seem to recede into a distant, sexually starved future, these men may wonder just what they ve gotten themselves into. Just when he s feeling his oats, bursting with masculine pride over the ever-burgeoning proof of his virility, the randy male is often denied what he desires most. But all is not lost.
Hope lies in the mecca of the blessed second trimester.
In fact, some women describe an unprecedented spike in their sexual appetites as their bodies settle into the honeymoon phase of pregnancy. For the fortunate fellow who s been aroused since long before his wife began to show, this is a wonderful time to experience new levels of intimacy and sexual exploration with his delightfully amorous mate. As the belly swells, these lovers find that novel positions may be required to accommodate the woman s comfort and to obey the laws of physics. On the other hand, some men are completely turned off by the changes wrought by pregnancy. To these guys, pregnant women are either unappealing, or they themselves experience a dwindling of their own sexual desire.
