Is it normal to not want sex later in pregnancy?

My partner pressures me for sex all the time. I am almost 8 months pregnant now. Before I did not mind giving in to him just to make him happy regardless if I was in the mood or not. However, now that I am bigger and I feel the baby moving around more I cannot stand the thought of sex. We even went out to buy a vibrator to try to get me more in the mood but once we brought it home I couldn't even stand the thought of using it. I don't even like him touching me sexually at all, in fact it angers and disgusts me. I feel bad because I know it hurts his feelings but what about my feelings? I've been catering to his all this time but now it's too much. Is any of this normal?

    It's normal and if he is a loving husband, he will understand.

    Have you read pregancy literature? Its quite common. And also quite common for months after the birth.

    Everyone is different. I know there are guys that won't have sex with their pregnant wife because they are afraid they will "poke" the baby lol.

    Try oral maybe? Or just tell him how you feel and let him know its not his fault at all so he doesn't feel bad. If he loves you he will understand :)

      Why should she take advice of an idiot who can't even string two comprehensible sentences together?

    I was so uncomfortable, sex was the last thing on my mind. Which really annoyed me. My brain wanted sex but my body made it next to impossible. So frustrating. But my husband was very understanding and just wacked it more. Most women have no in between, either they really really want it, or it is the last thing they want. Both are normal.

    Both my wives were exactly the opposite; they became very, very horny while pregnant, right up until the birth. The second baby was a bit late and we tried to help things along with lots of sex.
    I can't say if it's normal or not. You do the math.
