Is it normal to not feel attracted to your partner while pregnant?

Mostly.Normal for most people

Yes—pregnancy can temporarily change how attracted to or interested in sex you feel with your partner. It varies a lot, and it doesn’t automatically mean anything is wrong with your relationship.

Pregnancy can bring big shifts in hormones, energy, comfort, mood, and how you feel in your body. For some people, that means less desire or less of a spark toward their partner for a while; others feel more interested than usual. There isn’t one “normal” pattern, and it can change from trimester to trimester.

You don’t have to force sex or affection to prove you still care. If you want to, tell your partner what’s changed and look for kinds of closeness that feel good to you right now. A temporary dip in attraction isn’t a verdict on your relationship.
