Apr. 26, 2008 at 12:08 AM Very normal.  That's how I felt with my first pregnancy.  My second and third, I went walking, ate yogurt, etc. and tried to keep my weight down.  That's not to say that weight gain is your issue.  It's just a normal part of pregnancy--lack of sex drive based on what you think your self image is.   What I'm trying to say is, is there anything that would help you feel proactive in feeling and looking better?  Walking gave me more energy and toned me up and made me feel more attractive.  And, that in turn, helped me feel more sexy.  Hope this helps.  :)
