what makes you feel sexy?

I've been in the mood to dtd a lot lately but I never actually do bc I just don't feel sexy. Obviously feeling sexy makes me more into it so I'm looking for suggestions on what to do to make myself feel as sexy as a 36 week pregnant woman can. Any suggestions ladies?

I have no suggestions, but I'd love to hear what other bumpies have to say because I'm feeling the exact same way!

I shaved and polished my toes. I actually felt a little sexy for the first time in forever after. I didn't dtd though, we did the other day and it hurt like crazy. Do your hair, put on a little sexier make-up....

Pregnant? Or just in general?

 

General...when I was a size 4 and had abs and a little Ken Doll line.

 

Pregnant. Nothing. Ugh.

I'm no where near 36 weeks pregnant but I thought I'd help.

The no.1 thing that makes me feel sexy is for DH to tell me I look/am sexy but there are other things that help me feel sexy without him having to say anything.

1. soft, beautiful fabric in the form of pretty lingerie. There are lots of textures out there to fit every one's tastes. I prefer thin jersey cotton with lace or the tried and true satin. Personally my sense of touch is very important to me for intimacy so maybe that's why that helps.

2.  red lipstick. I don't know why but it makes me feel fantastic! DH is not a fan of lipstick, understandably because lipstick tastes gross, so I found this awesome tinted lip balm by alba botanica called terra tints. it mostly tastes like peppermint chap stick (think burt's bees) plus it keeps your lips protected and soft. Unfortunately just like lipstick it still gets all over the place but in a moment of passion that can be sexy too

3. mood music. For me it's music from the 1930's-1940's jazz and big band era

4. getting clean. Taking a long hot bath or shower makes me feel fresh and warm and soft and relaxed. Sometimes I am so relaxed or even tired from a shower that I need to rest for a bit first but afterwards, all the cleanliness and sense of pride in my appearance can make me feel frisky. Baths, especially with floral bath salts, are definitely great for feeling sexy!

5. staying away from the mirror. The mirror is not your enemy per sey, but too much time in front of it can lead to self doubt and self criticism.

I hope that helps. I feel like I shared some very personal details, but I feel it is for a good cause too!

For some reason just something as simple as kissing DH can get me in the mood. Little kisses that turn into longer kisses, sometimes if I just make the effort to get started the rest just falls into place.

Absolutely nothing.  At this point I do not think it's possible, lol!

Honestly, I now feel sexiest when I am naked in front of the mirror like when getting into/out of the shower - even better, when I have my hair done and am about to get dressed.  Granted, I have to find the right angle and pose but it always makes me smile.

 Try combining some of the other suggestions - take a shower, do your hair and then after you rest from all of that work, put on a bit of make up and embrace your pregnant sexiness.  Try a Demi Moore pose or find your own to show yourself that you are sexy or if you have stretch marks or things that distract you, try to find some sexy, sheer lingerie.

Now, if only I can get DH over his fear that he'll hurt me or the baby if we DTD ...

I bought some new pajamas that I absolutely love and that has helped a ton.  It is a gown that is v-neck, sleeveless and comes just above my knees and it has a robe (same length) to match.  It was not maternity, but I bought a size up and it fits perfect....it cuts just above my boobs and then has no other seams.  It is super soft and the perfect combo of sexy but comfortable.  I find if I wonder around it my frumpy clothes, that is how I feel.  I am trying to be more aware of this as men are visual and I forget that.  I feel like if I think I look like a mess, he does too, which is not the case, so I am trying to keep my "around the house" attire a little more appealing.

Also, keeping my legs shaved and lotioned and toenails painted helps me too.....toenails are getting it tonight :)

And lastly, sometimes if I am not in the mood, just making out with my husband can help change that :) 


Expecting our second baby on February 7, 2013. Trusting Him whatever comes our way.

We lost our first daughter, Hannah Grace on May 4, 2011 at 20 weeks. She was buried on May 14 during a beautiful service at my home church. We are grateful that if she could not be here with us, that she is healed and whole with the Lord. We look forward to the day when we will get to meet her. We love her so much.
