Naya Rivera’s second-trimester pregnancy limits sex to ‘about two positions’

wenn21879231

I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again: I wish more people cared about Naya Rivera, because she is a mess. She and Big Sean broke off their engagement, and she literally just went and found a dude and used her old wedding plans to marry some guy, Ryan Dorsey. It was gloriously tacky. She and Ryan are currently expecting their first child, and Naya has been blogging about her pregnancy for People Magazine. Her most recent blog post got some headlines this week because she talks about pregnancy sex in the second trimester and the “second trimester slump” of forgetting that you’re pregnant. You can read the full piece here. This is the relevant portion:

During my second trimester, I felt like the black cloud of extreme fatigue had lifted and I was 100 percent myself again. I was ready to hit the town in a cute outfit, grab cocktails with my girls, have wild sex with my husband … Oh, but wait, I’m still pregnant.

There were times during my second trimester when I felt so good that I forgot I was still carrying a child. This mind f— of trickery led to what I believe should be called “the second trimester slump.” Yes, it was amazing to finally not have to deal with the misery and discomfort most women face in their first trimester. But how awful is it to feel like your old self again, but not be able to participate in any of those fun activities you once took for granted?

During this time I had many a vivid dream about martinis and the occasional cigarette that felt so real I found myself panicking when I awoke thinking that I must have sleep smoked or drank. I didn’t of course, but was deeply repressing my urge for my old life.

Other things changed as well. Things like sex with my husband became a bit odd for me due to the fact that I was now limited to about two positions in order to not squash — as my husband puts it — “it’s roof” or have the baby (my belly) staring him in the face. I feel like men are constantly imagining their baby winking at them when they make love to their pregnant wives thus making sexy times more few and far between.

Only two positions? Try harder! No, seriously, I have never been pregnant so I can’t speak to this personally, but someone give Naya a copy of the Kama Sutra so she and Ryan can figure out that there are many positions that don’t involve pressure on a woman’s abdomen/bump. There are also lots of positions that don’t involve the man being face-to-bump.

    Who in the world wants advice from Naya Rivera?

  2. EmmyGrant says:

    It sounds more like the limitations are due to his hang-ups about having sex w a pregnant woman. Maybe he just needs some reassurance that it’s ok.

    • CG says:

      My ex always said that if I ever got pregnant, he would basically refuse to have sex with me for the entire pregnancy. He was totally hung up about possibly hurting the baby. It didn’t matter because I wasn’t planning to get pregnant anyway, but he was just so irrational about it. Sounds like Naya’s husband is the same way!

  3. Kitten says:

    Hmmmm…I want to name her Budget Kim Kardashian but that sounds so redundant.

  4. Samtha says:

    I expected her to be more imaginative than that when it comes to sex!

    • marie says:

      Yeah, wow. I’m not limited on positions until the third trimester usually and that’s just because I can’t breath flat on my back and no amount of pillows can keep weigh off my stomach in I lay on my tummy. It just seems a little soon to be limited and definitely more of a hang up with her husband.

      • writeitoff says:

        +1 Marie! I managed to have sex (almost) daily, during both pregnancies, in a vast array of positions, until (literally) going into labor. Everyone’s different but there are several ways to get what you need. He sounds kind of douchey.

  5. Wiffie says:

    3rd trimester is worse. Yeah you can be creative but there are limitations you don’t expect and certain muscle groups that just don’t work anymore. Considering rolling over in bed takes a5 point turn, you can only do so much. I was so happy to just have plain old missionary again.

  6. TQB says:

    Seriously, I pretty much hated sex the whole time I was pregnant but even I could think of more than 2 positions.

    • Fufu says:

      Me too. I am pregnant right now and from the moment I was 12 weeks in I hated sex. Felt like something was switched off. My husband is so happy we are at the tail end right now because it hasn’t been easy.

  7. Nicole says:

    Ugh Naya is so messy its tragic. Also tragic is how she looks now.
    She’s also coming out with a book so that’s interesting (not)

  8. Greek Chic says:

    wow Naya Rivera has serious problems.

  9. JenniferJustice says:

    Baby is not even here yet and already whining about not being able to party? Perhaps she should not have gotten pregnant so soon with a man she married out of no where.

  10. QQ says:

    Uh..Thanks for the Info Literally No One asked about???

    and since you wanna solicit attention: Buy a Liberator BooBoo…Thank me later for expanding your repertoire

  11. wow says:

    I had forgot all about her but she’s still a famewhore, I see. Did we really need to know about your limited sex psitions, Naya?

  12. Mojoharp says:

    Still half way there with the pregnancy and already complaining about losing her freedom and party lifestyle. Wait til the lil bub arrives, she will be lucky if she can shower and get that projectile vomit out of her hair..or establishing 10 minutes power nap standing up against shower wall.

  13. L says:

    As someone who’s due date is 5 days away … yeah, there’s DEFINITELY more than 2 positions.

  14. jferber says:

    I don’t know her at all, but I can honestly say I don’t believe she wrote any of her blog for People. I, for one, would like to hear more about her and have her be a “thing.” I’m tired of Kim Kardashian hogging all the attention. Let’s make Naya happen! There must be a world of too much information about her and now is the time for it to come out.

  15. Trashaddict says:

    Two things: one, that’s not a baby bump, it’s a mosquito bite. How does that get in the way? and two, T. M. I.
