Sugar - PG comes with many ups and downs, as does childbirth and motherhood. I recommend that you purchase a book called "What to Expect when your Expecting". I found that helpful in both of my pregnancies.

Sex is good during and after PG - unless you have medical complications, but that is true for any couple, right? And sometimes your libido sky rockets, and sometimes it can't be found (aahh, you're covered in vomit, your bb's are leaky and haven't slept in days can leave you feeling a weee bit unsexy).

As to your DH feeling second best or left out, he will be equally in love with this baby! Love as you knew it will change after you give birth to his child! For my DH and I, a bond developed that we had never known. Granted, you NEED to still make time just for you and DH - because he can and will be slightly neglected when a child is born, especially in the first few months. Talk about with him now - so he is prepared that if and when it happens he can understand that it's not because you don't love him. Hence the invention of DATE NIGHT and babysitters!!!! Good luck!
