Nausea, skin puffiness, back pain and weight gain will pretty much affect your sex drive negatively. Sex during pregnancy is safe and can do wonders to a woman's body and baby bump though. The effort you put during sex will stimulate your metabolism and burn calories, which will make you relax and sleep better.
