The 28-year-old Glee star, who is expecting her first child with husband Ryan Dorsey, opened up about some of the complications that pregnancy has brought to her marriage.
Writing in her column for People magazine, the star revealed: “During my second trimester, I felt like the black cloud of extreme fatigue had lifted and I was 100% 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.”
In an admission that no doubt many mums out there will be able to identify with, Naya added: “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 – ‘its roof’, or have the baby staring him in the face.”
She went on to share her view that the idea of having a baby ‘winking at them when they make love to their pregnant wives’ is what stops so many dads-to-be from wanting to have sex during pregnancy.
We’re glad that Naya chose to shed some light on a topic that is so common but so rarely discussed.
