Can intercourse done during first month of pregnancy?

Question

My husband and I are wondering about intimacy during pregnancy. Is it safe to have intercourse during the first month of pregnancy, or should we avoid it?

Kamakshi Talwar · Answer

I remember being so scared about this back then, but my gynac reassured me it's totally safe as the baby is well protected. Just be gentle and consult your doctor to be absolutely sure.

Yes, it is generally safe if your doctor hasn't told you to avoid it.

I know how confusing and stressful this can be for couples. If your doctor hasn't given you any restrictions, it is perfectly fine, but listen to your body and rest if you feel tired.

Usually, if there are no complications like bleeding or pain, doctors say it is completely fine. But since it's the first month, it's always safest to have a quick word with your gynac.

Malathi Tilak · Answer

Honestly, because of my previous miscarriage, my doctor strictly told us to avoid intercourse in the first trimester. I would advise being very cautious and checking with your gynac first.

Look, generally it is safe, but why take any risk in the crucial first month? Better to ask your doctor directly during your first checkup to see if your pregnancy has any complications.
