My husband and I just found out I'm pregnant, and we're very happy. We were wondering if it's safe to have intercourse during the first trimester. Is there anything we should be careful about?
Honestly, in the first trimester, I was either sleeping or throwing up, so sex was the last thing on my mind! But seriously, if you both feel like it, just check with your doc first.
Please check with your gynac before doing anything in the first trimester. If you have any bleeding, cramps, or history of complications, they might advise complete rest.
In my early weeks, I felt so anxious about this and we completely avoided it because of fear. But my doctor later told me it's okay unless there's pain or spotting.
I am planning my pregnancy and have read that it's usually safe, but I will definitely ask my doctor once I conceive to be safe. What do you all think?
It's usually fine, but why take risks? Save your energy and avoid any emergency hospital visits which can be really expensive, just ask your doctor during your regular scan.
