Bit shy to ask this but me and my husband are confused. Im in second trimester now and doc never mentioned anything. Is it safe na or should we avoid completely till delivery?
I am planning my pregnancy right now and had the exact same question in my mind! It's so good to see everyone clearing this up. Good to know it's safe as long as the doctor hasn't given any warnings.
Listen, unless your doctor has specifically told you to abstain due to some complications like low-lying placenta or spotting, sex is totally safe during pregnancy. Just be gentle, find comfortable positions, and stop immediately if you feel any pain.
According to my pregnancy tracker app, baby is safely cushioned inside the amniotic sac, so normal intercourse doesn't harm them at all. Just keep track of how your body feels and avoid it if you have any cramping or spotting.
Yes, it is usually safe, but when I went to stay at my parents' house, my mother advised me to be very careful and gentle. It's a delicate time, so just make sure both of you are comfortable and there is no pressure.
In our joint family, these topics are never discussed, but my MIL kept hinting to rest and avoid too much physical activity. Actually, it is medically safe, but just keep it very light and comfortable, and check with your doctor first.
Honestly, we asked our lead consultant at the private hospital during our first scan itself. They clearly told us that unless there's bleeding or placenta complications, it's absolutely safe. Do ask your own gynac or the hospital staff during your next visit just to be 100% sure.
Personally, because of my past miscarriage, my husband and I decided to completely avoid it during the first trimester out of fear. Even if the doctor says it's safe, only do what makes you feel mentally and physically comfortable.
