Bit shy to ask this but im in my second trimester now and both of us are confused if its okay or not. Dont want to harm the baby in any way. Is it safe yaar, what did your docs tell you?

Kavya Walia · Answer

Haan, you can do it, but honestly, who has the energy with all the backache and sleeplessness? Haha! But medically, yes, it's totally safe if there are no complications.

In my family, elders said to avoid it completely, but my doctor assured us it's perfectly safe. The baby is well protected in the amniotic sac, so trust your doctor.

Namrata Roy · Answer

It's absolutely fine, dear, unless you have any pain, spotting, or if your doctor advised pelvic rest. Just listen to your body and go slow.

Ranjana Lohia · Answer

I stayed with my parents so we didn't really have intercourse, but my doctor had told me it's safe in a low-risk pregnancy. Just be gentle and talk to your partner.

Actually, my husband and I were so scared at first, but we asked our gynac and she said it is safe. Are u guys planning to try in the second trimester?

Soumya Vijayakumar · Answer

We did it safely during the second trimester and it was totally fine. Just check with your gynac first to ensure your placenta is in the right position.

Since I had a history of PCOS and early spotting, my doctor strictly told us to avoid it. Please get your scans checked before deciding, caution is better.
