12 weeks now and both of us are honestly a bit scared it might harm the baccha. Nobody really talks about this openly na. Just want to know if its actually safe or we should wait.
Medically speaking, unless your doctor has explicitly put you on pelvic rest due to complications, sex is completely safe throughout pregnancy. The baby is cushioned by the amniotic sac. Still, a quick discussion with your gynac at your next visit will put all your doubts to rest.
God has designed our bodies beautifully, and the baby is safely protected inside. If your health is fine and there are no complications, it is perfectly safe and natural. Just keep your mind positive and do what feels comfortable.
Even I am planning to conceive soon and I always had this doubt if it is safe in the early months. It's so reassuring to read everyone's experiences here, but I guess checking with the doctor first is the best way to clear the mind.
For those of us who conceived after a long struggle or IVF, we tend to be extra cautious and avoid it completely out of fear. If you have any anxiety or a sensitive pregnancy, it's totally okay to take a break and focus on emotional intimacy. Do what makes you feel emotionally secure.
Honestly, please ask your gynecologist before doing anything. Every pregnancy is different, and if there is any low-lying placenta or history of bleeding, doctors strictly advise against it. It is always better to be safe and get their confirmation first.
