Im around 8 weeks and honestly thoda scared to be intimate, worried it might affect the baby in these early days. Husband is also unsure. Is it safe in first trimester or better to wait? Pls share.
In my family, my MIL advised me to be very careful in the initial three months. While medically it is safe, we decided to wait until the first trimester was over just for peace of mind.
Generally, doctors say it is fine if you don't have any complications like bleeding. But when I was at my parents' house, we chose to avoid it in the first trimester just to be completely safe.
Honestly, in the first trimester, I was so tired and sleepy that sex was the last thing on my mind! 😄 It's safe if your doctor says so, but sleep felt way better!
If your pregnancy is normal, it is safe. But if you have bleeding, go to the doctor immediately; hospital visits and extra scans can add up to your budget unexpectedly.
God has made our bodies strong, so if your health is fine, there's no harm. Just stay positive, listen to your body, and make sure your doctor hasn't advised bed rest.
I completely understand the hesitation and worry you are feeling right now. It is usually safe unless your gynac told you otherwise, but don't feel pressured if you are not in the mood.
