Can we have intercourse during 8th month of pregnancy?
This is a bit awkward to ask but im genuinely confused. Im in my 8th month and not sure if its safe now or we should wait till delivery. Thoda hesitant hu to ask my doc directly. Anyone been through this?
Generally, if you have a normal, low-risk pregnancy, it is safe, but you must check with your gynac first. In the 8th month, the belly is quite big, so comfort and safety are key. If you have any history of preterm labor or bleeding, absolutely avoid it.
Honestly, by the 8th month, I was so physically exhausted and nauseous that sex was the last thing on my mind. If you do feel up to it, make sure you are comfortable and there is no pressure on the tummy. But please ask your doctor first to rule out any risks.
I am only in my second trimester and already too scared to even think about this! Is it really safe in the 8th month? I'd love to know if other moms felt this same anxiety about hurting the baby.
In our joint family, elders always say to be very careful and rest in the final months. My mother-in-law kept telling me to avoid heavy physical stress. It's always best to ask your gynac clearly during your weekly checkup.
In my experience, as long as your gynac has given the green light and there are no complications, it is fine. Just listen to your body because you might feel tired easily. Take it very slow and gentle.
Just like with exercise, I kept physical activity very gentle in the 8th month. My doctor allowed light walking but advised being very careful with anything else. Please get your doctor's clearance before doing anything.
I totally understand your hesitation, it's such a sensitive time and we only want to protect our little darling inside. If you feel comfortable and your doctor says it's fine, then go ahead, but don't force yourself if you are feeling anxious.
