Bit of an embarrassing thing to ask but i cant ask anyone in person. Im in first trimester and just want to know if it has any effect on the baby. Pls dont judge, genuinely confused.
Actually, it is completely safe and doesn't harm the baby at all, yaar. The baby is well protected in the amniotic sac. Just check with your gynac once to ensure you don't have any specific medical restriction like placenta previa.
Beta, in our times we were told to be very quiet and careful in these matters. If you feel any cramping or spotting, please rest immediately and consult your doctor. Keep your mind calm and don't overdo anything.
I completely understand why you are asking this; I had massive anxiety about causing harm to the baby. But physically, it is completely harmless unless your doctor has advised complete pelvic rest. Take a deep breath, you are not doing anything wrong.
In my first pregnancy, I felt so guilty and scared to even think about intimacy or self-pleasure. But my doctor explained it's completely safe and normal unless you have complications. It actually helped me relax and sleep better.
I am 5 months pregnant and my sex drive has actually gone up, which felt weird initially. Did anyone else also feel scared to do anything because of mild cramps afterwards? I always ask my doctor before trying anything.
