My libido has been unusually high since I got pregnant, and I'm quite surprised. Is it true that pregnancy can sometimes make you feel more 'horny' or increase your sex drive?
Absolutely, it's 100% normal. The increased blood flow to the pelvic area and raging hormones do that to you, especially in the second trimester. Enjoy it as long as your doctor hasn't put you on pelvic rest!
Honestly, I am in my second trimester and feeling this so much lately, which makes me a bit anxious! Is it really safe to act on it, or does everyone else also feel this way during this phase?
Yes, it definitely can! Your body is going through so many hormonal shifts, so don't feel weird or guilty about it at all. It's beautiful and totally natural, enjoy this connection with your partner.
Oh god, I used to worry that having these feelings and getting intimate might somehow harm the baby or cause contractions. But my doctor assured me it's normal, though the constant anxiety still kept me overthinking everything!
It's purely biological because of estrogen and increased pelvic blood flow. Unless your gynac has specifically advised against intercourse due to complications like low-lying placenta, it is completely safe and normal.
