Usually, in our times elders said to be very careful, especially in first and last months. Listen to your body and don't exert yourself.

Arthi Murthy · Answer

It's safe, baby won't know anything haha! Just find positions that don't squash your tummy, and keep a pillow handy.

Ranjana Salian · Answer

I was so nervous to ask my doctor! But she said it's completely safe unless there's bleeding or complications. Does anyone else feel too tired for it though?

Asha Dubey · Answer

I am reading up on this too. As long as doctor hasn't put you on bed rest, it's supposed to be safe. Better to ask your gynac once.

Ishita Grover · Answer

In IVF, doctors usually advise avoiding it in the first trimester or altogether to prevent any risk. Please check with your fertility doctor first.

Sakshi Mishra · Answer

Yes, it is perfectly safe! Baby is well protected in the amniotic sac. Just avoid putting pressure on your belly.

It's safe, but honestly, your drive might change due to hormones. Just communicate with your husband and go gentle.

We had a long journey to conceive, so we were very cautious. Use comfortable positions and stop if there's any pain or cramping.
