Im 16 weeks and both me and hubby are kind of scared to be intimate, dont want to hurt the baby na. Bit awkward to ask but is it safe and what positions are comfortable? pls share honestly.
It is fine to do it as long as your doctor hasn't put a red flag on it. But honestly, as the bump grows, it gets quite awkward! Use side positions and lots of pillows to stay comfortable.
Haan na, many people have this doubt! It is generally safe if your pregnancy is normal, but always confirm with your doctor once. Avoid heavy positions and if there is any pain, just stop immediately, okay?
Actually, unless your doctor has specifically advised pelvic rest (like for low placenta or spotting), it is totally fine. I read on my tracker app that spooning or side-by-side positions are most comfortable as they put no pressure on the belly.
Look, if your pregnancy is completely normal with no bleeding or complications, it is perfectly safe. Just go slow and use comfortable positions where there is no pressure on your stomach. If you feel any pain or leakage, call your doctor right away.
Because of my PCOS and early spotting, my doctor had strictly told us to avoid it in the first trimester. It varies for everyone, so please ask your gynac clearly in your next visit. Don't take any risks if you are unsure.
