Bit shy to ask this openly but husband and I were wondering whats ok during pregnancy. Im in second trimester, everything normal so far. Is this safe or should we avoid? thoda awkward but genuinely wanna know.
Of course, this is not something we can ever discuss at home with MIL around, but medically it is perfectly fine. Just maintain strict hygiene to avoid any vaginal infections, which are very common during pregnancy.
I felt so incredibly shy asking my doctor about this during my first trimester! But she was very reassuring and said intimacy is totally normal. Just be very gentle and make sure you both are comfortable.
I am still trying to conceive, but from what I've read, intimacy is completely fine in a healthy pregnancy. Just make sure to be very gentle and wash hands properly to keep things hygienic and safe.
Honestly, it is completely safe as long as your partner's hands are thoroughly clean to prevent any infections. Just make sure there are no complications like placenta previa or active bleeding, in which case you must consult your gynac first.
