I'm pregnant, and my husband and I are wondering about intimacy during this time. Is it safe or even good to have sex during pregnancy, or should we be careful? What do other women do?
Yes, it is perfectly safe as long as your gynac has not told you to avoid it. Just use comfortable positions where there is no pressure on your stomach.
Actually yaaar, it is totally safe and normal! Unless your doc has specifically put you on bed rest or said no, you are good to go. Just don't stress about it.
Since my pregnancy was high-risk because of my PCOS history, my doctor asked us to avoid intercourse in the first trimester. It depends on your health, so please ask your gynaecologist first before proceeding.
In my first pregnancy, I felt so scared that we might hurt the baby, but my doctor reassured us. The baby is safe inside the amniotic sac. It actually brought me and my husband closer during a stressful time.
Honestly, I was throwing up so much in the first few months that sex was the last thing on my mind! But once I felt better in the 2nd trimester, it was totally fine and safe. Just listen to your body.
