First pregnancy here, 2nd trimester. Both of us are thoda confused and scared ki kahi baby ko koi problem na ho. A bit awkward to ask my gynac directly so wanted to know what others did.
Because of our long IVF journey, we were extremely cautious and avoided it completely in the first trimester. If you have a normal pregnancy with no complications, it's usually fine, but please do check with your doctor first. Your peace of mind is most important right now.
Medically, it is perfectly safe as the baby is well protected inside. However, every pregnancy is different, so it's always best to get a quick confirmation from your gynac during your next visit. If there are no complications like a low-lying placenta, you are good to go.
Yes, it is absolutely fine if your pregnancy is going normal and your doctor hasn't put any restrictions. Just be comfortable and gentle, there is nothing to worry about. Enjoy this phase together!
Honestly, having lost a baby before, I was too scared to even think about it and stayed away. If you have any history of bleeding or spotting, please avoid it completely. It's always best to get a green light from your gynac first just to be safe.
Looking back, we were so paranoid about this during my first pregnancy, but actually it's completely safe. Just find comfortable positions and listen to your body. Once the baby comes, you'll hardly get time anyway, so don't stress now!
