My husband and I are wondering about intimacy during this time. Is it safe to have intercourse during pregnancy? Are there any specific periods when it should be avoided, or is it generally okay?
I feel a bit shy talking about this, but I've read that if your pregnancy is normal without any complications, it is generally considered safe. Still, checking with your doctor is best.
Yes you can, the baby is safely packed in amniotic fluid and won't get knocked on the head! 😜 Just avoid acrobatics and check with your doc if you have any complications.
Intercourse is completely safe in a low-risk pregnancy because the cervix is sealed. However, if you have placenta previa, bleeding, or history of preterm labor, your gynac will strictly advise against it, so do check with her first.
At my parents' house, we never really spoke about this, but my mother gently advised to avoid it in the first and last months. Honestly, always better to ask your gynac during checkups.
