Is it possible to have sex during pregnancy
If the expectant mother feels well and the doctor did not give any instructions on this matter, it is possible and necessary. Pregnant women often suffer from the sacrifice of their normal lives. After all, a lot can no longer be allowed. Having sex during pregnancy supports the foundations of a fulfilling life. Also, many mothers are fixated on themselves and their " belly”And stop paying the usual attention to the spouse. And lovemaking during pregnancy maintains this bond between the parents-to-be.
Sex during pregnancy contributes to the good mood of the pregnant woman. Which is very important, because stress negatively affect both the course of pregnancy itself and the life of an already born baby. Also, regular sex during pregnancy prepares the female body and the unborn baby for childbirth. Indeed, in the birth process, the uterus contracts. Of course, stronger than with orgasm, but as a test version of childbirth is quite suitable.
Sex accelerates the blood, which means the baby will receive more oxygen. The female pelvic organs will be saved from blood stagnation. In addition, during pregnancy, all organs are gradually displaced, which guarantees a change in sensations. Almost all pregnant women note that sex at this time was especially pleasant. The frequency and strength of orgasms increases, some pregnant women have erotic dreams. But what are these dreams amazing - they give orgasms.
Situations in which a doctor can prohibit or restrict sexual intercourse to pregnant women:
- risk of miscarriage;
- natural abortions have occurred in the past;
- multiple pregnancy;
- low fetal presentation or placental attachment;
- previously had premature birth;
- multiple abortions;
- leakage of anomalous fluid;
- genital infections.
As soon as you have planned a pregnancy, you need to go through a medical commission and thoroughly examine your body for diseases. Including sexually transmitted diseases. And be sure to be treated. Do not risk your child's health!
Sex during pregnancy: safety precautions
The most important thing to remember in this matter is that it is not possible to get a crumbs with a medium-sized genital organ - 18 centimeters. The child is tightly protected by the muscular membrane of the uterus, amniotic fluid and mucous plug. Also, if we consider the physiology of a woman, the child is far enough from the place where the penis is during sex. And all the binders between the penis and the baby are not in a straight line. Therefore, all the experiences that you can damage the child's head, during normal intercourse with the usual size of the penis, are no more than delirium.
Don't forget about personal hygiene. Be sure to thoroughly wash the genitals of both partners before the act of love. Some doctors still recommend condom sex. In order not to infect the child. But this does not mean at all that the partner is a priori not faithful. No, men can also easily chill their organs.
And be sure to think carefully about the poses for this enjoyable action. It is not permissible to use poses with the deepest penetration. An exception is if the partner has a very small organ. You can read more about the poses below.
What sex is possible during pregnancy
In principle, any. It is worth clarifying right away - without rudeness, strong physical exertion and pressure on the stomach.
Otherwise, there are no restrictions. Oral- in any quantity. Only the partner must be healthy. It is not permissible to engage in oral sex if a man has herpes on his lip. This is a virus that will definitely pass to the baby.
Anal is also possible. You can read more about how best to carry it out below.
If you are used to using additional sex toys then during pregnancy do not refuse in pleasure. Unless, of course, this is hard sex with spanking, suffocation and other things. Such pleasure will have to be postponed until the moment when the baby is born... Remember to maintain good hygiene, all toys must be thoroughly washed with soap. By the way, the use of an intimate lubricant will not harm the baby in any way. If the lubricant is not expired and is used as intended. For example, you shouldn't use a lubricant that is intended for anal sex in regular sex. As a rule, such lubricants have a warming property. That in the wrong place, at least, will cause discomfort.
Note that some men experience decreased libido during pregnancy. It is unlikely that this is due to the fact that the beloved temporarily loses its former forms, provided, of course, that the girl is really beloved, and the pregnancy is desired. No, men also experience stress, because they will soon become dads, and they are still completely unprepared for this. Also, often men have a mistaken idea of female physiology and are firmly convinced that they can harm the baby. Of course, they are very much afraid of this and prefer not to touch their spouse once again.
Sex positions during pregnancy
At this time, it is necessary to use postures in which the pressure on the abdomen will be minimal. For example:
- Lying on your side. Convenient in that the partner's hands are free for additional stimulation of the woman's erogenous zones.
- Woman on Top. She is also good because a woman herself can regulate the depth and intensity of movements, guided by her feelings.
- Back or doggy style. The most optimal position while carrying a child. Suitable even for long terms.
- Face to face. It is in this position that they have sex in the car.
- Reclining. The woman lies on the bed with her legs dangling. At the same time, the partner kneels near the bed.
Sex in early pregnancy
But it is undesirable to do this in the first trimester. Orgasm is all the same contraction of the muscles of the uterus. And in the early stages it can provoke a miscarriage. But you should not completely deny yourself the pleasure. Indeed, in addition to banal sex, there are many more options to get pleasure absolutely safe. For example, oral sex, petting, coitus between the thighs or breasts.
In addition, many mothers experience toxicosis in the early stages. Therefore, they are definitely not up to love. But, if you really want to, then you shouldn't torture yourself. Stress is also not good for a young mother and baby. Be extremely careful.
Late term sex
Be sure to consult your gynecologist. If the doctor does not make any contraindications, love each other to your health.
Permitted and even very important. Indeed, male sperm contains substances that help the uterus to open. Again, orgasm is a little workout of the mother and child's body, preparation for childbirth. I would like to note that if the uterus has not opened, and the child is not yet ready to go out, it is impossible to provoke labor activity with sex. In nature, everything happens in due time and can only coincide with having sex. But there is no way to provoke.
Anal sex during pregnancy
Anal sex during pregnancy is also not one of the prohibitions. It is believed that during this period in a woman's body, all tissues acquire increased elasticity. This means that there will be less pain or no pain at all. Just remember that you can easily transfer bacteria from your anus to your vagina. E. coli will not do anything good for your baby. Therefore, it is better to engage in anal sex strictly through a condom. If after you need to return to banal sex, be sure to remove the protection. By the way, hemorrhoids are often enlarged during childbearing. And during anal sex they can be easily damaged - be extremely careful.
