Sex During Pregnancy

The question of intimacy during expectation of the baby is worried by most future parents, especially those who experience a joyful event for the first time.

Changes in attitude towards sex are observed quite often. The bulk of fears boils down to the fear of harming the baby, which causes the spouses to limit physical contact or completely avoid it. It goes without saying that during the period of gestation the body of a woman is subject to physiological, psychological and emotional changes. However, pregnancy is a normal natural process that allows a woman to lead a full life with small corrections and changes. If bearing takes place without pathologies, sex during pregnancy is permitted, and even useful.

Do I need sex in pregnancy?

Taboo on sex during pregnancy for no apparent reason, that is, medical contraindications, increases a woman's level of stress and often creates a barrier between spouses.

Strangely enough, it is when the baby is born that a woman feels a strong sexual attraction, the suppression of which violates her psycho-emotional background. The future mother becomes irritable and nervous, which negatively affects the baby.

Do I need sex in pregnancy? Asking this question to a woman is important: 

• make sure of the doctor-gynecologist that intrauterine development proceeds normally and physical affinity does not cause harm; 
• have excellent health (no toxicity, lethargy, etc.); 
• to understand that sex during pregnancy affects the harmonious and full development of pregnancy.

Endorphins (hormones of joy), produced in the process of intimacy, give a pregnant woman a sense of happiness that is transmitted to the baby.

Nothing strengthens intimate muscles like sex, and this is also a preparation for labor. According to experts, a woman in the position is able to experience more vivid orgasms, which is explained by physiological changes - an increase in the clitoris, a decrease in the vaginal volume, an increase in blood flow to the pelvic area.

Of course, spouses should adhere to sparing positions, be more attentive and sensitive in their relations with each other. If desired (not forgetting about medical recommendations), sexual activity is shown right up to the moment of delivery. However, a man should not force a pregnant wife to physical intimacy, if it is not set up.

Feeling during sex during pregnancy

Sexual attraction in a pair waiting for a baby can both become more active and weaken. Some of the fair sex in pregnancy indicate an increase in sensitivity, and most experience the first orgasm, being in an interesting position. However, the riot of hormones is capable of giving women one of the most powerful and brightest orgasms (even multi-orgasm), while others cause irritation and loss of interest in physical intimacy. The last specialists are associated with the presence of problems in the development of pregnancy itself.

Sex during pregnancy is necessary to achieve close emotional contact between partners. Often, pregnancy becomes a real test in a married couple, when a woman changes appearance, there are sharp mood changes, a decline in social and physical activity. It is time to re-look at each other, to feel spiritual unity and, of course, to learn new types of caresses corresponding to the moment.

In most of his sex during pregnancy, the sensation gives an unforgettable experience. Spouses do not think about unwanted pregnancy and methods of contraception, which allows them to relax and give themselves completely to the tears of tenderness, violent passion. Future parents get a lot of pleasure from new feelings, emotions, as if again learning physical love. Harmonious relations, full of mutual respect for emotions and each other's desires, based on patience and awareness of the importance of meeting a new life, are able to open to the spouses not only new facets of physical pleasure, but also spiritual unity.

Can I have sex during pregnancy?

The absence of medical contraindications and the well-being of a future mother give the opportunity to enjoy new sexual sensations from the moment of conception to the beginning of childbirth. The presence of internal anxiety or physical discomfort is an occasion to visit an obstetrician-gynecologist and dispel your fears. Under normal pregnancy development, sex and its alternative types (petting, oral sex) are allowed even before childbirth.

The fears of future parents to harm a child are often unreasonable. The baby is protected from mechanical influence by the uterine muscles, an amniotic bladder, whose water is extinguished by vibrations, and a mucous clot from the infection.

Mom's excitement causes increased blood circulation, which in turn enriches the placenta with oxygen and nutrients. The sensation of stirring after orgasm is caused by uterine contractions, and not by fetal reaction in the womb. Such abbreviations are akin to birth struggles and are capable of producing a conditioned reflex in the baby: the uterine contraction, the release of endorphins, give rise to joy and pleasure. Therefore, at the time of labor, the first emotional reaction is also formed positive.

Of course, the sexual attraction as the pregnancy progresses constantly changes: at first it is weak, which is caused by malaise and toxicosis, the second period is considered the peak of sexual activity, and in the third trimester the libido decreases again.

So, is it possible to have sex during pregnancy? From the above, it is clear that not only can and is useful, but also necessary.

Future parents should adhere to personal feelings, recommendations of the gynecologist, which will help diversify and adjust the physical closeness to your special position and intimate addictions.

How does sex affect pregnancy?

Sex during pregnancy develops gentle, cherished feelings between spouses, beneficially affects the mother and baby in the womb: 

• sex reduces the action of the hormone responsible for stress, cortisol. For a long time, this hormone prepared the human body for the conditions of survival - hunger, struggle, cold, which is absolutely superfluous to the woman in the period of gestation; 
• at intimacy, a natural massage of the vagina is performed, and the production of oxytocin and endorphin at the time of orgasm will provide a charge of positive mood; 
• regular sex when expecting a baby strengthens family ties and gives a sense of unity with a partner. The woman remains desirable, and this feeling is necessarily in a new physical form for her. The man feels his need; 
• sex is the ability to maintain weight in the normal course of pregnancy and it is easier to lose extra pounds after birth; 
• intimate relationships allow a pregnant woman to experience an orgasm in a new way, and some experience it for the first time in her life; 
• sex during pregnancy has a relaxing effect, improves sleep, relieves nervous overexertion; 
• making love once or twice a week during pregnancy, increase the content of immunoglobulin A, which is an effective and natural remedy for colds.

To understand how sex affects pregnancy, consider the most common misconceptions in this regard: 

• the achievement of a woman orgasm causes premature labor - this statement works a few weeks before the expected delivery, in the rest of the period of gestation orgasmic contraction of the uterus is beneficial for psycho-emotional state, as well as the health of the future mother and baby. For the maintenance of pregnancy, the hormone progesterone responds, the lack of which causes an increased uterine tone and is a reason for abstinence from intimacy; 
• in the process of physical proximity the probability of rupture of the fetal bladder is great - another myth, since the wall of the fetal bladder is dense, elastic and elastic (if there is no pathology) capable of withstanding a strong mechanical effect (often retaining its integrity until the middle of birth); 
• the baby can feel discomfort or pain - the fetus develops, protected by the uterine wall, amniotic bladder and cork from the mucus. Therefore, your baby is not threatened by temperature drop, infection, mechanical damage, and amniotic fluid cradles him as if in a cradle, when mother experiences physical pleasure; 
• sex is the cause of premature detachment of the placenta - if the placenta is physiologically right (there is no presentation, omission), then intimate affinity does not do the slightest harm.

Harm of sex during pregnancy

Medical warnings concern, as a rule, the first and third trimesters of pregnancy. The beginning of bearing is often characterized by toxicosis, weakness, rapid fatigue, painful sensations, a change in taste preferences, which affects sexual attraction. The period before childbirth is characterized by active growth of the abdomen and morbidity of the mammary glands, which also lowers the female interest in the opposite sex.

Of course, every woman should listen not only to the obstetrician-gynecologist, but also to her personal feelings. Men are important to remember that to force the future mother to intimacy is not necessary, if she categorically refuses physical contact or other caresses.

Restrictions on sex during pregnancy relate to various complications in which: 

• there is a threat of spontaneous abortion; 
• diagnosed - miscarriage; 
• there is a leakage of amniotic fluid, which threatens the penetration of infection; 
• previa / low fixation of the placenta; 
• expected twins / triplets; 
• bleeding (other discharge) from the vagina; 
• revealed a sexual infection in any of the partners; 
• gynecologist appointed bed rest.

The harm of sex during pregnancy extends to the days of habitual menstruation, when the likelihood of miscarriage increases and from intimate relationships should be refrained. In addition, any uncomfortable sensations during sexual intercourse are the reason for seeking a consultation with a gynecologist.

Pain in sex during pregnancy

Discomfort in the form of pain during sexual contact in pregnant women is often caused by a lack of secretion, which can be easily remedied by the use of special lubricants or condoms with lubrication.

Pain during sex during pregnancy and the appearance of spotting after sexual intercourse may be associated with increased sensitivity of the cervical epithelium. This is explained by the fact that the surface of the mucous layer becomes loose and easily sits at frictions, and active blood supply promotes smearing efflux. In this situation, you should contact a gynecologist.

The appearance of cramping pains, which do not cease after an intimate affinity for several minutes or more, describe the state of risk of spontaneous abortion. This symptom requires an immediate call to a doctor who is likely to prohibit you from sex during pregnancy.

Common causes of pain syndrome in pregnant women during sex: 

• uncomfortable posture during intercourse, which should be avoided; 
• ovarian cyst - if possible remove it or change the pose for physical proximity; 
• psychoemotional factor - constant anxiety, stress. You can relax by drinking before a dream drops of valerian or motherwort; 
• the presence of thrush - the disease should be treated without fail; 
• neoplasm on a uterus of a benign character - is diagnosed by the gynecologist, is subject to treatment or disposal; 
• infection of the genito-urinary tract.

The appearance of pains of various etiologies should not be humbly tolerated, it is better to go for a consultation, find out and remove the factors that provoke it.

Discharge after sex in pregnancy

The discharge from the vagina of a woman after sexual intercourse is normally considered to be a transparent and liquid consistency. They are produced by special glands of the vaginal mucosa during excitation, facilitating penetration and gliding of the penis. Orgasm of a woman occurs with the appearance of a viscous character, light clots. The basis for anxiety is the presence of a sharp odor, itching or burning, as well as a change in the color of discharge to yellow, gray with an admixture of pus.

Hormonal changes in women during pregnancy contribute to a quantitative increase in the vaginal secretion. White discharge after sex during pregnancy is the physiological norm. There may be a slight sour smell, which is also not a pathology. Observation of brownish, bloody, brown discharge from the vagina can be suspected of a threat of miscarriage, premature birth activity due to abruption of the placenta.

The bloody type of discharge after physical intimacy often indicates erosion of the cervix, which could exist before conception or develop under the influence of pregnancy hormones. Erosion does not affect the process of gestation, but provokes the appearance of ruptures in childbirth.

Sex at the beginning of pregnancy

The onset of pregnancy is marked by a decrease in sexual desire. Women's fears, worries especially during the first pregnancy are explained by the unknown and emotional unstable situation, backed up by poor condition, toxicosis, fatigue, engorgement of the mammary glands. The decline of libido is quite natural due to a real hormonal "explosion". Physiological changes, a different perception of even your favorite smells and sounds - all this often causes negative emotions, and sex at the beginning of pregnancy is possible only with the well-being of the future mother.

It is difficult to think about passionate love of the physical with nausea, vomiting, loss of strength, in a state of increasing nervousness and soreness of the mammary glands. Some women become suspicious, crying, restless and irritable. The moment is aggravated by the fact that her husband's libido remains unchanged. Family understanding is destroyed under the onslaught of misalignment of desires. It is not superfluous to consult a specialist: 

• specify the presence of medical contraindications; 
• raise the issue of the admissibility of orgasms in women; 
• when limiting vaginal contact, find out alternative possibilities for intimacy; 
• sometimes a married couple needs the help of a psychologist / sexologist, which helps to avoid disagreements with forced restrictions in sex.
• If sex is not prohibited during pregnancy, then the spouses should be checked for infection of the genital tract in order to rule out the risk of complications of pregnancy.

Sex in early pregnancy

Periods without toxemia and ailments are naturally used for amorous pleasures, if there are no medical prohibitions on sex in the early stages of pregnancy. Save the sexual harmony will help matrimonial care and understanding that a woman in the beginning of bearing is not able to physically show the previous zeal for sex.

From a man requires a lot of patience and diligence in the prelude, which you sometimes need to start from afar. We are talking about completely platonic studies, such as: viewing family photos, wedding videos, listening to your favorite hits from the moment you get acquainted with the transition to foot and back massage. All these tendernesses will help the pregnant wife to tune in to the right way. The main thing is not to rush, do not pressure or coerce.

Sex during pregnancy at the initial stage is full of deviations from habits and stereotypes. For example, it is advisable to transfer moments of intimacy to daytime instead of night or night. In this case, the woman will not have time to get tired for the day and will be in the right mood.

It is important for a man to understand that stimulation of the breast can bring incredible pain to a woman and it is better to give it up for a while.

Sex in the first weeks of pregnancy

Abstinence from intimacy after the onset of conception concerns situations with the existing threat of abortion, provoked by the flow of blood into the small pelvis and spasmodic contractions of the musculature of the vagina. In the first trimester, gynecologists advise to avoid sexual contact, especially if there was a problem of not wearing before.

In connection with hormonal changes, the onset of orgasm in pregnant women naturally decreases, representing a natural protection for the preservation of the embryo. The degree of sexual desire and the possibility of achieving orgasm is largely due to the psychological characteristics of the pregnant woman. Therefore, some women with full pregnancy feel full freedom and emancipation in sex.

Sex in the first weeks of pregnancy is allowed after consultation with a gynecologist, provided the normal physical condition of the future mother. The practice of intimacy involves caution without reaching a woman's orgasm and deep penetration of the penis.

The first weeks of pregnancy do not change the female body, without creating obstacles for intimacy, but some future fathers subconsciously worry about the possibility of harming the child born. My husband will not stop visiting a gynecologist with his wife and dispel their unreasonable fears. If complications in the development of pregnancy is not detected, then until the end of the first trimester, you can lead a familiar sex life. In the presence of obstetric contraindications ask the doctor what alternative forms of sex can be practiced.

Sex in the first months of pregnancy

Gynecologists advise to stop sexual intercourse for the first two months of gestation, even if there is no pathology, motivating it with a temporary need for sufficient attachment of the fetus inside the uterus. And what about women who experience an irresistible craving for sex in this period? Such future mothers are advised to be careful, so that there is no disruption of pregnancy. The danger of orgasmic contraction of the uterus is known to everyone, but few know the negative consequences of female abstinence (in the presence of a strong inclination). Sexual "hunger" produces in the body of a pregnant woman prostaglandins - substances that increase the uterine tone, which is fraught with interruption of pregnancy.

Most of the sexes in the first months of pregnancy are not happy because of physical ailments. The female organism undergoes a powerful restructuring on the endocrine and nervous level, the habit of getting pregnant becomes as a result - toxicosis, headaches, swelling of the mammary glands, etc. The male libido remains at the same level, which creates many problems in marital relations, which can be solved by a gynecologist or sexologist. Keep a harmonious relationship is possible only with careful, attentive attitude towards your partner. Improvements in well-being allow partners to resume physical intimacy if there are no obstetrical injunctions.

Sex in the first trimester of pregnancy

The action of progestins has a strong effect on the condition of a woman. Thanks to these hormones, actively developed by the body at the beginning of gestation, most women are prone to fits of lightness, increased emotionality, irritability, tearfulness, inadequate reaction.

The first trimester is characterized by a weakening or total lack of interest in sex on the part of women. The main reason for this is the physiological changes and psychoemotional load. Breaking of the mammary glands is the most unpleasant factor in perestroika, when even the slightest touch causes painful sensations. And the halo surrounding the nipple becomes sensitive. This fact makes it impossible to stimulate the breast, as a way of love affection.

Often, sex in the first trimester of pregnancy is not possible because of the poor state of health of the pregnant woman herself. Attacks of toxicosis, increased excitability, capriciousness, worry about bearing weary woman.

Regardless of the physical condition of the female body, sex during the first trimester pregnancy has medical limitations when: 

• threat of miscarriage; 
• bleeding; 
• leakage of the amniotic fluid; 
• presentation / low position of the placenta; 
• infection of one parent.

The task of the spouses to get the gynecologist maximum information about: 

• possible complications from intimacy; 
• duration of the abstinence period; 
• the possibility of alternative sex (oral, anal, etc.); 
• admissibility of an orgasm in a woman.

A complete taboo on sex during pregnancy is a big rarity. Spouses, to whom the doctor allowed intimacy, should be careful, focusing on women's feelings. It is important for future parents to remember that the uterine mucosa becomes loose and easily injured with frictions, and the immunity of the genital area also decreases. For these reasons obstetricians recommend the use of a condom.

Sex in the second trimester of pregnancy

The second trimester of gestation is the flowering of passion in a married couple. The woman, as a rule, feels well, passes the soreness of the mammary glands, there is an improvement in lubrication. All these factors increase the intensity of sweet sensations during sexual intercourse with a woman. And some experience their first orgasm just in this period. Future mothers are capable of multi-orgasm, about the possibility of which previously could not be suspected. Most couples are experiencing a new stage in sexual relations, claiming the title of the best love adventure.

A medical ban on sex in the second trimester of pregnancy is possible because of a threat of miscarriage or an abnormal placental location. Therefore, you should make sure the gynecologist about the possibility of sexual activity.

Men who love oral-genital contact may cool to their weakness, since the discharge from the female genital organs in the second period acquires a specific smell. A woman should regularly hold a wet toilet.

The end of the third trimester marks the stirring of the baby, which increases the fears of the parents to harm the child when making love. Disseminate this myth will help appeal to physiology: in the mother's womb, the baby is protected by amniotic fluid, the thickness of the uterine muscles, and a cork of mucus. Moreover, during orgasm, blood supply increases and, as a consequence, more oxygen and nutrients enter the child.

Sex in the third trimester of pregnancy

Proximity of births, voluminous stomach make future mother experience, feel her unattractiveness. Anxiety in the form of late toxicosis (puffiness, pressure spikes, etc.) is often the cause of a decrease in sexual desire.

The raised stomach does not allow the woman to actively move, make love in the usual poses. For example, the position of the pregnant on the back helps to squeeze the inferior vena cava (under the weight of the fetus in the uterus). The "knee-elbow" position causes discomfort in the lower back. The "rider" pose also does not fit in the third part of bearing, since it assumes certain physical efforts, even dexterity, on which the woman is not capable at this stage of pregnancy.

Sex in the third trimester of pregnancy should meet the main conditions - gentle positions without pressure on the abdomen, exclude a heavy load for the future mother and direct punch of the penis into the uterus.

In the last trimester there is a discharge of colostrum, which is perceived by the men in a peculiar way. Therefore, it is necessary to refuse stimulation of the mammary glands.

The cervix also has increased vulnerability. There is a looseness of the mucosa, its susceptibility to mechanical damage in frictions, which is fraught with spotting discharges after sexual intercourse.

An important influence on sex during pregnancy of this period is the psychoemotional state of the spouses, especially if the first-born is expected. Reduction of female libido is associated with excitement before the forthcoming birth activity. Men also experience anxiety before the upcoming event and realize that a beloved woman will soon have a new object for attention. Male reassessment of the position in the family often lowers the sexual desire.

Restrictions of medical nature in the third trimester apply to the risks of spontaneous abortion, miscarriage of the placental position, multiple pregnancies, symptoms of amnionitis.

Sex at 1 month of pregnancy

On the question of intimacy in the first month of bearing, the opinions of doctors were divided. Some experts are categorically against carnal pleasures that can cause spontaneous abortion at an early stage. Other gynecologists allow physical relationships between spouses, provided that the future mother is well-being and careful.

As practice shows, sex at 1 month of pregnancy is not possible because of the physical indisposition of a woman. Headache, nausea, drowsiness, fatigue, weakness, tenderness of the mammary glands lower or even nullify the libido of the future mother. In this case, only care, understanding, empathy and gentle treatment are expected from a man.

A hormonal surge can, on the contrary, increase the sexual desire of a woman, but it happens much less often. Such couples are still advised not to forget about their situation, be more attentive to each other, make love without sudden movements. It will be appropriate to use a condom to protect the cervical mucosa, which undergoes enormous changes, from infection.

Sex during pregnancy in the first month is allowed to women without pathologies, which should be checked in time for a gynecologist.

Sex at 1 week of pregnancy

In medical practice, the beginning of pregnancy is calculated from the first day of the last month. Therefore, the first week of gestation is conditional, as during this period there is a preparation for conception with the maturation of the egg. Such seemingly paradox in addition to convenience in the calculation hides a deep meaning - it allows you to judge the quality of the female egg and the health of the unborn child. Difficulties in determining the date of conception are due to the fact that fertilization can occur on the second to third day after physical contact.

It should be understood that the midwife or gestational gestation period includes an average of 40 weeks (10 months, in each of which 4 weeks) with a breakdown by 3 terms: 1-12 weeks, 13-27 weeks; 28-40 week.

The first week of pregnancy is no different from any other, a woman does not even know about the new condition for her. Future fruit is a ripe follicle, preparing for ovulation. For this reason, sex at week 1 of pregnancy (according to the obstetric calendar) is simply necessary for the birth of a new life.

Sex at 2 weeks of pregnancy

The second week of pregnancy, like the first gestational period, is not actual - the follicle continues to ripen, and the body is actively preparing for conception. This is a kind of testing of the female body for the ability to fertilize.

The most successful moment for conception will be sex at 2 weeks of pregnancy for the obstetric calendar. Future parents will not be prevented by a short break for 2-3 days in order to accumulate a sufficient number of active spermatozoa. During this period it is important to cancel the intake of chemical products, to refuse from tobacco and alcohol, to avoid douches and, of course, contraceptive measures. If you have not yet managed to get rid of negative habits, then do not miss the moment.

Optimal for conception is considered a "knee-elbow" position, and after sexual intercourse it is recommended not to get out of bed for about 20 minutes, refusing to take a shower. With a successful outcome, the egg will meet with the spermatozoon and fertilization will occur.

Sex at the 3rd week of pregnancy

If in the first two weeks you fail, the beginning of the third week can be marked by the long-awaited fact. If the fertilization was completed earlier, then the egg for a week moved along the fallopian tubes, continuously dividing and developing. At the third gestational week it is introduced into the uterine cavity, the placenta and umbilical cord begin to be laid. This period is the most important, since the risk of spontaneous interruption of the pregnancy is great. The woman's organism perceives a fetal egg as a foreign body and prevents its implantation into the wall of the uterus. Hence, malaise, an increase in temperature, a general weakness.

Changes in the hormonal level cause a sharp decline in the female libido or increased sexual attraction to the spouse. Specialists take both states as the norm associated with the individual characteristics of the organism.

Some doctors do not recommend sex at the 3rd week of pregnancy, provided a possible miscarriage is due to insufficient attachment of the fetal egg to the endometrium of the uterus and a lack of desire in the future mother.

Sex at 4 weeks of pregnancy

The first four weeks of pregnancy, as a rule, pass unnoticed for a woman. Embryonic attachment to the uterine cavity has already occurred. Three embryonic leaflets begin to form: ectoderm (cells of the nervous system), endoderms (form the basis of most internal organs) and mesoderm (the basis for the emergence of connective tissue, blood, musculoskeletal system). Further development of the embryo sometimes provokes a change in taste preferences, increases the sense of smell, leads to increased irritability and nervousness, reminiscent of premenstrual syndrome. It is possible to observe nausea in the morning and rapid fatigue.

Despite all the above symptoms of pregnancy, for many women the beginning of bearing does not bring any changes in the state, even on the contrary increases the attraction to her husband. Do not miss the opportunity, because sex at 4 weeks of pregnancy is not dangerous.

If a woman, because of physical or psychological changes, refuses intimate relations, the spouse should not force her. It should also be clarified by the gynecologist, how relevant in your case is the threat of miscarriage, what measures should be taken to preserve the pregnancy. At a minimum, the doctor will suggest using a condom and limit the number of physical contacts, and as a maximum - will impose a rigid taboo on sex during pregnancy.

Sex at 2 months of pregnancy

By the second month of pregnancy, many women are already getting used to their new sensations and changes. At the stage from the fifth to the eighth week, noticeable changes continue - a change in taste preferences, exacerbation of smell, etc. It is not uncommon for physical ailments in the form of vomiting in the morning, dizziness, heartburn, and swelling. There are sharp mood swings.

The second month of gestation can mark hormonal disorders related to malfunctioning of the adrenal cortex or the predominance of the male hormone androgen. Therefore, on the border of the seventh-eighth week, there is the largest number of spontaneous abortions.

Sex for 2 months of pregnancy is contraindicated in couples: 

• at risk of abortion; 
• in cases of multiple pregnancies; 
• in the presence of abnormalities of placental location; 
• in cases of bleeding (during / after physical proximity) or infections in one of the spouses.

The normal course of pregnancy does not interfere with intimacy. However, bright flashes of sexual desire or their complete absence are accepted as the norm for different women. This should be taken into account by men and not to force the future mother to intimacy against her will. Sex during pregnancy at an early age and a female orgasm has a beneficial effect on the developing fetus. It is important to observe moderation in sexual life due to the fact that the fetal egg is not sufficiently introduced into the uterine cavity.

Sex at 5 week of pregnancy

From the fifth week of gestation, active growth of the uterus begins. Despite the fact that your baby weighs only about 4 grams, during this period the contours of the arms and legs are drawn, the respiratory and central nervous system is laid, the liver and pancreas are formed. The growing uterus presses on the bladder, so the urge to go to the toilet becomes more frequent. Along with this nausea, pouring of mammary glands, a change in mood indicate all the signs of pregnancy.

Hormones make the unimaginable with the female psyche - from the state of euphoria to complete frustration, nervousness. Breast augmentation will delight your spouse, but for you it may be a real test. Soreness with the slightest touch makes it impossible to stimulate the nipples.

As for intimacy, everything depends on the state of health of the future mother, the strength and nature of the manifestation of toxicosis, the presence of sexual attraction in a woman. Some women just pursue erotic fantasies, while others state a complete lack of desire for physical intimacy with the spouse.

Absence of disturbing signs in the form of bloody discharge, pulling the sensations of the abdomen bottom makes possible sex on the 5th week of gestation. Live by the rule: everything that does not harm and delivers the maximum of pleasure, favorably affects you and the little man in your womb.

Sex at 6 week of pregnancy

Some of the women may suspect of the fact of conception only at the sixth week of gestation. A constant feeling of frustration, fatigue, decreased activity and attention, nausea in the morning and after eating, are pushing the idea of the birth of a new life.

The body intensely produces the hormone progesterone, which serves to maintain pregnancy. Its main goal is to eliminate the increased tone of the uterus by preventing uterine contractions. The sixth week is the time of fixation of the placenta inside the uterine wall and the start of its active development. Special attention should be paid to the fact that the neural tube, which serves to form the fetal brain, is completely tightened by the tissue at this stage of gestation and the division of the nerve cells takes place. For this reason, the future mother should avoid any negative factors on the physical and mental state.

The absence of obstetrical warnings and the excellent state of health of a woman make sex at the 6th week of pregnancy not only possible, but also an important condition for the excellent disposition of the spirit of the future mother. During orgasm, hormones of happiness (endorphins) are produced in large quantities, thanks to which the woman and the baby are filled with joy, harmony and love. And what else is needed for the full development of a small person?

Sex at 7 week of pregnancy

Sex during pregnancy gives future parents not only sweet physical sensations, but it is important on the emotional and spiritual planes. Joint joyful expectation of a new life unites spouses, teaches to be more attentive to one's half, to show concern and understanding.

Therefore, if the ban on sex at the 7th week of pregnancy is not established, use your position, not forgetting the rules of caution. Some married couples are faced with insufficient allocation of "lubrication" in a woman in view of physiological restructuring of the body. This problem is easily solved by the use of special lubricants or condoms on their basis.

If, however, your toxic companion has become toxicosis from the very beginning of conception, then in the most "neglected" cases it also gives way to moments of well-being that are not bad for intimate relationships with your spouse. Undoubtedly, men will discover an increase in the period of preliminary caresses, which will begin with a joint platonic ritual - a review of the family album, memories of past trips, etc. Sex during pregnancy does not suffer rush, and the usual sexual impulses are best transferred to daytime, when the level of female fatigue is relatively small.

Sex at week 8 of pregnancy

The eighth week of bearing is called critical from the point of view of negative factors, capable to harm future mother and child. A pregnant woman sensitively catches the slightest changes in the body, learns to react to the condition of the baby, she develops intuition. A husband should trust the sensations of his wife, on an unknown level capable of realizing whether everything is in order. Therefore, you should not incline your spouse to sexual intimacy, if she does not want. With the frequency of physical contacts and the sophistication of the poses, it is also better to wait.

The experiences of future parents most often extend to the fear of harming the baby, for this reason couples often deny themselves the fleshly pleasure. If the risk is contrived, as confirmed by tests, examinations and the conclusion of a gynecologist, sex at week 8 of pregnancy will only benefit. Long-term abstinence adversely affects the emotional state of a woman who has a strong sexual desire, discontent and irritability is transmitted to the fetus. Denial of intimacy without grounds often erects a wall between spouses. Therefore, if you have doubts, it is better to ask the doctor about the possible poses in intercourse, the admissibility of orgasm in the future mother and other exciting moments.

The appearance of a pulling type of pain in the lower abdomen, if there is no threat of miscarriage, is not considered an anxious symptom. The presence of brown precipitations along with weakness and dizziness, sometimes painless, requires immediate consultation with a specialist and refusal to have sex.

Sex at 3 months of pregnancy

The first three months of gestation are the most responsible. This is the period when the main organs and systems of the future baby are laid, and the embryo is securely attached to the uterine cavity.

Sex at 3 months of pregnancy is acceptable in the absence of medical contraindications in the form of increased uterine tone and the problem of miscarriage. The end of the first trimester for a woman is a period of extinction of unpleasant sensations, the end of toxicosis and an increase in sexual desire. If the doctors still recommend abstinence, then find out the possibility of using alternative forms of sex: petting, orogenital contacts, vestibular coitus (intimate contact between the feminine females at the level of the vestibule, in the absence of complete penetration), etc. Replacement forms of love physical are possible with the use of special lubricant, most of which has a regenerating, nutritional effect, serves as an antiseptic.

For a future mother who has a strong need for intimacy, the absence of such is undesirable. Such women can dream dreams of erotic content, ending with orgasm. Therefore, it is better to "discharge" in a natural way with less stress on the uterus and your own psyche, without forgetting the condom with the lubricant.

Sex at the 9th week of pregnancy

At the ninth week, the tummy is very small, and even more complicated processes take place inside - the cranus forms the reproductive system, the cerebellum, the pituitary gland, lymph nodes and a layer of adrenal glands are formed, responsible for the development of adrenaline. There is an opinion that the child's brain from this moment can notify his mother about the urgent need with the help of special signals, and the pregnant woman perceives them by changing taste preferences.

In the mother's womb the child shows more and more activity, plunging into sleep for a few minutes and waking up again. A small researcher perceives sounds from outside, discerns the taste of food, catches smells, lights, changes temperature, responds to touch.

The main thing is not to press on the belly and choose positions that are comfortable, first of all, for the future mother, not bringing her discomfort and pain.

Sex at the 15th week of pregnancy

At normal development of pregnancy sex on 15 week of pregnancy brings only advantage. Sexual arousal of a woman favorably affects the filling of blood vessels of the vagina, enhancing pleasant sensations. Female orgasm becomes brighter, and the development of endorphins and enkephalins causes positive emotions in the baby. A man, despite the observance of caution, is experiencing no less sensual pleasure.

Gynecologists recommend to refuse from gross sexual intercourse, sudden movements, deep introduction of the penis and uncomfortable positions. Direct your thoughts to the discovery of the sensory perception of the partner, give more time to foreplay and your attempts to achieve emotional and spiritual fusion parallel with the physical will succeed.

For many women, the real opening in the second stage of gestation can be the intensity of one's own sensations, the appearance of multi-orgasm. Therefore, do not deny yourself the pleasure in the absence of obstetric contraindications such as: risk of pregnancy breakdown, abnormal placenta location, multiple pregnancies.

Sex at week 16 of pregnancy

The sixteenth week of gestation is characterized by the absence of unpleasant sensations. Thoracic glands continue to increase, but it is painless. Signs of toxicosis and frequent urination are in the past. The woman is full of strength, energy in this period of joyful expectation of a new life.

Future mothers who have not experienced the first stirring of the baby a few weeks earlier, get acquainted with new quivering feelings on the sixteenth week. The growth of the uterus continues and the stomach is markedly protruding. The uterus exerts pressure on the intestines, which leads to discomfort in the form of swelling, constipation, heartburn.

Specialists note that some women at this time are more vividly perceived orgasmic contraction of the uterus, but other future mothers achieve orgasm is more difficult or even impossible. This fact is explained by individual features of the body and hormonal background.

The appearance or strengthening of tremors of the baby often bring resonance in the sexual relations of the couple. You should not worry about the possibility of harming a child, if there are no strong medical prohibitions on sexual activity.

Sex at the 17th week of pregnancy

From the seventeenth week of intrauterine development, the baby's body begins to produce immunoglobulin, as well as interferon. This means the ability to withstand the mother's infections.

The appearance of the abdominal tenderness is explained by the growth of the uterus and pressure on the internal organs, ligaments. The belly itself acquires a rounded shape, because of which some women begin to complex. As for intimate relationships in a married couple, sex at the 17th week of pregnancy is perceived in different ways. In their majority, both spouses are afraid of physical contact, thinking that they can hurt the baby. Such reasons for abandoning sexual relations are groundless. A gentle and gentle expression of feelings is useful for both future parents and the child. Firstly, sex is a natural gymnastics for the muscles of the vagina, which is indispensable for a woman in a position. Secondly, in the body of the mother, a hubbub of happiness is developed, which favorably affects the woman and the child. Third, staying in a special mental state increases sensory perception and the number of erogenous zones of the female body. Fourthly, a man likes "appetizing" forms of his wife. Therefore, gently enjoy your condition if there is no threat of miscarriage or other reasons for abstinence.

Sex at the 18th week of pregnancy

In the second trimester, it's time to resume intimate intimacy between spouses if abstinence was required due to poor health of the expectant mother or obstetric indications. Sex at the 18th week of pregnancy is sometimes compared to another honeymoon. Partners dissolve into each other, discovering new facets of sensual pleasure.

Round female forms look pretty attractive in the eyes of a man. The future mother has forgotten about malaise, toxicosis, weakness, etc. Her sexual desire reaches at this time of unprecedented heights. If there is no increased uterine tone and infections of the genital tract, doctors recommend using a second trimester for physical intimacy. However, spouses should be careful and not show excessive activity with excessive ingenuity. A sense of proportion and responsibility are the main companions of future parents.

The prohibition of sex during pregnancy of the second stage of gestation extends to multiple pregnancy, cases of low location of the placenta, leakage of amniotic fluid, diagnosis of miscarriage.

Sex at 19 week of pregnancy

The nineteenth week corresponds to the third week of the fifth month of gestation. This quiet period should be entirely devoted to yourself: to make a trip to your relatives or a planned trip. An obstacle may become unimportant health and the threat of spontaneous termination of pregnancy. If everything is good in your case, the gynecologist will advise you to be active. By the way will have walks in the fresh air, fitness group for pregnant women, swimming and sex at the 19th week of pregnancy. Intimate intimacy with the husband will naturally train the muscles before giving birth.

The growing tummy and discomfort in the lower back will be the reason to look for more comfortable positions when communicating. The most comfortable position is the pose on the side, if necessary, use a pillow under the stomach or thigh. A woman can control the depth of the introduction of the penis, sitting on the man from above. This position is also convenient, since it does not carry a load on the stomach. Experiment with supports, for example, a back of a chair or a sofa. A woman can sit on her side on the edge of the bed, and the man kneel. The main thing is to find a comfortable position for both spouses.

Sex at week 20 of pregnancy

The future mother clearly senses the growth of a new life in her womb according to the manifestations of sometimes violent activity. The baby hears sounds from outside and discerns the mother's voice, reacts to light and touch. This period of gestation is characterized by the appearance of the first training fights.

An important point in married life is sex on the 20th week of pregnancy, which can bring incredible pleasure and sensual discoveries. Of course, future parents should be careful in bed, avoiding "rough" sex. A woman should fully rely on her feelings and take the leading role in choosing positions on oneself. For the future mother, comfort and convenience are important when intimacy is close. With the increase in the belly, you have to adjust in the usual poses, so as not to put pressure on the baby.

If after sex for a long time do not undergo uterine contractions or convulsions, you need to see a doctor. The appearance of bloody discharge also requires consultation with a gynecologist, but as a rule, they indicate the presence of erosion or sensitivity of the cervix.

Sex at 6 months of pregnancy

Thanks to the work of hormones, the baby is transferred to the emotional state of the mother, so she should tune in to the positive, stay in a calm mood. The pleasure from sex will undoubtedly have a beneficial effect on your child, who can well distinguish his mother's voice from common sounds.

A woman is full of strength and energy, and there are not so many causes for concern - rare dizziness, pain in the lower back, quick fatigue. The breast is poured and gets sexual shape. About 75% of couples in the sixth month continue to implement their sexual fantasies. The size of the abdomen requires great ingenuity, caution and skill.

This period is considered as calm as possible on medical indicators and most often the gynecologist gives a "green light" to sex at 6 months of pregnancy. The husband should prepare the wife's breast for the upcoming period of feeding, stimulating the nipples. Of the unpleasant moments, we should note the changes in the sexual secretion of a woman, often acquiring a specific smell. To perform an oral-genital contact partner is important to make a regular wet toilet intimate zone.

Sex at week 21 of pregnancy

Here comes the quietest time of bearing. The baby in the mother's abdomen has plenty of room for somersaults and other acrobatic tricks. The baby catches mom's mood, gives you different signals from her secluded place. Often, such activity falls just at the time when my mother wants to rest or at night. Here the first parental skills will be useful: sing the lullaby to the baby, stroke your stomach with your hands, and Papin's hand can come in handy.

Physical ailments, weakness, unwillingness of the future mother, as well as the danger of abortion become reasons for abstinence from intimate life. Most often, a woman in the second trimester feels well, so sex at 21 weeks of pregnancy becomes a peculiarity in the relationship between spouses. Sexual attraction of a woman increases at times, partners are deprived of concerns about contraception, they are united by a common joyful expectation, filling hearts with tenderness and careful attitude. Despite the fact that complex sexual positions are no longer for you and better off with deep penetration, sex during pregnancy gives both partners a special sense of bodily and spiritual unity.

Sex at week 22 of pregnancy

Active stirring of the baby delivers mommy joyful moments. The child pushes his legs, rests against the uterine wall. By such actions, he can express his displeasure with loud sounds or signal a lack of oxygen. In the latter case, the benefit will come from sex at the 22nd week of pregnancy. Orgasmic contraction of the uterus increases blood circulation in the pelvic organs, which contributes to the flow of oxygen into the placenta. In addition to this mother's pleasure from intimacy is transmitted to the baby through hormones of happiness - endorphins.

Do not worry about the possibility of harming your child, unless the doctor has forbidden physical contact. The baby in the womb is reliably protected from infection and mechanical interference. The amniotic fluid rocks it like in a cradle, and uterine contractions are perceived by him as waves of joy and pleasure.

Female orgasm in this period of gestation becomes as bright as possible, moreover, some members of the fair sex may for the first time truly experience sensual pleasure.

Sex at 23 week of pregnancy

The tummy continues to round off, and it becomes more difficult for the expectant mother to breathe. Time to learn the breathing practices needed in the process of labor. Some discomfort is felt when the baby's kicks fall into the ribs. The activity of the child at night often does not give a full sleep. Pay more attention to yourself, properly allocate time for sleep and wakefulness.

In some women, the mammary glands begin to excrete colostrum, so stimulation of the nipples will have to be canceled. However, intimate intimacy should not be abolished in the absence of obstetric contraindications. The growth of female libido, increased sensitivity, activation of erogenous zones make sex at the 23rd week of pregnancy memorable for both spouses. The peak of pleasure and the new facets of sexual relations is the time of the second honeymoon.

It is highly undesirable to change a partner in this period of gestation. The microflora in the vagina is quite sensitive to foreign microorganisms, which is fraught with infectious diseases.

Alternative forms of sex (anal, oral) should be practiced strictly following the rules of hygiene. In the oral cavity there is a mass of pathogens, especially in the presence of caries. A man should use a toothbrush just before cunnilingus.

The prohibition of sex during pregnancy extends to the threat of miscarriage, multiple pregnancies, pathologies in the location of the placenta.

Sex at the 24th week of pregnancy

Sex at the 24th week of pregnancy is prohibited when: 

• genital tract infections; 
• threat of abortion; 
• leakage of the amniotic fluid; 
• presentation / low attachment of the placenta; 
• multiple pregnancy; 
• bleeding / spotting discharge from the vagina.

The absence of medical prohibitions makes it possible and necessary sex during pregnancy. Do not forget to clarify with the gynecologist about the desirability or undesirability of achieving orgasm by a woman. In this case, it is necessary to focus on the caresses that satisfy the man, but do not bring the woman to ecstasy, so as not to overload the uterus with blood and not cause orgasmic contraction.

Consult for alternate forms of sex, which include not only orogenital and anal contacts. Many spouses practice during this period a sexual intercourse without penetrating into the vagina - between the hip joints or between the woman's breasts.

Obstetricians recommend using a condom to avoid provoking softening of the cervix and prevent infection. Sexual postures should meet the main requirement - to be comfortable, without pressure on the stomach.

Sex at 7 months of pregnancy

The seventh month can return to the future mother anxious thoughts about close birth, and often signs of late toxicosis. Specialists recommend rest alternating with walks in the open air, tune in to a safe solution from pregnancy.

Decently enlarged abdomen serves as the main reason for making a woman feel clumsiness and sluggishness, as well as causing significant inconvenience in sexual intercourse. When caressing the breasts, there is a discharge of colostrum, which does not taste to all men.

Analyzing the physical condition of the pregnant woman, the results of tests and examinations, the doctor summarizes the possibility of sexual contact at the beginning of the third stage of gestation. The ban on sex at 7 months of pregnancy is associated with the risk of premature labor, the detection of infection.

Sex during pregnancy is not capable to do much harm to the kid. It is interesting that each child reacts to the peak of the parents' pleasure in their own way: some are activated, while others are quieted down. The future father must be able to pacify his child by paternity.

Sex at the 25th week of pregnancy

An impressive size belly and intrauterine activity of the baby should not embarrass you, and even more so be an obstacle for intimate relationships with the spouse.

Physicians consider sex at the 25th week of pregnancy useful, if there are no obstetric contraindications. Choose a sparing position, exclude a deep introduction of the penis and sudden movements. Intimate closeness will give bright, unforgettable moments of happiness. Remember that the behavior of parents is adopted by the child, who feels the emotional state of the mother.

Most of the way is already passed, the husband is accustomed to the new appearance of his wife, and to achieve sexual harmony can be, showing attention to the physiological and mental needs of its second half. Patience, tenderness and awareness that physical love never learns to be late will help to get even closer to the couple. It is not superfluous to be dexterity and flight of fantasy, not passing beyond the reasonable in your interesting position. Experiment and do not deny yourself carnal pleasures.

Sex at the 26th week of pregnancy

The twenty-sixth week of gestation is the second week of the third trimester. The norm is considered painless contractions of the uterus, which are associated with an increase in its size and training fights. Some women experience increased secretion of the genital area, due to the formation of a plug from the mucus.

The softening effect of hormones causes pain in the lower back and other parts of the back. Excessive strain is experienced by joints, ligamentous apparatus, headaches and seizures may appear. Improve the condition will help rest in a well ventilated room.

A favorable effect on the female body and developing baby has sex at 26 weeks of pregnancy. Physical intimacy increases mood, relieves psychoemotional tension. In the pelvic region of the gestation period, blood flow increases, which reflects on the sensory perception of the future mother. Enjoy intimate affinity, not forgetting about caution, excluding positions with pressure on the stomach. Sex should not cause painful sensations, long contractions of the uterine walls after it.

Sex at the 27th week of pregnancy

The medical ban on sex at the 27th week of pregnancy is associated in most cases with an increased uterine tone. It is important for future parents to understand that the taboo applies to any actions that contribute to orgasmic contraction of the uterus.

If there is no risk of interruption of pregnancy and women's health is normal, sex during pregnancy is a necessary part of married life. Despite the fact that the tummy has a rather impressive size, and most sexual poses are uncomfortable and dangerous, physical contact brings the couple together and gives a lot of extraordinary, exciting moments. Intimate intimacy during pregnancy is devoid of violent manifestations of passion, but is filled with tenderness and mutual concern.

It is absolutely undesirable during this period to change the sexual partner, of course everything is in life, but female microflora is especially sensitive to changes. Such changes can cause an infectious disease, as changing the "habitual" environment can provoke the rejection of new microorganisms by the female body.

Sex at the 28th week of pregnancy

The twenty-eighth midwinter week of gestation coincides with the seventh month. A future mother may be troubled by pain in the back and under the ribs, cramps, swelling. So the sexual attraction of some women goes to a recession, while others remain unchanged due to well-being.

Sex at the 28th week of pregnancy is possible in the absence of a threat of miscarriage and the desire of a woman. The child's intimate closeness of parents will not bring harm, but on the contrary, he will give positive emotions. A future mother may feel some stiffness in movements due to a large tummy, so the choice should be stopped in a comfortable position, which does not increase tension in the lumbar (avoid bends) and sparing against the abdomen. Use pillows, rollers to create a favorable environment on the matrimonial bed.

A woman should pay attention to her feelings to avoid discomfort and pain. Presence of incessant contractions of the uterus after sexual intercourse and smearing discharge from the vagina, require treatment to a specialist.

Sex at 8 months of pregnancy

Huge size belly, shortness of breath, discomfort during sleep, frequent urination, digestive system disorders - these are the common problems of the penultimate month of pregnancy. Few women in the state of growing stress on the body are thinking about intimacy. Future mothers often have fears of childbirth, physical and emotional fatigue. In this period, preparatory fights are increasing.

Sex on the 8th month of pregnancy is resolved individually by the gynecologist, if there are no obstetric pathologies, and parents expect one kid, and not twins. Prohibition is possible with: bleeding of unidentified etiology, placenta previa, separation of the child's place, deformation of the membranes.

Relevant may be substitutive forms of sexual contact: oral sex, sexual contact between the woman's hip joints or between the mammary glands. The latter option is considered rather pleasant, since the female breast becomes as elastic and sensitive as possible, it allows additional oral or manual stimulation. Naturally, the lask of the breast should be discarded with her soreness, the existing threat of miscarriage.

Sex at the 29th week of pregnancy

The beginning of the eighth midwinter month falls on the 29th week of gestation. The baby in the womb not only distinguishes tastes, smells and sounds, catches light and accurately determines the mother's mood, but is also capable of visual concentration. The kid has already grown significantly, so he can hardly afford to tumble and actively turn around, because of the limited space he is left with kicks or jerks. Pregnant women can perceive them in the form of lack of air, pain. In expectant mothers, metabolic processes are intensified, dizziness, pressure jumps and fatigue are possible. The body begins to prepare for the main event - the birth, and so there is a softening and divergence of the pelvic bones, accompanied by discomfort, sometimes with pain.

Female libido can also undergo changes. The proximity of labor, change in physiological processes often reduces sexual desire. According to doctors, sex at the 29th week of pregnancy is favorable in the absence of gynecological interdictions, late toxicosis and other ailments in the future mother. If your desire remains at the same level, then you must choose a gentle intimate position without pressure on the stomach and excessive intromission. For the love of the physical is more suitable day time, when the level of female fatigue did not reach the maximum mark. In the rest, rely on your own feelings, as well as the recommendations of an obstetrician.

Sex at 30 week of pregnancy

Proportional changes in the female body during the thirtieth week of pregnancy switch the male perception from erotic to a deeper level. The husband, willingly or unwittingly, senses the mystical destiny of the woman, connected with bringing a new life.

The cervix acquires a loosened structure, which makes it sensitive to mechanical damage. This can be indicated spotting spotting type, appearing after sexual intercourse. During the process of exacerbation, the blood flow in the pelvic area increases, and the mucous membrane itself seals off with frictions. An appeal to a gynecologist will not be superfluous, although it's not worth worrying about. The reason for the excitement will be ongoing uterine contractions, pain, bleeding.

But still some couples remain sexually active until the very birth. Sex at the 30th week of pregnancy is characterized by caution, tenderness in the manifestations of physical feelings. Most poses will not be available to spouses because of a solid tummy, the impossibility of a future mother to show past activity.

Sex after 30 weeks of pregnancy

The closer the moment of appearance of the baby to the light, the more the mental state of the spouses changes. Reduction of libido in a woman is due not only to changes at the physical level, but to thoughts about the impending birth, especially if they are the first. The man is also experiencing an upcoming event. Future parents "include" new programs for the meeting, development and upbringing of the child. The nature is harmoniously laid and thought out, therefore the revision of one's duties and life roles, often muffle the intimate attraction in a couple approaching a meeting with the baby.

So sex after 30 weeks of pregnancy in some families receded into the background, giving way to everyday trifles - the last preparations of the children's room, the purchase of necessary things, budget planning, etc. Obstetric reasons for refusing physical closeness will be: the threat of miscarriage, pathology of the placenta, inflammatory diseases of the genital area, multiple pregnancies.

Only a small percentage of couples practice sex during pregnancy at the end of the term. In this case, gynecologists strongly recommend using a condom to avoid the contractile activity of the uterus and its softening. Future parents should also inquire about the possibility of a woman achieving orgasm. The fact is that orgasmic contraction promotes the appearance of fights due to the production of oxytocin.

Sex at 31 weeks of pregnancy

Late gestation makes sex impossible at 31 weeks of gestation due to emotional and physical changes in the female body. Wearing a baby becomes even more difficult: the shortage of air on inspiration, the sweating intensifies, the expectant mother throws into fever, and during sleep favorite poses are impossible. The digestive system presents surprises in the form of heartburn, constipation, bloating. The woman feels her clumsiness, some helplessness. The condition is aggravated by cramps, increased swelling, pain in the joints and pelvic bones. Such discomforts and the approach of labor, as evidenced by preparatory labor, dramatically reduce sexual desire.

However, if the future mother does not have health problems, then she can lead an intimate life without fear of harming the baby. Spouses should adhere to smooth movements, excluding deep penetration. The most convenient position is the lateral position of the partner, facing his partner. In this case, there is no pressure on the abdomen, and the woman does not undergo physical exertion. Cushions under the belly or thigh will be appropriate.

Sex at 32 week of pregnancy

The normal course of pregnancy and the well-being of the expectant mother do not interfere with the sexual life of the spouses. It may be necessary to switch to techniques that give pleasure to partners, but do not lead to an orgasm in a woman. At the peak of excitement, the female body produces a hormone oxytocin, softening the cervix and causing labor. To the fact, male sperm contains a prostaglandin hormone, which causes such action, so it is advisable to use a condom. Sex at 32 weeks of pregnancy in the absence of obstetrical prohibitions will require the spouses to recall the whole arsenal of caresses - from a gentle touch to gentle embraces and passionate kisses.

According to experts, if the time of delivery is not approached, then no orgasmic contraction of the uterus will not lead to labor. However, the closer the happy moment, the greater the probability of causing contractions during sexual intercourse. Stimulation of the nipple also promotes uterine contraction. All this should be taken into account by future parents who are sexually active during late gestation.

Sex at 9 months of pregnancy

Most future parents do not even think about sexual intercourse on the eve of a momentous event. Most often they are controlled by the fear of harming the baby, but other reasons play an important role: 

• stiffness, restrictions in the movement of women due to a huge belly; 
• the possibility of discomfort, even painful sensations, when a woman has sex; 
• Women's worries about the upcoming labor activity nullify the sexual desire.

In cases where a gynecologist has allowed sex at 9 months of pregnancy, then it brings a lot of positive points. The production of a hormone of happiness and the training of the uterus before giving birth is beneficial for the mother and baby. Sex is also a natural stimulation of childbirth. Prostaglandins, available in sperm, soften the uterus and help it to open up better in childbirth.

Orgasmic contraction of the uterus at the peak of love affinity and a short time after it does not accelerate the birth process. However, a woman should give up orgasm several weeks before the forthcoming birth.

Sex in the last month of pregnancy is possible in the position on the side or on the knees. Doctors do not recommend resort to cunnilingus to prevent air from entering the vagina and the blood system.

Sex at week 33 of pregnancy

If the results of the surveys indicate that pregnancy does not threaten anything, then the refusal of physical affinity can be only on the unwillingness of the future mother. Sex at week 33 of pregnancy should have a favorable physical and emotional effect on the woman. Poor health, mental instability may require temporary abstinence from the spouse. In some pairs, it is the man who initiates the interruption of sexual intercourse due to fear of harming the baby. A significant increase in the abdomen, excessive activity of the child in the maternal womb is the reason for reinsurance. To dispel fears the obstetrician-gynecologist will help, and to reach sexual harmony alternative forms of physical affinity.

Medical recommendations at the end of bearing concern, as a rule, the use of a condom, the refusal to stimulate the nipples, restrict or prohibit an orgasm in a woman. From the available positions, only the penetration from behind is left, when the partners lie on their side. A woman is important to monitor her own feelings, avoiding pain and increased stress.

Sex at 34 weeks of pregnancy

Doctors recommend to wait with an intimate relationship at the end of the gestation. At the stage of genital preparation, genital tracts are the most sensitive to any kind of infection. Sex at 34 weeks of pregnancy is undesirable, since it can promote a baby's upheaval in the womb and a change in diligence. Do not also overload the uterus with excess blood and cause its contractions during this period. In addition to the mechanical effect on the cervix, which provokes an excretory type of secretion, sex causes the production of the female hormone oxytocin and, as a result, labor activity.

If future parents have a need and a mutual consent to intimacy, the best solution will be alternative ways of obtaining physical pleasure, for example: 

• "Vestibulym vulvae" (vestibular coitus) - carrying out of sexual intercourse at the level of vestibule vestibule, without deep penetration, with the help of women's hip joints; 
• "Coitus intra femora" - contact between femoral femora, without penetration; 
• "Coitus intra mammae" - between mammary glands (may be undesirable, as stimulation of the nipples causes a uterine contraction).

Sex at 35 weeks of pregnancy

Most of the future mothers do not even think of intimacy at the 35th week of gestation. If you feel wonderful, and the attraction to the spouse has not changed at all, then doctors do not prohibit sex during pregnancy at a late period.

The spouse should be more attentive to his half, so as not to cause uncomfortable sensations. Of course, the poses will be "restrained" because of the impressive size of the abdomen, but this does not prevent partners from surrendering to tender feelings. Concerning the use of a condom, some doctors consider it mandatory (because the seminal fluid softens the cervix), others note the presence of allergic reactions and relapses in the balance of the vaginal microflora. Therefore, if you and your partner have no infections of the genital tract, then you can do without this contraceptive.

Taboo on sex at 35 weeks of pregnancy is concerned with the risk of premature labor, placental problems, multiple pregnancy, and cases of pain during frictions.

Sex at 36 weeks of pregnancy

Approximation of the moment of childbirth can make a woman unnecessarily irritable, even capricious. Experiences fill all thoughts of the future mother. The state reflects the general fatigue: awkward gait, heaviness of the abdomen - all this exhausts and pushes intimate intimacy into the background. The softening of the pelvic bones continues, causing discomfort and pain in the pubic region, lower back and lower abdomen. Often during this period of gestation, swelling and hemorrhoids develop. The state of puffiness should be closely monitored, since they often serve as precursors of such complications as gestosis. Allocations can become more abundant and acquire a viscous consistency, which will indicate a gradual withdrawal of the mucous plug.

Sex at 36 weeks of pregnancy is not contraindicated, if there are no obstetrical injunctions. But orgasm provokes the uterine tone, which can speed up the labor activity. According to experts, this occurs only when the uterus is ready for delivery. A small number of couples practice sex until the end of the gestation period. All individually and depends on your desire, as well as well-being.

Sex at 37 weeks of pregnancy

The thirty-seventh week corresponds to the beginning of the tenth month for obstetric calculations. The proximity of childbirth is the main reason for refusing sexual intercourse. For some future parents, sex at the 37th week of pregnancy appears as a "three-way affinity", others decide on abstinence in terms of psychoemotional changes, or because of the difficulties in choosing a comfortable posture.

Gynecologists have a different opinion on sex during late pregnancy. Part of the midwives are absolutely against physical intimacy, as a way to accelerate the birth process, while others - welcome the sexual activity of parents to the birth itself. Therefore, if a woman does not feel discomfort or pain during intercourse, the integrity of the fetal bladder is not broken and there is no reason to suspect infection from one of the partners, then you can enjoy the love of the physical.

Detection of watery outflows is an occasion to stop sexual contacts. The amniotic fluid can go off in small portions, which indicates the onset of the birth process. Dense discharge from the vagina may indicate the passage of the mucous plug, which during the entire period of gestation protected the baby, blocking the pathogenic microorganisms. In this case, you should also abandon the intimate relationship and bathing in the bath.

Sex at the 38th week of pregnancy

At the thirty-eighth week of gestation, the stomach falls down, which greatly facilitates breathing and means an early meeting with the baby. Dullness of expectation may be lumbar pain, discomfort in the sacrum and calf muscles. At this stage of gestation, there are false bouts, for the identification of which from the real ones it is enough to change the position of the body or to be like. The future mother feels exhausted, in connection with which there is a decrease in libido.

It is quite an individual matter to have sex on the 38th week of pregnancy. For some couples, intimacy is not possible due to mental and physiological changes, but for others it remains the norm and a necessary part of family life. Physical intimacy helps the future mother to relax thanks to the hormones of joy. And increased circulation in the pelvic organs carries more oxygen in the placenta. Negative moment will be increased vulnerability of the epithelium of the cervix, seated at frictions. What confirm the appearance of bloody discharge after sexual intercourse.

Whatever it was, if intimate affinity brings pleasure, does not cause pain syndrome and has no contraindications at this stage of gestation, do not deny yourself the pleasure. Any concerns about sexual relations should be discussed with a gynecologist.

Sex at the 39th week of pregnancy

Not so long ago, sex six weeks before the birth was considered taboo. The thirty-ninth week is ideally the penultimate week of midwifery counting before labor. In turn, orgasm from a medical point of view causes uterine contractions and provokes premature birth. Now gynecologists are not so categorical and allow intimate intimacy right up to the very birth in an individual order.

Focusing on women's health and desire for sex at 39 weeks of pregnancy is possible provided that the fetal bladder maintains its integrity. Some future mothers do not even think about carnal love because of the accumulated fatigue, physical ailments. Others quite the contrary extremely need the gentle caresses of their spouse.

Medical representatives say that intimacy is the best, natural stimulation that prepares the opening of the cervix. In a number of countries, doctors recommend having sex during regular bouts to speed up and facilitate the birth process. The seminal fluid includes prostaglandin, a male hormone that exerts a softening effect on the cervical mucosa. Sex promotes the production of endorphins in the female body, which have an anesthetic effect.

Sex at 40 week of pregnancy

Only a small percentage of women have childbirth in the fortieth week of gestation. As a rule, labor activity occurs sooner or later. This is due to various deviations or incorrect calculation.

The precursors of the long-awaited event appear in a few days: frequent urge to empty the intestine and bladder, unstable emotional state of the future mother. Lowering the abdomen, pain in the sacrum, spasm of the inguinal zone - all this also indicates the approach of delivery.

Sex at the 40th week of pregnancy is considered as a preparatory stage, the main goal of which is to facilitate labor activity. Male hormones contained in the semen, soften the cervix, and orgasmic contraction of the uterine musculature under the influence of oxytocin provokes the onset of labor. Of course, the possibility of such stimulation should be discussed with an obstetrician-gynecologist in advance. The contractions after intimacy can be quite strong and lasting, which is not the norm for the baby. Future parents should remember that a similar action has a caress of the chest and nipples.

Sex at 41 weeks of gestation

After the fortieth week of gestation, obstetrician-gynecologists recommend practicing intimacy as a way to accelerate labor. Accurate sex at 41 weeks of pregnancy helps the cervix "mature". In the process of sexual arousal, the female body throws oxytocin into the bloodstream, provoking a uterine contraction. The same effect is observed from prostaglandin - a hormone contained in male sperm. In addition, mechanical action on the cervix leads to the production of hormones that promote its softening. All this in a complex causes good generic activity.

The beneficial effects of sex are known from obstetric sources of the XIX century. There was a custom when the husband performed sexual intercourse with his wife before the beginning of childbirth, thus showing the way for the baby. The doctors of those times were confident that, if the tradition was observed, the cervix of the uterus would be revealed easily, and the birth activity would not be weak. Whatever it was, the advisability of intercourse on the eve of childbirth should be consulted by your gynecologist.

Sex with multiple pregnancies

Pregnancy is called multiplane, when parents expect twins, triplets, etc. The duration of gestation on average includes 37 weeks. In the body of the future mother, all the same changes occur as in normal pregnancy, only with a doubled load. The symptomatology is stronger. For example, pressure on the internal organs is more pronounced. Under the influence of the growing uterus, the diaphragm is significantly displaced, as a result - the difficulty in the functioning of the cardiovascular system and the realization of respiration.

The female organism experiences a great strain when carrying twins or triplets, which in itself is fraught with various complications. Most often, multiple pregnancy ends with premature birth. If the bearing is remarkable, obstetricians-gynecologists still insist on the prohibition of sex in multiple pregnancies, starting from the 20th week of gestation. A future mother should monitor her health, avoid excessive weight gain and regularly visit a women's consultation.

Sex with pregnancy twins

The breeding of twins puts the future mother at risk with their own rules, increased attention and limitations. Under the taboo, sex comes with pregnancy twins, as a provocateur of premature labor. Oral stimulation can also be undesirable, as it causes contractile activity of the uterus and threatens miscarriage. It is very important to learn from a gynecologist about the possibility of orgasm for a woman.

In the case of an indispensable and prolonged abstinence, alternative forms of physical love will help maintain sexual harmony. For a man fit orogenital stimulation, the sexual intercourse between the hips of his wife (without penetration into the vagina) or between the breasts. From the caress of the mammary glands in some cases will have to be abandoned, as they provoke the contraction of the uterus and the beginning of premature birth. For the future mother there are tender strokes, kisses and care of a loving spouse. It will be necessary to be content with this in order to preserve the health of the kids and their own.

Sex on the last days of pregnancy

The approaching moment of childbirth transfers the attention of future parents from the erotic perception of their partner to everyday problems: arranging a place for a baby, buying everything necessary, last fees in the maternity hospital, etc.

If the sexual attraction in the pair is mutual and great, and also there are no obstetric contraindications, then sex on the last terms of pregnancy will bring a lot of pleasure to the spouses. The baby is comfortable in the tummy, he is reliably protected from external influences and cause harm to him in the process of intimacy is not possible. Positive emotions of the mother are transmitted to the child, and with orgasm, the pelvic organs become saturated with blood, due to which the baby gets more oxygen. To exercise physical contact from spouses care and attention will be required, as it is necessary to protect the stomach from the stresses and to make sure that the future mother is comfortable and not hurt.

Sex during pregnancy, suitable for logical completion, is prohibited if: 

• there is a threat of miscarriage; 
• there is an infectious disease of the genital area in one of the spouses; 
• a woman is familiar with the term miscarriage; 
• there is leakage of the amniotic fluid; 
• parents expect two or three kids; 
• there are violations in the placental fastening.

Sex in the last weeks of pregnancy

For a couple of weeks before the expected appearance of the baby in the world should refrain from intimate contact, since sexual intercourse can provoke premature contractions. During sexual stimulation, the woman develops a hormone stimulant of uterine contractions - oxytocin, a similar effect is exerted by the hormone prostaglandin, which is in the seminal fluid. In addition, the mechanical action on the cervix leads to the formation of hormones that soften it.

Interestingly, this fact is used by doctors, recommending that a woman with an immature cervix of the uterus on the eve of childbirth gently work out love with her husband. As a result, the uterus is completely ready for labor. Obstetrical practice knew the custom when the husband before the birth or at the beginning of the fights was engaged with the wife with love. It was believed that by this action the man showed the baby the way, and the doctors were sure that after the intercourse the cervix opens up better and the labor can not be weak.

In addition, sex in the last weeks of pregnancy stimulates utero-placental current, which is certainly beneficial for the baby, and endorphins are a natural pain killer.

Sexual intimacy is not allowed if the amniotic fluid has passed away. The presence of bloody discharge during or after sex means contacting a doctor.

Sex in Late Pregnancy

By the end of bearing, the female libido can decrease, due to a significant weight gain, discomfort with some movements and fear of harming the baby. Late toxicosis and a sense of unattractiveness increase the reluctance of intimacy in a woman.

Of course, the impressive size of the stomach makes the future mother clumsy and clumsy, but it is not an excuse for refusing physical intimacy. On the contrary, the married forms of the spouse become attractive to the husband. Therefore, the normal course of gestation, the well-being of a woman and the desire to make sex possible in later pregnancy. In choosing the intimate poses, spouses should be guided by the sensations of the future mother. It is very important to exclude positions with pressure on the abdomen, causing discomfort and pain to a woman. Most often, couples practice pose on their side during this period, placing pillows under the belly or thigh.

In later terms, sex during pregnancy is necessary, as a way of training the muscles before the forthcoming birth. In the process of physical proximity, a hormone of happiness is produced that has a beneficial effect on the health and mood of the future mother, and hence the baby.

Sex with a threat of pregnancy

The presence of a threat of interruption of gestation means a risk of miscarriage or fading pregnancy. And the threat can arise at any time, without good reason. The greatest danger is the first trimester, and at the end of gestation, the threat is called premature birth.

The factors that cause the diagnosis of a threat of pregnancy disruption are: 

• pathology of the structure of reproductive organs; 
• hormonal imbalance; 
• deviations of genetic character; 
• infection of the genital area; 
• isthmic-cervical insufficiency, provoking the opening of the cervix.

The first signs of spontaneous abortion: 

• bloody or brownish, smearing discharge from the vagina, regardless of the abundance; 
• nausea; 
• low temperature; 
• pain syndrome of the lower abdomen; 
• dizziness or loss of consciousness.

Pregnant women with a threat of miscarriage are prescribed strict bed rest and restriction of any activity. Sex with a threat of pregnancy is prohibited. Under the taboo fall oral sex, stimulation of the nipples and ways of self-satisfaction. Orgasmic contraction of the uterus can lead to hypertonia and provoke a miscarriage. Remove the ban on intimate intimacy can only the doctor on the basis of the analysis and examination.

Sex during pregnancy is not only a way of physical satisfaction and emotional relaxation, but an opportunity to discover new facets of perception of one's half, to show tenderness and mutual love.
