Can I Have Sex During Pregnancy

In the olden days, it was a taboo for a woman with pregnancy to engage herself in sexual activities. The reason is no other thing than the baby maybe hurt or that the pregnancy maybe tampered with. All these are old women’s feeble.

In the world today, sex during pregnancy is well accepted and contains low risk behaviour except when the doctor advised that sex should be avoided and that is in some pregnancy not all as it may cause pregnancy complications such as ruptured uterus or premature labour, which may come up due to difficulties in the previous child birth.

The reason why sex is necessary during pregnancy is because it is one of the symptoms that increase between 6 and 8 months or pregnancy most especially when some hormonal changes and physical discomforts such as nausea disappear.

In any pregnancy, women with love making partner or couples should continue to have sex so that they will be emotionally coordinated and confident of their appearance. Apart from being confidence of your appearance, having sex will also help you to have painless and quickened labour in the sense that sex during pregnancy is part of pelvic exercise that helps to pave way for the baby to come out without no much hitches.

Furthermore, when your pregnancy is normal, sex is considered normal in all stages, normal in the sense that there is low risk of complications such as premature labour, miscarriage. In case you are not sure of your pregnancy category contact your doctor.

In the case of high risk of complication, you and your partner have to be open to each other and talk about other means or ways whereby you can satisfy each other such as kissing, holding hands, caressing etc and also try other positions to know the most comfortable one to use.
