Other Normal Sex Positions During Pregnancy

Spooning is one of the most popular sex positions during the late stages of pregnancy. This position may seem uncomfortable during pregnancy because it keeps the weight off your belly and allows for only shallow penetration. You and your partner lie on your sides, with your partner behind you, facing your back.

Rear entry is affectionately known as "doggy style," is a favorite sex position of many women during pregnancy. This is because it allows for deeper penetration and also gives you the opportunity to support your stomach and breasts. You get on all fours and, using pillows, support your stomach and chest. Your partner then stands or kneels behind you, and enters from behind.

Many couples forget that sex can also be performed in a sitting position more especially during pregnancy. Get your partner to sit in a sturdy chair and then straddle him. This will keep any added pressure off of your stomach, and allows for a very intimate experience.

Furthermore, try lying down face-up on the edge of the bed, with your legs spread and the soles of your feet on the floor also is one of the best sex positions during pregnancy. Your partner can stand or bend over you. This position, however, does allow him to thrust more deeply, in this case you'll have to tell him how gentle and slow you want him to be.

Oral and anal sex during pregnancy is also good as long as proper precaution is adhered to. The use of condom is allowed during anal sex but should be gently to prevent tearing of any rectal tissues.

Conclusively, under normal circumstances, sex during pregnancy is good but if you find out that sex during pregnancy is uncomfortable to you, try other sexual gratifications (oral sex and masturbation).
