Your Complete Guide to Pregnancy Sex
So you've been trying and trying and -- finally! -- those two tiny pink lines have appeared on the pregnancy test. After grilling your new ob about whether your baby is developing as expected, you probably have one more lingering question: Now that the deed is done, can you...um...still have sex?
Absolutely, obstetricians say. If your pregnancy is uncomplicated, and you feel up to it, you can dance in the sheets until your water breaks. "Men often feel a little ignored because everything is so centered on the baby, so we encourage couples to have sex because it helps keep them bonded," says Terry Hoffman, MD, an ob-gyn at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore.
Actually, sex may be more fun during pregnancy precisely because the pressure is off. If sex had begun to seem like a chore because you were working overtime to get pregnant, now it's all fun and games. And if you've spent most of your reproductive years trying not to get pregnant, well, you're out of the woods there too. "It was really freeing," says Michele, of San Francisco, mom to 8-month-old Kai. (Last names have been omitted throughout for privacy.) "My husband used to pull out or stop to put on a condom. Once I got pregnant, we didn't have that extra stress."

29 weeks prego and enjoy everything me and my boyfriend do.. altho most of the time im the one dat turns him down cause its uncomfortable but dont want to leave him out of it too much cause i dont want to drag him into another womans arms...
7/20/2011 06:52:37 PM Report AbuseI am only 22 weeks pregnant with my 4th child and I am freaking about gaining more weight. I just dont feel attractive!! My husband assures me that I am still a turn on especially being pregnant with his child... I just dont feel it, and this is only the begining. Its putting a REAL strain on our relationship, any advice??
6/16/2011 05:01:11 AM Report Abusewhy am i not attracted to my husband at all???i never used to be like this and ever since i got pregnant i am jus not wanting to be touched by him.i know its wrong and not fair to him but i dont know what to do,its ruining our relationship because i am not even sure if part of my pregnancy or not.i feel really bad and he doesnt understand as either do i.i love him i just dont feel the same attraction to him.whats wrong with me and what should i do!!!?????:(
6/8/2011 07:40:17 PM Report AbuseWhen my husband was able to get past his fears, and talked to our OB, we have all the other parts of intimacy and play, just not actual intercourse. It takes an open mind and communication, but it can be worked out. Hang in there ladies, you aren't alone.
5/14/2011 10:30:16 AM Report AbuseWhen I had to go on bed rest in week 18, my husband had no problem with the idea, he was wrestling with fears about hurting the baby, and we had been through a miscarriage, and he wouldn't even risk that again. The key to it all is...WE TALKED ABOUT IT :) It is so important. You can "take care of yourself", as can he, but the intimacy is sometimes lost and bonds of the relationship strained.
5/14/2011 10:30:01 AM Report AbuseI am 39 y/o and I am in week 32, with my second high risk pregnancy. This is my second child, but my husbands first. He is amazing about everything for this pregnancy, but the "not being able to have intercourse" part is the hardest for us. We are both extremely attracted to each other, but we can not have intercourse (advised by our OB) until baby is at least in week 38.
5/14/2011 10:28:58 AM Report Abuseac59702224 - I wouldn't end your relationship over this! You have to consider his feelings. Many men are scared to be intimate because they are afraid they will hurt the baby ( my husband was the first time). Please your self!
4/25/2011 12:21:13 PM Report AbuseWith my second being intimate put me into labor. I'm 36 weeks with my 3rd and scared it will happen again!

1/30/2011 08:23:13 PM Report AbuseJessicascasso - I have the same problem, I think it's an infection or something. Gonna ask my ob at my appointment about it... And I'm 36 weeks and with the pregnancy I hate sex, makes me sick!!!!! With my first one I wanted it all the time though!!!!!
12/28/2010 12:59:49 AM Report AbuseIm 19, 31 weeks pregnant and i love to have sex with my honey. Ever since i got pregnant he wants it more cause he has nuthing to worry about im already pregnant lol.So i like to tease him and get him all worked up and then act like i dont want it lol it drives him insane and makes him beg and makes me feel even more wanted. IDKY but even the thought of oral sex makes me sick to my stomach. it wasnt that way before I was pregnant.
12/21/2010 11:59:11 AM Report AbuseI'm almost 19 weeks pregnant, & me & my boyfriends sex life is amazing. sure sometimes it's a little uncomfortable, but we just re-position & carry on :) He smiles grandly every time he sees me in the nude, cheeses from ear to ear like a little school boy looking at his first playboy LOL! I don't know what it is about me being pregnant that he finds so attractive, but pregnancy has definitely spiced up both of ours sex drive. I've never felt sexier!!
12/17/2010 08:40:04 AM Report AbuseI love having sex with my husband while I am pregnant.I am 37 weeks and have embraced my big Buddah belly.I have fewer inhibitians and my husband loves my confidence and take charge attitude.Lately sex has become much more about being close together and taking things slowly because I find myself getting more and more tired.However we plan to be together as long as possible and to cherish every encounter we have before our time and energy wil be spent on our new arrival.
12/14/2010 04:27:36 AM Report AbuseSwallow while pregnant? Seriously? How disgusting to give your baby that for a meal.
12/14/2010 03:25:48 AM Report AbuseI am 36 weeks pregnant. My husband doesn't seem to want to have sex. I've tried to talk to him about it...is he scared or just not into me because I'm pregnant. He doesn't really give me an answer.Im leaning toward, not that into me. It makes me feel unwanted!!! So now, I just want to have her so we can have fun,wild sex like before!! Why are the men so sensitive about it? We are the ones gaining the weight, feeling crappy and bearing the children! Can't they give us what we want, when we want??
12/13/2010 06:33:21 PM Report Abuseim 16 and im 16weeks pregant and love 2 have sex with my wonderful boyfriend;)
12/13/2010 03:44:00 PM Report Abusewow!
12/4/2010 11:16:28 PM Report AbuseIm 36 weeks and all I want to do is have sex but my boyfriend think it make harm his precious little girl.
11/24/2010 08:34:30 PM Report Abusethere doesnt nessasarly have to be something wrong if it hurts to have sex pregnant. im 35 weeks and oddly sex just started feeling good again. for a little while it was hurting but its just because some positions were now uncomfortable etc. also make sure you go to the bathroom before you have sex. sometimes it would hurt me because he would be pushing on my bladder when we had sex.
11/16/2010 01:05:25 PM Report Abusejessicascasso- that means you have a urinary tract infection. you need to contact your doctor and get treated for it asap cause the infection can lead up to the baby. its in the 'your pregnancy week by week' book. i talked to my doctor and he said it should not be hurting when you have sex something could be wrong so have it checked out if it is hurting.
10/5/2010 01:30:49 PM Report Abuseim 25 and this is my first baby. im 10 weeks and i dont want to have sex AT ALL!! is that normal?? everything feels really different and when i do let my boyfriend get some, it doesnt feel good to me at all... will it change as i get further along???
9/21/2010 04:53:54 PM Report AbuseI am almost 8 months pregnant. Me and my husband may not have sex like we used to, but still enjoy it. It's good to have sex when pregnant; it makes delivery easier because of the kegal muscles staying active. I find the most pleasing position to both parties is spooning. Just be sure his hand is not on your tummy. Only because my daughter decided to move while my husband was touching my belly. He said it was a total mood killer!
9/4/2010 04:41:53 PM Report AbuseFeels like more of a chore than enjoyable. My hands, feet and legs stay swollen anymore. Definitely don't have an increased sex drive at all..... 22 weeks with #2
8/11/2010 12:03:35 PM Report Abusei enjoy sex wit my boyfriend but sometimes its not enjoyable cause we really don't have time for it n it hurts somethings too... oh btw i'm 31 weeks:-) expecting a little boy my prince!
8/6/2010 12:38:28 AM Report Abuseeagleracing: I hope u and baby are doing ok. Baby comes first. Do not let anything interfere with your childs right to have a safe and happy environment. If your husband cannot do that have him move elsewhere. Let him visit only when he is sober and behaving. If you love your husband you will not permit him to shame himself. Do not be afraid of taking control of this situation. You owe it to your child, who is powerless and deserves better.
8/3/2010 03:19:44 PM Report AbuseMy husband and I have amazing sex even though I'm 32 weeks pregnant.. he thinks I look hot still.. and when I question his honesty in that he just refers to the entire genre of pregnant erotic films.. It only freaks him out a little bit when he thinks I'm squishing the baby.. But as long as you're comfortable and can find positions that don't hurt.. Go for it! Enjoy while you can before you're too busy and tired to want it.
8/3/2010 04:00:22 AM Report Abusemy husband and i enjoy sex more even if im 19weeks pregnant ;) he still finds me sexy and hot (that's what he said) and i really think of sex a lot than i do before ;)
8/1/2010 08:19:55 PM Report Abuseim 35wks with my first and even though i dont feel sexy my fiance cant seem to get enough he loves it, i would enjoy it more but it seems to get painful sometimes and makes me worry
7/22/2010 12:10:38 AM Report Abusealot of people say that they had the best sex ever while they were pregnant, but i just can't get into it, i don't even get horney anymore and no matter what position we try it always hurts, i just cant do it and i dont know if thats normal or if there could be something wrong with me
7/18/2010 07:52:31 PM Report Abusespeaking personally, it just weirds me out when we are proceeding and he puts his hands on my stomach, i just cant seem to get into it, plus he has let himself go, so im finding im not attracted to him as i used to be.. i need advice
7/4/2010 09:59:13 AM Report AbuseLadies: Thank you so much for all your comments.. I just want to say "Lets be understanding with all the new challengespregnancy offer to us..however lets have fun with our love ones in bed and outside of bed."
6/29/2010 01:06:50 PM Report AbuseI had the best sex of mylife when I was pregnant. It was great. it was awesome
6/26/2010 12:50:54 PM Report Abuseeagleracing12x: I stuck with my man for 10 years and was miserable. I got him to 1 counseling appt. Once he found out they wanted to test him for BPD he wouldn't go back. I was the one who needed to "make myself happy". I coudln't even have a nightlight on while I nursed cause it woke him. I worked 40-70 a week while pregnant with our second child while he smoked pot and babysat our first one. He cheated on me while I supported him in school & he hated me working. It didn't get better just worse
6/25/2010 01:20:53 PM Report Abuseguuys am kerianne and im 17 preganant with my first which im 13 weeks , still with ma man been with him 1 year and am glad hes still with me , a don't no what a would do without his support , im just scared a don't no what todo you guuys got any advice ? , hope your all well , write back
6/23/2010 06:20:27 AM Report Abuse@eagleracing12x: I was in a relationship just like yours for 5 years, he will never change not even after the baby comes it will only get worse, I wish i would have left sooner and I never told my family any thing until after I left I wish i did tell them sooner. I felt like I couldnt leave because I didnt think I could raise my baby without him but it was so much easier without him than it was with him I was alot happier and less stressed. I'm sure you know you should leave,COURAGE!
6/21/2010 10:15:42 PM Report AbuseI'm pregnate with my second child and my husband doesn't want sex at all right now, but he didn't really when I was pregnate with our first child. and I want it all the time, sometimes it makes me feel like he's getting it somewhere eles but I really do know better than that hes just scared. I guess its just my hormones getting the best of me. so my trick is to wake him up first thing in the morning my "special way" and he has no choice but to follow my lead, it makes both of us feel better!
6/21/2010 04:30:33 PM Report AbuseTo eagleracing12x CONT'D His drinking is an excuse, don't accept it! If you're carrying a precious little girl you don't want her to think it's ok for other men to treat her that way and if you're carrying a world changing boy, you don't want him to treat women that way.I can't imagine how life would be raising your child without your husband but you have to ask yourself will it be any better with him being there. Best of luck to you, I hope it all works out for the best.
6/21/2010 11:33:31 AM Report AbuseTo: eagleracing12x Nothing is going to change. His verbal abuse will only increase with the baby because he is no longer the center of your attention. Leaving him is a decision that ONLY you can make, you have to live with the results, no one else. In my opinion, you have to ask yourself, do you want your child in an disturbed environment? Do you want your child to grow up thinking it's ok for daddy to call mommy names? Do you want the verbal to escalate to physical abuse???
6/21/2010 11:29:19 AM Report AbuseIm now 28 weeks pregnant and have been with my fiance for 4 1/2 years and he worked up until we moved to va to be with his family up there 2 months never looked for a job...at this pt i had just found out i was pregnant.. then isuggested moving back to fl maybe try for his old job and it was'nt working out there now @ 28 weeks still no job he thinks he has to have some grand job making alot of money but since we moved from va we havent lived together i want a place together: suggestions?
6/21/2010 10:13:37 AM Report Abusealso along with what i wrote, i've also noticed he has a little bipolar in him. One of the reasons i came back, was i told him he had to go see a doctor along with no more drinking. Drinkin causes him to be very verbal you might say. I don't want to split up my new family, but I have to think of my lil one. My family doesn't know what goes on here, if they did they would move me back and not even give my hubby a chance...so i really don't know what to do, stay or after baby is born leave?
6/17/2010 12:11:50 PM Report AbuseI'm 30 weeks pregnant. I had to go out of state for my baby shower cause my family lives over 8 hours away, i was only gone for 10 days... i was told by doctors that i could not have any children because of my cervical cancer....anyway, while i was gone, 2 days before i was to be back on the road to come home, my hubby called me to tell me i was a lying, cheating whore...i had no choice but to come back cause of my doc apts, etc...should i try to save my marriage?
6/17/2010 12:06:01 PM Report Abusei agree. My husband is not the stay home type, I'm 27 weeks along with our first baby and we very recently got married. Since pregnancy makes things all about you for a while, maybe he feels a little neglected. Talk to him about how he's feeling and if the situation calls for it lay down the law. Its his job now to take care of you and your family, and he has to step up. Find some time after you talk about it, to do something really special together and the magic will come back. :)communicate.
6/15/2010 10:03:10 AM Report Abuse@maryslove19 It sounds like you are in a sticky situation. maybe he just needs a good talking to? he could be nervous about the new pregnancy and finances. I would just talk to him and ask him what he is feeling. It doesnt sound like he is treating you very well right now, but its worth a shot to talk to him and see what his problem is. If things get worse you could even try counseling together to see if that helps. But I wouldnt let him talk to you like that. I hope things get better for you.
6/7/2010 06:50:48 AM Report AbuseI am in the prosess of making my second baby. i crave sex like crazy but me and my fiance arent in the best of terms lately and honestly its making us both not want it. my body wants it though if that makes sence. im in a sticky situation all together but hangin in. kind of hard when your pregnant. hes a stay at home daddy and i work a lot. hes starting to turn into alcoholic and not clen cook or nothing. then asks me why i dont do crap, huh some nerve he has. any advise ladies.... help!
6/6/2010 02:11:09 PM Report AbuseI am 33 weeks pregnant with my 4th baby and I want to have sex all the time but by the time my husband gets off work and I'm done cleaning the house and taking care of our kids I am to tired to have sex. My husband can go days and days without it but when he is ready and I don't want to he tells me it's ok we can try to later. But when I want it and he may be to tired I get really mad at him. Does anyone know what I can do to help our sex increase or be more appealing about sex.
6/4/2010 08:46:38 PM Report AbuseIm 35 weeks pregnant now.And it seems like the last week or so my sex drive has been higher than ever before.Sometimes I dont feel too sexy or dont have the energy anymore, and I completely agree with iluvkjra's comment, guys take whatever they can get when you're pregnant.This is my guys 1st child, but my 3rd so everything's new to him.But as long as we communicate with each other about any issues we have, especially sex, we stay happy.
6/1/2010 06:52:21 PM Report Abuseits a good idea....unelss it hurts. this is my third baby and it seams like everytime we learn new things and enjoy each others sex more then before! it lets them no they just arnt hear for babies. lol
6/1/2010 12:55:40 PM Report Abuseim 25 weeks pregnant i have the most craziest dreams some consisting of peanut butter and jelly sandwitches, and some more WEIRD things i just DONT want to remember but i have woken up my hubby in the middle of the night to have some funnn
5/12/2010 10:00:00 AM Report AbuseSex with the man that helped you conceive your child is a wonderful feeling. Compromising is the key word! On both Ends. He enjoys it because i am more wet than ever. I enjoy it because i get to be in control with the positioning without him even realizing it at times just as long as we are both satisfied and he is knocked out after that makes me feel great because he is relaxed and getting a great rest as well as myself. Sometimes i want more but i wait patiently until the next go round!
4/27/2010 05:14:57 AM Report Abusei dont think that its healty to neglect your man. sometimes its easier to get started and then you will end up getting more into it. i have had sex my entire pregnancy and sometimes i do it for me and sometimes i do it for him. it helps me fall asleep more now than ever and feels way different now than it ever did.get out the KY and it makes all the difference.
4/26/2010 11:18:59 AM Report AbuseMy husband and I are on our fifth pregnancy together. We've learned a lot, especially about sex and pregnancy.. i was just reading some of these comments to him and he said remember ladies, guys would be happy with anything you want to offer.Just to touch you and they can use their imaginations.Dont forget ky jelly really.really helps with any dryness. He also wanted to remind us that even when we dont like we look sexy anymore, doesnt mean your husband doesnt think your still sexy woman alive
4/23/2010 07:24:48 AM Report Abusein my first trimester, sex was normal between my hubby & i, though most times i feel so weak when i wake up in the morning, atimes with pain in my lower abdomen. this is my 3rd baby, & im about 20 weeks. now, i dont feel like having sex at all, my husband wants it. how can i help him? -bibi
4/22/2010 04:41:48 AM Report AbuseI think that if your significant other can't go masterbate if you are not in the mood because you are carrying his child then you should get a new significant other. Sex is better when both parties want it. Not when you have to do it because he is "your Man?" I think that no matter how you feel about sex it is normal and you should do what feels right to you. Your partner should understand either way.
4/21/2010 02:34:22 PM Report AbuseI'm also 26 and having my 5th child. I don't want sex. My I make my self have sex with him. I feel so dry and it seams to hurt some time. He wants more but its a turn off. I don't know what to do?? He even asking for oral but just the thought makes me sick.. I'm going crazy
4/19/2010 12:08:21 AM Report AbuseIM 16 WEEKS AND MY BOYFRIEND LOVES TO HAVE SEX WIT ME EVEN WHEN I DO NOT WANT TO HE MAKES ME THINK ABOUT THAT ITS GOODFOR GREAT LABOR AND FEEDIN THE BABY MOST OF THE TIME IS ALSO GRAET TO EVEN WHEN I DO NOT WANT TO I GIVE IT UP CAUSE THAT IS MY MAN AND WHAT EVER HE WANTS HE GETS NO MATTER WHAT IS SAFE AND BETTER FOR MY LABOR BELIEVE IT OR NOT
4/11/2010 10:05:20 AM Report AbuseMy fiance is 36 weeks. Even though she might not be wanting to have sex some times she gives me oral sex to keep me satisfied. Hopefully that will answer some of the what can I do's!
4/10/2010 12:59:43 PM Report AbuseIf you love your man then you need to tend to his needs too. My fiancee and I always find ways to satisfy each other even tho the other might not be wanting sex I think we all knwo that sex keeps the relationship healthy. Men tend to wounder and look other places if there not getting it at the house.
4/10/2010 12:53:19 PM Report Abuse@LID_7500 I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT IS.. I AM ALSO HAVING MY 5TH CHILD AND I'M IN MY 5TH MONTH BUT I DON'T HAVE DESIRES TO HAVE SEX EITHER. I DON'T KNOW WHAT I CAN DO FOR MY HUSBAND
3/17/2010 06:57:38 PM Report AbuseI'm 26 weeks and my husband wants to have sex but I don't have any desire to have sex at all. I feel so bad for him. I don't want him to feel lonely. But I just haven't been feeling like having sex so far throughout this pregnancy. This is my 5th child and the first time ever I went through such a dry sex spell. :(
3/17/2010 02:14:00 PM Report AbuseI'm 29 week and my boyfriend and I don't have sex at all. I want to but I don't think he's interested anymore. What's a girl to do?

3/10/2010 11:50:43 AM Report AbuseI am 26 weeks, and I do have an increased sex drive. The only problem is my husband is deployed in Iraq. Oh boy does it suck! This happened with our first daughter too. He was gone while I was pregnant with her, and gone while Im pregnant this time with our second daughter. I have no idea what its like to have sex when your really pregnant. The last time I had sex I was only 6 weeks along. My life is sad..lol
3/8/2010 01:13:58 PM Report AbuseIm 25weeks and i love it.i like it better now than i did with my other 2 kids. i have 2 boys and this one is a girl. i found my self wanting it allday every day i would just take it, and get mad when i dont get it. LOL

I love it though... more sex... its awesome... I feel like I am still beautiful and appreciated when we have sex... and the more the better!
2/28/2010 11:19:58 AM Report Abusel'm 17 weeks now l dont enjoy sex
2/26/2010 08:41:44 AM Report AbuseI'm 30wks pregnant and I enjoy sex with my husband every-time we do it. If we're into a certain position that seems to trigger something uncomfortable for me, he gently switches up positions and really takes his time to make sure I'm comfortable and enjoying myself just as much as he is. I really thought I'd loose my sex drive b/c I'm getting bigger and at times I feel ugly/fat. But he enjoys every inch of body as if I didn't have a huge tummy. I'm truly blessed to have the man that I do!
2/25/2010 12:12:10 PM Report AbuseI'm 9 weeks and basically haveing sex makes my stomack hurt and i dont realy want to have intercores any more and my hubby thinks lol im haveing an affarr an affarr with what the frying pan lol
2/23/2010 04:15:09 PM Report AbuseI enjoy sex alot now... I feel more close to my significant other now than I ever have bofore. I want it all the time but I am afraid that he will think I am some kind of sex maniac. He is also younger than me and I feel uncomfortable to talk to him about some stuff because this pregnancy is sort of a surprise for both of us. And also I am feeling like he will find me un=attractive these days... What do I do ladies any advice
2/22/2010 01:31:33 PM Report AbuseIM 30 WEEKS AND ME AND THE HUBBY HAVE SEX EVERY DAY. I LOVE IT AND HE GOES SO SLOW IT MAKES IT EVEN BETTER....MUAH
2/18/2010 05:19:30 PM Report AbuseI'm about 29 weeks now and sex for me is very uncomfortable. It starts off great but once it really begins we have to change postions like twenty times and by the time I find a good postion im ready to go to sleep so i just let him finish. I'ts getting to the point were i don't even want to try any more. It really makes me sad:(
2/2/2010 01:13:08 AM Report AbuseWhere are the comments from women who have been restricted from sex and are having trouble with that? For whatever reason, I've wanted sex more than usual during this pregnancy, but at my last visit, I was told to stop. This is REALLY tough.
1/26/2010 07:04:31 PM Report AbuseI'm 29 weeks and sex is basically void in our marriage if i can help it :) It's very uncomfortable and what i used to like, annoys me now. This is our fifth child so we are comfortable to either not have it or do other things....most times, i feel sorry for him and just "help" him out :)

11/10/2009 11:27:17 AM Report AbuseI may be just being silly but I'm jealous of his hand. Its not fair home all day with a 5 year old and I can't exactly please myself doesn't seem right and I wait for him all day and then I find him doing for himself and it makes me cry I feel like I'm still not good enough.
11/10/2009 10:10:44 AM Report AbuseI want to have sex all the time with my boyfriend but sometimes in missionary it hurts and other times it doesn't. So we lay on our side and do it that way but although it feels great I rarely orgasm that way. Another thing is he seems to be masturbating more and that bothers me cause hes taking my sex time away from me although i am very emotional it hurts me when I catch him in the act specially when he knows I want to do it or if he just asked I'd be more then willing.

Or if you don't want to do that then show him online show him facts that it can't hurt you I'm 36 weeks along and my boyfriend and i have sex still and he was just as scared then he relaxed after reading facts about the plus side of having sex. I hope this help you!
10/22/2009 09:33:45 AM Report Abusejessicascasso~My i have had the same thing to help the soreness and burning use a lubrication. I have also asked my doctor and she said its just somethings a prego goes though! Don't worry about it unless you start to bleed.
10/22/2009 09:33:39 AM Report AbuseMy boyfriend won't have sex with me, because he says that he is scared and that he may hurt the baby and I'm 6 months pregnant.
10/19/2009 07:33:21 PM Report AbuseJessica, I am 15 weeks along, and I have had the same discomfort as you, soreness, burning, and a little irritability. My doctor told me that it could be Yeast Infection, and he said that the over-the-counter creams are 100% safe to use during pregnancy. I used Monistat 7 day treatment. I hope that helps;-)
