Did you know that many people keep having sex during pregnancy, even when their amniotic fluid ruptures or when they start labor?
Most healthy pregnant women can continue having sex during pregnancy until labor. However, in some cases, you will have to say no to sex during a certain period of pregnancy.
Your midwives or doctor will tell you if you have had or are at risk of any complications that are not allowed to have sex. If you are still concerned, please consult the experts on this matter.
Relationships during pregnancy affect the baby?
"Sex" will not cause any effect on the fetus. The amniotic sac and uterine muscles will protect the baby, and the thick mucus covers the cervix to help protect the baby from infection. During sex, the penis stays in the vaginal area, so the fetus will not be affected.
Relationship during pregnancy can cause early labor?
Having sex will not make you go into labor early if your pregnancy is healthy. Arousal and pleasure will not put you into labor or risk a miscarriage. Although at the 'peak', the uterus may contract slightly (stimulation of the "double mountain" and prostaglandins in the semen can also cause these contractions), they usually only last for a long time. short and harmless.
Many women report that having sex during pregnancy gives them a different feeling than before. Some people feel more excited. Others feel less satisfied during a certain period or even during pregnancy. Stronger blood circulation to the pelvic area can cause pelvic congestion, which increases pleasure during sex. A lot of vaginal discharge and increased humidity are also good signs when having sex.
However, you may not like any changes in sex during this period, and pelvic congestion can make you uncomfortable. You may also feel mild abdominal pain or cramps during / after sex or orgasm.
You will feel your "twilight" stretch and become more sensitive, especially during your first trimester. Some women find this sensitivity a sign of initiating sex, while others do not think so and will not even let their partner touch their breasts.
Let your spouse know when you feel uncomfortable, even things that have become a habit between you two. If you feel excited but don't want to have sex, stroking, caressing, oral sex or masturbation may be the option for you.
Remember that there are also many ways to express intimacy between a husband and wife in addition to sex. If you don't feel like having sex or your doctor advised you not to, you can still show affection through hugging, kissing, and cuddling.
