Congratulations on your pregnancy, yes it is common to find it uncomfortable having sex during pregnancy but there are things you can do to try and make it more comfortable for yourself, On the side is a good position as you get bigger, especially in your last trimester, there is many differant ways you could try to see if that helps make it more comfortable. When you have sex, your uterus and vagina contracts and it won't hurt your baby, I found on the side best with a pillow under your belly as support, aslo to be more stimulated. Good luck and I hope you get to enjoy your sexlife and pregnancy together as it can be a wonderful way to help your cervix dilate easier when it comes to labour. might make it easier on you.

I am 38 weeks and have just found having sex comfortable again
this is my third child and each pregnancy is different try experimenting with different positions and if that doesn't work leave it a couple of weeks and try again

my girlfriend finds it gets rid of the cramps, and seems to relax the baby - she's 39 weeks now.
Everyone is different tho. Perhaps your baba is feeling embarrassed and wants you to stop!
Keep trying and talk to your midwife. Sex should assist when you start having braxton hicks contractions - you'll have to read your book for a clever explanation.
Good luck!

I was fine when i was pregnant! I had to change into different positions to accomode by huge bump! Try lying on your side with your partner behind you also lying on his side. I found this the easiest way.
Good luck!

Your not alone sweetie!! Im 28 weeks and my labido has vanished! I tried the other night but yes it hurt me too, from what I have heard this is quite normal but I suppose everyone is different. Dont worry, your not the only one. You have my sympathy! (along with my my suffering other half).

Don't mean to be rude or crude but have you tried "doggy" style?
Takes the pressure off the belly etc.
Good Luck!

i think you need to talk this matter over with your partner babes.
alternative positions could be used or maybe your partner doesnt know its hurting you.
me and my wife had great sex all the way through our babies and
we both found it sensual etc

I found it really uncomfortable and afterwards I would have cramps accross my tummy. I think this was braxton hicks.
