I am 11 weeks pregnant... and I asked the doctor. You can have sex... just make sure your careful... don't have to much weight on your tummy... or be pushing hard on it... other than that there is no reason... If there is a concern your doctor will let you know... Besides they say that sex is good during pregnancy.. it helps the baby feel close to the dad or something like that! Have fun... and enjoy! Being pregnant is suppose to make life suck... its suppose to be fun! If your lucky you'll be one of the people that your sex drive actually increases during pregnancy!
Good luck and congradulations!

Yes, you can have sex while you are pregnant. In fact some women say that they have had some of the best sex of their lives while pregnant. This is because of the surge of hormones your body produces while pregnant to help support your pregnancy. As a nurse, I would say that you should not have sex however during the last three months of your pregnancy because this can induce an early labor. Congratulations!

People can "always" have sex, and so have "all" types of sex. But it may not be wise, it may not be hygienic, it may be unhealthy, it may be a perversion, to have sex outside of the pure and glowing boiling natural terms of it.
Sex is not just entertainment. Once the woman has discovered that she is pregnant she must not allow the man to "touch" her sexually until some months after she has given birth. They may have to resort to some other kind of amusement with each other, to some other fanciful way of touching, caressing, each other.
Sex is not like drinking beer (and even drinking beer has health limits), and the world would be much better if people were more aware of this.
Good luck!

It is ok to have sex while you are pregnant as long as you are not classified as a having a high risk pregnancy. Sometimes a doctor will recommend that you do not have sex if you have had a miscarriage before or are having other complications. So as long as you are not having problems or as long as you do not have a history of a miscarriage, you should be just fine to have sex. Just to be safe though I would double check to make sure with your doctor.
Good luck and congratulations!!!

If there are no complications with your pregnancy (ie no bleeding or discomfort) then do what you feel is right for you and your partner. There is no reason why you have to stop having sex. If you have pain or bleeding after you should tell your midwife (even if it is one of the most embarrassing things you'll ever say!) and then she may reccomend you take things easy, but no complications then go for it, you wont get the time after baby arrives, I know!!!

Hi,
As far as I know it's recommended not to have sex if you've experienced bleeding or discomfort, otherwise it should be fine.
When I was pregnant I carried on a normal sex life - that was until bump got in the way!
If you have been told not to have sex by your GP then I would follow their advice.

who told you not to have sex? unless you are having trouble with the pregnancy there is no medical reason why you can't, you may have to try some different positions for comfort etc the more you grow and change shape. You may have to a bit more gentle if you are a little tender though.

It would depend on who told you not to....was it your doctor? If it was the doctor, I would definately listen and do what he says. Most people have sex comfortably well into their pregnancy. My sister had sex the day her son was born and no complications resulted. Different people have different complications and what works for one might not work for another. Ask your doctor is the best advice I can give you.

Sex is fine whilst you are pregnant. I would however say to hold back for the first 12 weeks if there is a history of complications such as miscarriage. If not, lie back and enjoy! We did!

of course you can have sex whilst pregnant there is no risk to your baby
unless of course either of you have an a STD which could be dangerous to your unborn child.
Theres nothing wrong with having a healthy sex life during pregnancy
