Having Sex When Pregnant

It has been proven that pregnant women sometimes have bigger sexual appetites. This is because the hormones of pregnant women are more active than usual.

The husband may not have a problem about this but the doctor would. Initially, if your wife is undergoing vulnerable pregnancy, then the husband should stay celibate for nine months. No sexual intercourse is done during pregnancy for some women because of fatigue and pain. The mother's health may be put at risk because of these factors, thus the baby too.

If the expectant mother is healthy, and the husband is thinking of satisfying his and his wife's sexual needs, then you'd better consult your gynecologist first.

He would probably tell you to have sex in a position where there is less possibility of hurting both the mother and the womb. The man positions himself at the back of his wife, lying sideways. The husband can then enter his wife from behind. This position is called "spooning." The pregnant mother can also be on top so she can control the movement if the penetration is becoming painful for her.

If the sexual urge is insatiable during the weeks following the third month, try watching an adult movie together and touch and kiss each other on your sensitive areas. As much as possible, be careful not to hurt or tire out your wife while having sexual intercourse. The couple should make sacrifices in order to make sure their family's health.

Nine months of sacrifice will surely feel like a breeze once a baby is born.
