Can You Have Sex During Pregnancy?

Some changes in the various trimesters of gestation are quite common:

• First quarter: changes in hormone levels typical of early pregnancy and also changes in the shape of your body can increase sexual desire or, conversely, can lower libido (for example due to normal first trimester annoyances such as nausea or tiredness).
• Second quarter: the belly is growing but it is still small enough to have sex comfortably, indeed the sexual desire in this phase increases in most women who experience a moment of great energy
• Third quarter: There are no contraindications to having sexual intercourse up to late pregnancy, unless your doctor specifically forbids it. Certainly the baby bump becomes more bulky and perhaps fatigue begins to prevail, decreasing the deso.

If you both want it and in the absence of contraindications from the doctor, it can be done, as long as you use some important precautions:

• use a lubricant;
• talk to your partner and stop if you feel pain or discomfort;
• do not have vaginal sex after anal sex so as not to transfer bacteria from one area to another.

It is not safe to have anal sex:

• if you have one low placenta (placenta previa): anal sex can damage the placenta if it covers all or part of the cervix,
• if you have the fissures: constipation is a common ailment in pregnancy and straining during bowel movement can promote the formation of fissures, small wounds that can then bleed during anal sex.
• if either one has one sexually transmitted disease, many of which can cause serious complications for a fetus.
