The question often arises as whether one can involve in sexual activities during pregnancy. This totally depends upon the persons involved. Couples should not hesitate on talking on this issue. The common rule is to follow ones desire and heart. It is totally safe to indulge in sexual activities during pregnancy. It can be carried on till one feels comfortable with it. There are many couples who indulge in sexual activities till the last days of pregnancy.

There are many important factors that should be kept in mind during intercourse specially when one is pregnant. Sex should be stopped if there is bleeding. One should be very careful about sexually transmitted diseases. Before indulging in such activities advice from the doctor should be taken.

If the doctor advices against having sex, then try to find out the main reason behind it. Does the doctor mean no intercourse? Try to find out from the doctor the actual period of abstaining from sex. Sometimes intercourse during the initial months is not advisable because there are some chances of bleeding. Sexual activities during that period should be totally avoided. This is only for the health of the foetus.

Many think that it is not at all possible to any sex when the belly is getting larger. But the belly should not come in between ones desires. A person can think of several different ways of having sex. Different positions can be easily tried.

Changing the missionary position during pregnancy can help a lot. If the woman positions herself on the top then she can have a total control of the situation and carry on with the activity as long as she is comfortable with it. She can control the movement and the penetration. Many prefer this position during their pregnancy. Some find the spooning position very comforting. As the man enters from behind there is no pressure on the abdominal part. The penetration is also shallow. This position can be carried out throughout pregnancy. If the woman positions herself on her hands and knees then she won’t feel pressure on her abdomen. But many find this position very uncomfortable as they find it difficult in holding their belly away from the bed.

One can indulge in sex even while lying side by side. The position can be tricky but on the other side very enjoyable. One has to put the keg up to allow enough space for the partner to penetrate. But during the last days of pregnancy this becomes tiring as it is uncomfortable for the woman to place both her legs far away from one another.

The positions that have been mentioned above gives room for stimulating the clitoris manually by any one of the partner. This increases chances of enjoyment. One can also use one’s creativity and find out what position is best suitable for them.
