are you allowed a normal sex life - the first few months?

[doreend]

Wondering if one was to get pregnant or try anyhow fairly soon - are the bedroom activites allowed to continue as usual?
Alot to learn on the do's and don'ts as ye can see!
Thanks in advance, D.

It's probably best to wait until you see your doc and have a talk about it. Normally, if you have a low-risk pregnancy then having sex is perfectly fine. Some women are advised against having sex due to risks such as: placenta previa(a low-lying placenta), having a history of miscarriages or pre-term labor, among other things.

My DH and I continued having sex early on but I didn't enjoy it as much as I should have because I was paranoid and tense because I had a miscarriage a few months earlier.

We didn't stop having sex until recently when I've just been so tired it's been the last thing on my mind, but like AmberNicole says I'm having a low risk pregnancy.

It really comes down to how you and your partner feel about it - I figure if you're in the mood then why not!
