Sex during pregnancy

[purplebeauty21]

Hi there .... i think it is because he is not very well informed about it. But there is absolutely no reason for u both not to have sex unless u have a history of miscarriages or bleeding etc then u would have to ask or advice from your doctor before having sex but other than that there is no way your baby can be harmed from sex. Im should be about 9 weeks pregnant on tuesday and my sex life has continued throughout with no problems. I also checked with the midwife who also informed me there was no danger at all of having sex.

Your best bet might be to take him to a scan with u or even better take him to the midwife or doctors appointment and ask them in front of him so then he can hear that its ok from them he may believe it then hun. I wish u the best of luck with this xx

We both have a very high sex drive but as I have had a few bleeds we have been advised to wait until 12 week scan - next week thank god! We have both found it difficult as we rarely go a day without sex and the other ways are nice but leaves us both wanting more! Will be very glad when we get the go ahead - no tv that night!

thanks for all your replies this is my first pregnancy so it's reassuring to know that sometimes men do freak out worrying about baby. It's his first pregnancy too. We had a good heart to heart and I didn't realise how much of all this was my hormones until we were watching a nature programme and I started bawling my eyes out at frogs having sex. Bfriend does find this quite amusing, I was very upset - like really upset - about the elephants too (not the sex but the rainforests being destroyed).

He admitted he's worried about sex (which I reassured him about) and also being a dad, being a good dad, he's nervous about parenting and doing it right. Maybe I jumped the gun a little, those mood swings caught up with me a little I think.

He offered to buy me some frogs since I got so emotional about them, I'm emotional about a lot of things though lol x

He even said that he had been worrying all day because I'd not been retching and he was concerned something might be wrong, he was strangely reassured when I nearly puked in his tomato soup later. lol pregnancy is a rollercoaster! x

Sometimes morning and night! I'm sure it's this sex ban that's making us irritable! Once the baby is here we will probably never bother having sex again! Xxx

Aww im glad u have both talked and yes those hormones can be a real pain. Its natural for u and your partner to worry about everything when your pregnant and yes it can be quite an emotional ride with mood swings and crying bouts. Sounds like its all normal and lol to the frog part xx

Awwwwwwww unfortunately it's a mental thing. It might be that he can't get past it in his mind.
To him, you are probably precious and fragile. That's how my Hubby felt too. I love love love sex and have a high libido. As soon as I showed at 13 weeks it was game over. As soon as I got a bump he wouldn't touch me. Only cuddled me.

Relax though. Don't stress about it

My Hubby described it this way when I called him out on the sex ban

"it's like someone has given me a cake to hold and not drop. I feel like you've got a cake too and we both have to be really carefully not to squish it" ?!??

P.s. Don't worry it doesn't last forever. Our lo is nearly 7 months now and we've just found out we're expecting again!
