4 months pregnant sex position

The fourth month of pregnancy is the middle stage of pregnancy. Generally speaking, there is no problem with moderate sexual intercourse during the middle stage of pregnancy. However, when having sex, you must understand some sexual positions. Some of the positions that were commonly used before are best not to be used. Especially when having sex, you must avoid pressing on the pregnant woman's abdomen. It is best to use the rear entry method to avoid adverse effects on the fetus. Let’s take a look at this aspect.

4 months pregnant sex position

Posterior position: suitable for every stage of pregnancy. When the wife and husband lie sideways facing the same direction, it will not put pressure on the fetus, damage the vagina or cervix, or cause allergies.

Male stereoscopic position: suitable for the middle stage of pregnancy (4-6 months), the wife lies with legs open, and the husband stands. This position does not put pressure on the abdomen and can also adjust the depth of the engagement.

L-shaped position: suitable for the middle stage of pregnancy (4-6 months). The husband lies sideways and holds his wife's legs, and the two form an L shape. This position neither compresses the abdomen nor is it too deep.

Lie on the edge of the bed on your side: put one foot on the bed and the other foot hanging down, supported by something. This way, the expectant mother can not only rest, but the expectant father will not insert too deep or rush too fast. However, the expectant mother should be careful not to press on her stomach.

Sexual intercourse is prohibited during the first 3 months and last 3 months of pregnancy, but it is allowed during the 4th to 6th months of pregnancy. In the first three months, due to early pregnancy reactions, the sexual desire and sexual response of pregnant women are suppressed. In addition, the placenta has not yet fully matured, so miscarriage is prone to occur. Therefore, sexual life should be less than usual and the range of motion should not be too large.

When a wife is pregnant, a husband should be gentle, patient and considerate to her. When enjoying sex, try not to put your body weight on your wife's abdomen and breasts. You should also be considerate of the psychological and physical discomfort caused by your wife's pregnancy, and strictly prohibit forced sexual intercourse.

Precautions for sex during pregnancy

(I) Precautions for sexual intercourse during early pregnancy

;Can you have sex during pregnancy? You should abstain from sex in the early stages of pregnancy (the first three months of pregnancy). This is because in the early stages of pregnancy, the placenta has not yet been fully formed and the embryo is not firmly attached to the mother's uterus, and is in danger of falling off at any time. Sexual intercourse causes mechanical stimulation of the cervix and vagina and compression of the abdomen. These mechanical forces can induce strong contractions of the uterus. In addition, men's semen contains substances such as prostaglandins, which can cause uterine muscles to contract or relax significantly, easily leading to miscarriage. Especially those who have had a history of spontaneous abortion many years after marriage should avoid having sex. People with habitual miscarriage (more than three consecutive miscarriages) should absolutely not have sexual intercourse.

(II) Precautions for sexual intercourse during the second trimester of pregnancy

During the second trimester of pregnancy, sexual intercourse is relatively safe, but it should be done in moderation and without rough movements. During the 4th to 7th month of pregnancy, the uterus gradually enlarges, the amount of amniotic fluid in the fetal membrane increases, and the tension of the fetal membrane gradually increases. The most important thing during this period is to maintain the stability of the uterus and protect the normal environment for the fetus to live and develop. If the pregnant woman is in good health and the fetus is normal, she can still have sex during the second trimester, but she must be moderate. If sexual intercourse is too frequent and with great force, which puts pressure on the abdomen, it can cause premature rupture of the membranes. The umbilical cord may fall out of the rupture into the vagina or even outside the vagina, causing the fetus to die immediately from lack of nutrition and oxygen, or leading to miscarriage.

It may also lead to uterine cavity infection. Severe infection can cause fetal death, and mild infection can also affect the normal physical and intellectual development of the fetus. In addition, attention should be paid to the sexual posture to avoid compressing the pregnant woman's abdomen. The woman can be on top or in the side-lying position. At the same time, be careful not to let sexual intercourse last too long, and pay attention to cleanliness before and after sexual intercourse.

(II) Precautions for sexual intercourse in late pregnancy

Sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited in the late stages of pregnancy, especially in the month before delivery. At this time, the uterus is more sensitive and is directly stimulated by the outside world. It is very easy to suddenly increase contraction and cause premature rupture of membranes and premature birth. Premature babies have low resistance, are easily infected by diseases, are difficult to feed, and have a high mortality rate. Moreover, as the delivery period approaches, the pregnant woman's uterus descends, the vagina shortens, and the cervix gradually opens. If you have sex at this time, the possibility of amniotic fluid infection is greater.

Medical experts have reported that 50% of women who develop infections during the postpartum period are infected due to sexual intercourse during the last month of pregnancy. If a woman suffers from a serious infection during the postpartum period, it may be life-threatening. If a pregnant woman has some abnormal pregnancy conditions such as placenta previa, placental abruption, etc., sexual intercourse can easily cause heavy bleeding in the pregnant woman. Therefore, having sex in late pregnancy also directly threatens the safety of mother and fetus and should be strictly prohibited.
