What to do if you sleep together during early pregnancy

Many couples become very excited and cautious when they first learn they are pregnant or have a child. Of course, this approach is correct and worth promoting, but in many cases, many people will not be able to persist for long before some minor flaws and problems appear. So let’s find out what you should do if a couple sleeps together in the early stages of pregnancy.

1. What should I do if I have sex when I just get pregnant?

1. If there are no adverse reactions in your body after having sex, you can rest assured. Although sexual intercourse is not recommended in the early stages of pregnancy, there is no need to worry too much if it is careless negligence. As long as it does not affect the normal development of the fetus (generally there is no lower abdominal pain or bleeding in the lower body), there is no big problem and you can rest assured. However, for the safety of the fetus, you should try to avoid sexual intercourse in the future just in case.

2. If you feel unwell after having sex, such as abdominal pain, vaginal infection, bleeding, etc., you should go to the hospital to consult a doctor in time to eliminate related hidden dangers. At the same time, you should do a good job of prenatal and postnatal checkups (such as Down syndrome screening at 14-20 weeks of pregnancy, and color Doppler ultrasound fetal abnormality examination at 22-26 weeks of pregnancy).

2. Symptoms

1. No adverse reactions to the body after intercourse: If there is no physical discomfort after intercourse in the early stages of pregnancy (such as lower abdominal pain, or vaginal infection, etc.), the expectant mother can rest assured that if there are no signs of miscarriage or infection, it will not affect the baby.

2. Physical discomfort after sex: If you experience abdominal pain, vaginal infection, bleeding, etc., you should consult a doctor in time to eliminate related hidden dangers, and do a good job of pregnancy and delivery checkups (such as Down syndrome screening at 14-20 weeks of pregnancy, and color Doppler ultrasound screening at 22-26 weeks of pregnancy).

Many people suggest that pregnant mothers should try to reduce or avoid sexual intercourse in the early stages of pregnancy. Because the fetus is still unstable in the early stages of pregnancy, it is the period when miscarriage is most likely to occur, especially for pregnant women at high risk of miscarriage. Especially in the first three months of pregnancy, on the one hand, the placenta has not yet matured and the connection between the placenta and the uterine wall is not tight; on the other hand, the secretion of progesterone is insufficient and cannot provide strong protection for the embryo. Having sex at this time may cause miscarriage. In addition, after a woman becomes pregnant, her endocrine function changes, early pregnancy reactions, and considerations of the impact on the embryo reduce her demands for and responses to sexual life. Therefore, it is best not to have sex in the early stages of pregnancy.
