What should I do if I want to have sex in the late stages of pregnancy?

There are many taboos during pregnancy, such as not smoking, drinking, not doing strenuous exercise, etc., and sex is one of the taboos. Improper sex during pregnancy may affect the fetus. It is also possible to have sex in the late pregnancy, as long as you know some correct practices and master some postures. Here we will introduce what to do if you want to have sex in the late pregnancy.

5 poses

Embrace

This is a very comfortable position that does not put pressure on the pregnant woman's abdomen, and the couple can do many movements, and the man can enter from behind at different angles.

When taking this position, be careful not to lie on your right side; lying on your left side is recommended.

Face to face

In this position, the couple has more equal physical contact, but it may be difficult to "enter". You can try crossing your legs together.

This position is the same as the hug position, without putting pressure on the abdomen.

Female on top

For some women, this position is ideal.

It allows women to freely control the depth and angle during sexual intercourse.

However, women in late pregnancy may become more easily fatigued if they adopt this posture, and they should also pay attention to maintaining balance.

Doggy Style

For some people, this makes it easier to stimulate the G-spot, and by adopting this position, they can find pleasure without having to change positions so frequently.

This position can be performed in bed and elsewhere, and can be modified slightly to support the woman more comfortably.

Bedside

This position makes it easier for pregnant couples to find a very comfortable feeling.

Women can lean against the edge of the bed to support their backs; men can stand or kneel slightly away from the bed.

This position can also be combined with the rear entry position, but at this time the woman needs to lie on the edge of the bed with her upper body and keep her abdomen away from the bed without compressing it.

Principles of sexual life during pregnancy

Regarding the details of sexual life, you need to pay attention to:

1. In the early stages of pregnancy, most postures are acceptable.

Be careful not to put too much pressure on the pregnant woman's abdomen.

2. As your pregnancy progresses, pay attention to adjusting your posture

As a pregnant woman's belly grows bigger, the traditional man-on-top position may make her feel uncomfortable. At this time, you can try other positions such as woman-on-top position.

3. Avoid lying flat on your back during late pregnancy

Because when a pregnant woman lies flat on her back, the enlarged uterus will compress the large blood vessels, which will not only cause pelvic pain, but also cause changes in heart rate and blood pressure, and manifest symptoms such as dizziness, which is called "supine hypotension syndrome."

4. Oral sex is safe during pregnancy

But when your partner is giving you oral sex, be careful not to blow air into your vagina. Because in rare cases, air may enter the blood vessels and cause "air embolism", which may eventually lead to pulmonary embolism, which will threaten the life safety of you and your child.

5. Anal sex is prohibited

Because the incidence of hemorrhoids increases during pregnancy, anal sex can be uncomfortable, and it may transfer bacteria from the rectum to the vagina, leading to infection.

6. Other methods

If you have sexual taboos, you can also enhance the relationship between you and your partner through other ways such as touching.

7. You can use condoms

The fundamental principle of sexual life during pregnancy is to "avoid taboos, enjoy pleasure, and communicate openly with your partner."
