Pregnancy and Adult Time

Howdy all! My husband is wanting to show me that he still loves me and finds me sexy even when i really don't...... He really wants us to have some adult time before baby boy is here, but im 34+5 weeks and i just don't feel like we should be doing that anymore. Is it still safe to?

My OB said it is safe as long as you feel comfortable, I don’t personally feel comfortable with my huge belly tho…

@mina mine is so small, but i just don't feel myself. And with my hormones all over the place, i can be enjoying it one minute and then in a complete meltdown the next

U can have Intimacy throughout your whole pregnancy it’s safe specially around this time just don’t allow the sperm as it can make you contract unless you want too

@Sheikess So we can, just don't let him finish? Thank you!

My doctor told me is safe. But like you @KC for some reason this last weeks (I’m 34weeks)I’m not feeling it. For me it hurts a little bit and I think it is because the baby is moving down. I told my husband I’m not comfortable after trying and then I just told him we could do something else just for him and not me since it was kind of painful.

It’s all safe, sperm is supposed to help labor but I had sex all the way until 39 weeks daily trying hard to get labor to speed up and it did nothing! I think this time is super important for bonding before baby. This is when women often still feel pretty and can find a way to adore their bodies, plus you have to go 6 weeks postpartum of no sex or longer depending on your comfort level! And then you have a whole new body to get used to and feel sexy with! If your husband is willing to adore you now, I think it’s a great time to see how you can love on this body before your baby leaves it!

Sex is completely safe to do the whole pregnancy unless you're on pelvic rest. The sperm won't do much except maybe make you a bit crampy (which can also happen from your own orgasm), it'll only do more if your body is ready for labor anyway. Use lube, go at your pace, and lots and lots of foreplay! We've been sticking to spooning since it's the most comfortable for me. I'm 36 weeks and we've been doing everything as usual, just less variety with positions. I had sex up till my water broke at 39 weeks with my daughter, baby is perfectly safe and cushioned. The amniotic sack also keeps them sterile, so you can continue to let both of you finish even after you loose your mucus plug and start dilating.

Thank y'all so much. You're making me feel much more comfortable with the idea. I didn't want to do anything to harm my little one or make him show up too terribly early. My belly is currently measuring small and I'm waiting to hear about a growth scan

I don't see y it wouldn't be ok. They suggest sex as a natural way to induce labor- the sperm itself and the physical makes the cervix softer and easier delivery 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

@KC right unless you want contractions to start it’s helpful for prepping labor here & there but not everytime y’all have intimacy

100% safe it actually good cause men cumming in u will actually help u deliver baby easier cause it naturally softens the cervix so u dilate easier and faster less chance of tearing even

My doctor recommended sex

Agree with what's already been said but also wanted to add if you just don't feel like yourself putting on something sexy but coverup style can help and having more foreplay (oral on you is what I'm talking about). that's been more consistently feeling good for me since sometimes other positions can feel off

I had sex til 41 weeks w my first dr told me to do it to try to induce labor so we did it a lot!
