| Many women, who have a normal pregnancy, may continue to have sex until the penultimate day of pregnancy. It is important to recognize that making love never does any harm to the baby because the baby is safely surrounded by the muscles in the uterus and is protected inside the amniotic sac. |
During the first trimester, a pregnant woman can continue to have sex in any position. Once the uterus starts expanding, certain normal positions become more difficult to perform. According to experts, a pregnant woman should avoid lying on the back for long periods after entering into the second trimester of pregnancy. In these circumstances, one needs to make certain modifications in the sex positions or find different ways of satisfying each other.
Spooning sex position: This is a safer sex position during pregnancy. In this, a pregnant woman can lie on her side curled in the shape of a C. The male partner now faces the back of the woman and curls himself around her. He then enters the vagina from behind. In this position, both the partners lie on their side. Hence, there is no pressure on the abdomen.
Side by side: Another good sex position during pregnancy comfortable during later stages of pregnancy. Both the partners will lie side by side. Man can slip his leg over the woman and enter the vagina at an angle. There is also a subtle variation in this position. Woman can lie on her back and the male partner can be on his side. Woman can now place her legs over his legs and he can enter either from the back or side.
Woman on Top: This can be the most satisfying sex position during pregnancy providing maximum thrust and comfort. However, one should be careful to see that he does not penetrate much.
Rear entry position: This position is good for ample g-spot stimulation.
Edge of the bed position: This is a good alternative from women who prefer to lie on their back and have sex. In this, the woman can be on her back and lie at the edge of the bed with knees in a bent position. Partner kneels or stands in front and enters in that position.
On the chair position: Another good sex position during pregnancy is to straddle the partner when he sits on a sturdy chair.
