I am 6 months pregnant and last night me and my bf had sex. For a while I was laying down and then I was on top and it was fast and my stomach got a really bad pain in the left side. Hudson said it was pry cuz we were having rough sex and I dont know if thats good for the baby, expecially after last night when it hurt. I couldnt sleep all night either..I felt really bloated and I just couldnt sleep. Is it ok to still have sex or should I stop? I heard its more safe to have oral sex....We did that last night too but we did it again...Only it was sex not oral..And it hurt....Is this normal? To get a pain when having sex?I got like 4 hrs. Of sleep last night...Im soo tired! But im worried..Baby hasnt moved a whole lot today..

You probably experienced pelvic congestion.If not this you may want to advise your doctor on how low your placenta lies.Its a condition called placenta praevia.Your doctor may advise you to avoid sex or to avoid rough sex that involves you or your partner on top of one another, you may want to try side to side, it will be a little awkward at first but should relieve the pain you feel on your left side.I hope this helped.

Yea

My tummy hurt again last night when we tried to have sex. We were goin for a while, he was on top, and I told him to stop cuz it was hurting my tummy and he wasnt even really touchin it. We layed on our sides and it was better but my tummy was still achy. It was achy tho too right before we were getting in bed. The baby has been moving all day today pretty much and im glad, cuz hes actually moving! I have my next Dr. App. In a month...Should I wait and see if the pain keeps goin on or should I call in right away....

Pain

I would wait a little while pain is normal. See last night that is what happend to me. I have hurt all day but I found out it was were I was lying on my back were not suppost to do that you know. So the dr told me to lay on my side that would be ok. If you still keep hurting by tomrrow then I would go.

If you still hurt, even after the doc gives the ok, you can sugest other ways or avoid it as much as you can. I had to do that my last pg. It was painful for me so we just found new ways to enteract with each other rather then having sex. We mostly massaged each other. That helped avoid alot of relasionship stress we were getting. Guys understand, don't feel majorly pressured to giving in. Try ways to get around it, i'm not big on pain thats why we stopped. But do ask your doctor I do know that if you start spotting or anything you should stop and contact your doctor.
