There are certain times in a pregnancy
where you shouldn't have sex especially
near the end as it can cause the uterus to
contract and you could have a premature
delivery. You'd have to go to your doctor
to be sure but this is what I found and
apparently unless under specia
circumstances you can have sex all along
(although don't assume your gf is going to
want it!)
is oral sex safe?
Yes, normal oral sex won't harm you or
your baby and many consider it a good
solution if intercourse is deemed too
risky. But during pregnancy blowing air
into the vagina could be dangerous. Even
if this is the first time you've heard of
such a practice, we're mentioning it
because blowing hard could cause an air
embolism (obstructing a blood vessel) and
is potentially dangerous for mother and
baby.
Can I have sex while i'm pregnant?
Absolutely. With a normal pregnancy, you
can keep doing it right up until your
waters break. Do check with your doctor
or midwife first if you're having any
problems with your pregnancy, such as
placenta preavia or bleeding, or if you
have a history of miscarriages.
Will sex harm the baby?
You won't hurt the baby by making love,
even with your partner on top. The thick
mucus plug that seals the cervix helps
guard against infection. The amniotic sac
and the strong muscles of the uterus also
protect your baby. Though your fetus may
thrash around a bit after orgasm, it's
because of your pounding heart, not
because he knows what's happening or feels
pain. There are some important
circumstances, however, in which you may
be advised not to have intercourse.
