Most pregnant women are allowed to have intercourse during pregnancy, except at special times and for special people. Intercourse refers to sexual life with contact of sex organs, instead of the usual intimate contact such as hugging, kissing, stroking, etc. Sex brings pleasure and at the same time stimulates the vagina and cervix, and may even cause slight contraction of the uterus, so many pregnant women will consciously avoid and reduce their sex life after pregnancy.

In the first 3 months of pregnancy, the embryo is extremely unstable, and miscarriage is likely to occur after external stimuli, especially sexual stimuli, so it is recommended that parents-to-be avoid sex in the first 3 months of pregnancy. In the last 3 months of pregnancy, that is, the fetus full 28 weeks, the fetus has a certain vitality and vigor, but still less than the time of birth, at this time to have sex will cause uterine contractions, vaginal discharge, premature rupture of membranes, vaginal red and other signs of preterm labor, so it is recommended that parents-to-be at this time should also avoid sex.

Some pregnant women have a history of uterine insufficiency, or have had a history of large-month miscarriages, as well as a low placenta position in the current pregnancy, these pregnant women also need to avoid and reduce sex during pregnancy. Sex is the secret weapon of communication between husband and wife. Except for the special period and special people mentioned above, parents-to-be can adopt suitable positions for sex according to their physical strength and libido needs.
