I just found out that I m pregnant, my first. I’m very concerned about sex during my pregnancy, I know a pregnant woman can still enjoy sexual intercourse during pregnancy. However I’m not sure which positions I should avoid enjoying so as not to hurt our baby. I absolutely get great stimulation from all positions and have sex in every one of them regularly. Is there certain ones I should not do as my pregnancy develops over the months till delivery? Sandra B.

SandraB, congratulations! Lots of women are concerned about sex when they first fall pregnant, especially when it is their first time, so I do understand your concerns. I have always looked at sex as being very enjoyable and if you enjoyed sex before you fell pregnant, there should be no reason why you wouldn't enjoy it now. You need to go to your midwife or obstertrician and speak to them about you having sex while you are pregnant. Tell them your concerns and they will suggest what you can do to ease your concerns so that you will keep enjoying sex until you are full term.

I found sex to be very enjoyable during pregancy and the best positions I found were to be on top of the man, from behind, laying on my side... Be in control of every movement, if it hurts you, change positions. But most importantly, talk to your medical team who are looking after you. I don't work in the medical profession so you really do need to get some advice from them. All the best.. Night Angel.
