Question: Is it safe to have contact with hubby after three months of pregnancy

Answer: Yes, if you've had a healthy pregnancy, there's no reason why you and your partner can't have a full and satisfying sex life. Rest assured, having sex cannot harm your baby. During intercourse your baby stays cushioned and safe in the amniotic fluid. Also, the cervix is closed and has a mucus plug, which makes it impassable. Your husband will not be able to penetrate deep enough to reach your baby. And although orgasms can trigger uterine contractions, these do not cause any harm and are different from contractions during labour. However, your gynaecologist may advise you to not have sex if you: have a history or threat of miscarriage. have unexplained vaginal bleeding or spotting have abdominal pain or cramps have a history of cervical weakness are pregnant with twins or multiple babies have a low lying placenta or placenta pervia.

Answer: Sex is safe during pregnancy unless your healthcare provider has indicated that you have a high-risk pregnancy. Although there are few reasons to avoid sex during pregnancy, there are some situations when your health care provider may indicate that sex should be avoided.

Answer: It is suggested to avoid sex during pregnancy as it may cause problems during pregnancy and also may cause uterine contractions and bleeding and due to which the chances of premature delivery may occur. So it is better to avoid sex.
