Pregnancy & Sex

Monday November 3, 2008
My mailbox often gets flooded with pregnancy sex questions. Perhaps you and your partner have questions about sex in pregnancy as well. When is it safe? Can you do it at the end of pregnancy safely? All your sex and pregnancy questions that you wanted to ask but were embarrassed to ask! Yes, you can do that!

Is it normal and OK to have cramping after a masturbation orgasm during pregnancy? I am 3 1/2 months. No complications.

Yes, it is normal to have cramping after an orgasim. Don’t worry, it’s a natural thing and happens to most women.

I have orgasams when I have dreams of having sex with my husband, is it safe as I am 11 weeks pregnant ? We have not indulged in sex after my pregnancy was confirmed. Kindly advise if my orgasams are safe and can we have sex during pregnancy ?

Well I have felt cramping from day one after a orgasam, but today really seems to be painful. I am 38 weeks. I have heard though that orgasams and sex can bring on labour. Be careful if you are still early in your pregnancy, but I am trying sex tonight to see if this little guy will meet us this weekend.
