The fact is that a huge number of couples remain active in sex throughout pregnancy. The researchers noted that most women have decreased interest in sex during the first trimester (when a woman's condition worsens due to toxicosis), in the next three months, desires (at this time women feel much better) and again the decline in the desire for sex at the final stage Since the movements of women with every week are all difficult.
In the conducted survey among 300 women the reason of interest decrease to sex has been revealed is a physical dyscomfort. Most women complain of pain during intercourse, which intensify as the term increases.
Future dads experience emotional instability the same way as their wives. A study of 60 couples married showed that fathers even experience less comfort than their wives in position. Women feel themselves pacified, their sexual self-esteem is much higher than that of their spouses.
Usually women and men do not even suspect how attractive a husband with a huge belly can look in the eyes of her husband. A lot of women are worried about this, and these experiences are in vain.
Many men still consider pregnancy an obstacle in their sexual relations with their wife. The reasons are different: the loss of the attractiveness of women, the fear that they will harm the child, the feeling that sex is immoral during pregnancy, etc.
Morality set out: men relax! Pregnancy, of course, will bring little changes to your sex life, but everyone passes through it.
Most couples are worried in a special way about sex at the end of the last trimester of pregnancy, because this can speed birth.
Usually this does not cause problems. If the date of birth has already approached, doctors and obstetricians on the contrary recommend having sex, as the most optimal way to begin childbirth. But if there have been cases of premature birth of the mother, then doctors can recommend abstinence from sex in the last month of pregnancy, although studies have shown that having sex during this period is not the cause of premature birth.
Doctors advise to abandon the usual position - a man from the top - for several weeks before delivery. This posture will not be convenient for you, besides, it just is the reason for the violation of the amniotic membrane and associated with this disorder, premature birth.
So all the same, how dangerous is sex during pregnancy?
There is such a category of women that doctors advise all the same to refrain from coition during pregnancy. This category includes women who have seen abnormalities such as abdominal cramps and vaginal bleeding, women at risk of premature birth or miscarriages, and in all those cases where a mandatory bed rest is required in the first twenty weeks.
Doctors distinguish two types of sexual contacts, which must be avoided by pregnant women. The first is cunnilingus. With this contact, you can drive air into the woman's vagina and cause embolism, which can negatively affect both the mother and the baby.
The second contact - in no case a pregnant woman should not have sexual intercourse with a man who has a sexually transmitted disease. Thus, a newborn child can become infected with a deadly disease for him if the virus is in the mother's vagina, i. E. in the birth canal.
