Preterm Labor
Im 31 weeks and last week was diagnosed with preterm labor. I'm having contractions pretty regularly, am 1+ cm dilated (as of Friday) and had a positive FFN. Is sex off limits? My doctor didn't say...I'm on modified bed rest. Thanks!

Re: Preterm Labor
I would assume that yes, sex is off limits.

Re: Preterm Labor
I would probably refrain from sex as well.

This. Since doctors say sex can induce labor then I'd stay away.

Re: Preterm Labor

Re: Preterm Labor
i would say sex is definitely off limits, esepcially is you are 1+cm dialated.
Feel better!!

Re: Preterm Labor
Surprisingly, my doctor wasn't totally against it today! She said there is some evidence that it could cause more progress, but it isn't totally convincing that it would cause labor...I'm probably going to wait until 35 weeks anyway (that's when she will take me off of bed rest as well).
