Are there any sexual positions unsafe?
Just curious - I dont want my mind occupied when we are having sex and thinking "Is this bad for the baby?"
I'm in my 2nd trimester - I mean, we arent upside down or hanging off the chandaliers or anything, but you know, we get active.... 
So, anything I should know for 2nd trimester? What about 3rd trimester?
Thanks ladies!

Re: Are there any sexual positions unsafe?
I actually asked my doctor this mainly because I am just so unconfortable in most positions! They said nothing is unsafe except when the belly starts getting bigger, you shouldn't be laying on your back because of circulation issues. But the doc DID tell me that laying on your side with DH behind you seems to be the most popular and comfortable for PG women! I haven't tried it yet...

I wouldn't know- my DH won't go NEAR me that way. It freaks him out.

Re: Are there any sexual positions unsafe?
you get really creative come the 3rd trimester. even laying on my side isn't good anymore... standing up and leaning on bed has been working.

I hope it comes back, i am just trying to show DH that I am still fun and not just a blob who takes up most of the bed these days. my sex drive? completely forced and fake. too much going on, I haven't had a big O in weeks.
For some reason, sex makes my heartburn 100% worse.

you are so good, my poor DH is trying to be patient with the drastic decline but you are right and I may try your strategy one day when I get some energy

way too much TMI, but I try for short sessions as well. Do something else for a little while before you actually start intercourse.
I am trying to be a good sport, DH never intiates..but I am just adding up the weeks..6 weeks post partum..kind of long. If I felt the baby was in any kind of jeopardy, I would skip it..but I have never had spotting or anything afterwards.

Not TMI at all- no such thing here. Its the only places I feel comfortable getting and sharing information
Thanks

I think all you girls who are working are so good. When we moved to NC, I was going to work for a few months, but DH had to leave for a 7 week training session. So I stopped working at 4 months. If I was working, I would not be exercising, cooking, cleaning, or sexing. I can guarentee that.
I suffer from stay at home mom without a baby guilt.

Im on my way to that record. Right now I wont let him NEAR me. I keep thinking oK, maybe and then FREAK out. He told me he would wait 9 months but I feel bad. We just have to see how it goes I guess.

ummm - lets see - I do work, and no - I do not exercise (I cant until my exam Nov 21 - exercise time must be replaced by studying time right now!) I don't cook, hardly clean, and sex is maybe once a week - maybe....

Re: Are there any sexual positions unsafe?
For me it was the complete opposite. I told my husband he needed to take one for the team.
I did hear that oral sex wasn't a good idea but that was from the What to Expect When You're Expecting book about 5 years ago. Not sure if that's still the case.

If you were like me with the MS your dh was sex deprived for several weeks at the beginning!

It is ok to have oral sex (either way) as long as he is not blowing air inside of you...which is kind of weird anyway!
