Introduction: In the 10th month of pregnancy, many expectant parents don’t know whether to suspend their sexual life. In fact, as long as the expectant mother is healthy and the fetus is developing well, it is okay to have sex during pregnancy, but some special pregnant women should pay attention.
After pregnancy, some expectant fathers and mothers suspend sexual life between husband and wife for fear of harming their unborn baby. However, the process of pregnancy in October is very long, and expectant mothers also want to know: Can you have sex during pregnancy?
Pregnancy should now have a comprehensive concept. If the mother is not healthy and happy, the child she is carrying will not be healthy. Therefore, while emphasizing the healthy growth of the fetus, we should also care about the health and happiness of the expectant mother. The health of expectant mothers comes from the harmony of the family, and a large part of the harmony of the family lies in the harmony of the sexual life of the couple. Pregnancy is a long time. If you cannot have a very pleasant sex life during this period, the relationship between husband and wife is bound to be affected, and family harmony may also be lost. Therefore, it needs to be emphasized that if the expectant mother is in good health, sexual intercourse during pregnancy is harmless and should be encouraged.
However, not all expectant mothers can have sex during pregnancy. Obstetricians and gynecologists remind that the following types of pregnant women should not have sexual intercourse:
First of all, pregnant women with severe early pregnancy reactions should avoid sexual intercourse. Clinical medical research shows that pregnant women usually experience some severe early pregnancy reactions around 6 weeks into pregnancy. If persistent nausea, frequent vomiting, inability to eat, etc. occur, the husband should understand that he must not only actively take care of him in life, but also take care of him mentally. Offer comfort and proactively avoid sex. If you forcibly have sex with your wife during the reaction period, the vomiting will often worsen; if the pregnant woman suffers from diseases such as renal insufficiency, the condition will worsen; for those with retinal hemorrhage, the bleeding will worsen and affect their health.
Secondly, pregnant women with a habit of miscarriage should avoid sexual intercourse. A large number of facts have proved that pregnant women with vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, risk of miscarriage and habitual miscarriage will not only aggravate the symptoms but also increase the risk of miscarriage.
Severe early pregnancy reactions and a history of miscarriage are two criteria that strictly prohibit sexual intercourse during pregnancy. If it exists, it must be avoided, and the safety of the expectant mother and fetus must not be harmed because of temporary pleasure.
Third, pregnant women suffering from pregnancy diseases should avoid sexual intercourse. Pregnant women suffering from pregnancy-induced hypertension or heart disease complications should keep their body and mind calm, maintain a happy mood, promote the stability of their condition, and strive for a speedy recovery. To avoid physical fatigue, it is not advisable to have sex. Therefore, pregnant women should try to sleep in separate beds with their husbands according to the severity of their illness to ensure a quiet and good living environment, which is not only beneficial to the body in eliminating fatigue, but also conducive to recharging energy. and protect the fetus.
Fourth, pregnant women with placental problems should avoid sexual intercourse. If the expectant mother has placenta previa, or the placenta is not tightly connected to the uterus, intercourse may lead to miscarriage. Sexual life should be temporarily stopped and resumed after the situation stabilizes.
Too Frequent Uterine Contractions If an expectant mother finds that her uterine contractions are too frequent, in order to avoid premature birth, she should avoid sexual intercourse and seek medical examination. Sexual position precepts for pregnant women.
Fifth, pregnant women with chronic diseases should avoid sexual intercourse. Women with various chronic conditions that make pregnancy unfit for pregnancy have become pregnant. In this case, both husband and wife should understand that such opportunities do not come easily, and they should cherish and care for this life. The husband should proceed from the reality of life, take some practical measures to care for, be considerate and love his wife, and strive to create a good living environment for the health of pregnant women and the normal growth and development of the fetus, so that his wife can rest in peace, rest in peace. Undesirable stimulation should be prohibited in sexual life.
Sixth, pregnant women in early and late pregnancy should avoid sexual intercourse. Clinical studies have shown that the first three months and the last three months of pregnancy are not only important periods for pregnant women to rest their bodies, but also sensitive periods for the fetus, which are suitable for scientific prenatal education. From the perspective of pregnancy health care, in order to protect the fetus in the first trimester and the fetus in the third trimester, pregnant women should not have sex to avoid harm to the fetus.
7. Pregnant women with prepartum hemorrhage should avoid sexual intercourse. Women who have experienced prepartum hemorrhage should be careful. Regardless of the amount of bleeding, deep sexual intercourse should be prohibited, otherwise it will cause heavy bleeding or even be life-threatening. In addition, pregnant mothers with placenta previa should also pay attention to not having too frequent and intensive sexual intercourse.
Eighth, pregnant women whose sexual partners have sexual organ diseases should avoid sexual intercourse. If the expectant father has sexual organ disease, he may theoretically introduce bacteria into the vagina, causing chorioamnionitis and premature birth. If the expectant father is unwilling to use condoms, he hopes to abstain from sex or suspend sexual intercourse during pregnancy.
9. Pregnant women with too frequent uterine contractions should avoid sexual intercourse. If an expectant mother finds that her uterus contracts too frequently, she should avoid sexual intercourse and go to the hospital for examination in time to avoid premature birth.
Tenth, pregnant women with uterine insufficiency should avoid sexual intercourse. Generally, the cervix of pregnant women is almost closed during pregnancy. It does not gradually open until the full-term pregnancy enters the labor process and labor begins. In a small number of pregnant women, the cervix of a small number of pregnant women dilates before immaturity under the pressure of the mature uterus and fetus. This condition is called cervical insufficiency. It is generally believed that 20%-25% of mid-term miscarriages are caused by this. The immature fetus will flow out of the body and cause miscarriage, so it is not suitable to have sex.
When an expectant mother encounters the above situation, she must prohibit sexual intercourse. It is recommended that couples choose other ways to satisfy their desires. But there is one thing to note. If the doctor has clearly reminded pregnant women that the reason for prohibiting sexual intercourse is due to uterine contractions, then any behavior that will arouse sexual excitement in pregnant women must be prohibited at this time, including touching the breasts and vulva, because these stimulations may also cause uterine contractions and endanger the health and safety of the fetus. Safety.
All in all, during pregnancy, everything in life should go as it shouldOf course, maintain an intimate relationship between husband and wife, but there is no need to deliberately treat sex as an obligation. If you consult your doctor after the prenatal check-up and there is no need to worry about your body, then you can have sex. Finally, I would like to remind everyone that if you have any physical discomfort or abnormality, you must suspend your sexual life and go to the hospital for examination in time to avoid accidents.
