Is Sex in the Pool Bad?

Barneso

I know this is a little racey, but... was just wondering.

I was reading in "WTEWYE" and it says:

"Cunnlilingus is safe throughout pregnancy as long as your partner is careful not to blow any air into your vagina."

I would imagine having sex in the pool would push more air into the vagina because the lubrication is all but gone after a few seconds so there is more room for air to get in there?  Or something?

What do you think?

I hope you don't mean a public pool!

Either way I'd be worried about infection or UTI, at the least.  If you ask your doctor, please tell me what he/she says!

I wouldn't just to be on the safe side. Sorry about my previous post, because it just took me by surprise.

There is no air in water (hence why you can give birth under water)...but in a public pool (if you are going to do it there) wouldn't be safe, because they may not clean the pool properly, and you don't know where bacteria is hiding.

But, if you're really wanting to do it, ask your dr.

I wouldn't think that sex in a chlorinated pool would ever be "good" for you, but I could be wrong.

Public pool... nasty!  No, our personal, private pool... I know it was an odd question but a tad embarassing even to ask our doctor.  I did some googling and don't see anything stating that there is a problem with this, aside from potential for a UTI... which would be nasty in and of itself.  I'm not prone to UTI's though... In fact, I've never had one.

 

If I get the courage to ask doc, I'll be sure to post a PSA.

We have a Private salt water pool, and i must say... Its amazing! we have only done it once since we have become pregnant, but really, With the salt water, no big deal. I would skip if its a chlorine, That's just me. but salt water pools, GREAT! I have had no problems after, or during. My husband loved it.

Just be careful and do what feels safe and right for you.

Not to mention, any type of natural lubrication pretty much goes out the window when you have sex in water, which can cause all sorts of problems (cuts, tears, etc.).

I'd be a little concerned about the lack of lubrication in a pool during pregnancy since it may lead to more spotting/bleeding. I'd probably pass but that's just me.

What??  How does air get into your vagina during sex in a pool?  Damn those random air pockets underwater....you gotta watch out for them.

 Girls, I'm pretty sure she meant that when you get in the pool, the air that is already "in" your vagina stays there once you are submerged, and by having sex, the penis could force the air farther into the vagina.  But if this was the case, normal sex would cause the same thing.....

You should never ever have sex in any type of water. Period. The water can actually go into the uterus through the fallopian tubes and into the abdominal cavity.  It's very dangerous and a very, very bad idea.

Just FYI!
