    At first I was nervous too, but I asked my nurse and she said it was totally fine. So we've been doing it and I've had no problems whatsoever. ;)

    Def ok unless your doc says otherwise.  Although, I have heard stories on here of ladies spotting afterward, so that always scared me.  Spotting is usualy fine, but I didn't want to stress about it.

    I'm always very nervous about it. I have bled before after intercourse and that's always scary.. But this pregnancy thank God I haven't bled so far. Personally, I try to have intercourse when I'm not cramping or feeling any aches. If I am cramping it freaks me out O.o My RE also said as long as you aren't bleeding you should be fine. And of course, like someone previously mentioned unless your doctor advises you otherwise I think it's ok.

    Unless your doctor tells you not to, it's perfectly safe.  I definitely understand your hesitation, I'm the same way, but I'm on my third and it has never caused any problems.  :)

    Unless you're OB or RE has told you otherwise, it is absolutely safe, not to mention probably pretty darn good for your relationship/marriage. (& I'm saying this as someone who went through 2 years of TTC + 2 m/c, so I totally get fears and being worried...this just isn't an area you need to worry about unless your doctor tells you to).

    Yeah unless your doctor says no for a very specific reason, there's no reason why you can't - you actually might find it more enjoyable - you'd be surprised!

    I think it is fine. I have heard that some people spot after sex so DH and I are waiting until after the first u/s. We had a previous loss and I am pretty worried about spotting. This is just us though  -not suggesting anyone else wait.

    This!!! We haven't either. If the doctor hasn't said to stop then don't. It's healthy to keep your relationship and connection with your husband going. Plus....I feel like the big O feels even better while pregnant. Maybe that's just me ;)

    My doctor has no worries about it so I haven't given being nervous about it a second thought since then.

    Unless your doctor tells you that you have a condition called placenta previa, or other condition that would cause concern for the baby, you don't have to put yourself on pelvic precautions. Enjoy being able to get close to your husband during sex while you can. Soon the baby will be something of an obstacle.

    Is it ok if you are spotting and nurse hasn't said anything about it on phone to NOT do it? I've been kinda scared too bc of spotting....

    Don't do it. It's too easy to get repregnant and you don't want Irish twins.

    I've been worried about this too Confused
