TTC After a Loss

Will you BD after you get your BFP?

I was just lurking over at SAL and a lot of the girls haven't been BD'ing since their BFP.  I know that after we got ours we did BD and then lost the baby.  I know it's not related at all, but I think I'd still be a little nervous.

How will you feel?

Re: Will you BD after you get your BFP?

  • I've been thinking about that today too.  Getting a BFP didn't have any impact on our sex life last time, and I know in my head it doesn't make any difference, but........

    I'll guess I'll just be playing it by ear when the time comes.

  • I don't know!  When I was pregnant and heard that you could spot afterwards I was freaked out to do it and see spotting. So now that I've had a miscarriage that started out with spotting, I'm not sure what I'll do when it comes to that time!  I'll be pretty scared I think!

  • With my history of spotting, probably not! I hate to say that b/c I know it would probably be ok but it would freak me out.
  • I think maybe not but who knows maybe once or twice after we pass the time I had my two losses. I think I will feel to uncomfortable after my belly starts to show and I feel like there is a real baby in there.
  • Last time it didn't affect our BD life... but now that we will be super paranoid... probably not.  I guess we'll see when the time comes... hopefully sooner than later

    I plan to ask my doctor.

    Like you, I miscarried very soon after having sex. I know that the sex didn't cause the m/c, but I also know I will be nervous anyway.

    I have heard that OBs will in some cases recommend abstaining through the first tri, so I will definitely ask my doc first. If she says it's ok, I'll probably just proceed with caution - nothing too strenuous. ;)?

  • I think I plan to. I get really cranky when it goes for too long without ;) I swear, I'm a guy like that. I know all of the medical statistics that it doesn't hurt the baby and I'm gonna believe that and go for it.?

    Honestly, I think DH will be more scared than I am because its not his body and he was so freaked out by our loss and he'll be afraid of hurting me and/or baby. ?

    oh please. not KU. effed up.
  • Last time we didnt have sex after our bfp.  We were going to wait to second tri.  Let me tell you- it was a long 12 weeks!  (well, technically 8).  Not sure what we will do this time, we get an early u/s at 5 or 6 weeks, so I think we will be comfortable having sex after we see the little guy is healthy.

  • That's a good question...  In fact, just today DH asked me when we will have sex again, as he was feeling horny and I told him "Ain't gonna happen in the 2 week wait..."  I told him I didn't want to mess things up... ha ha

    If/when we get our BFP I definitely will not be having sex for atleast a few weeks.  I want to know that everything is OK.  I think I will wait until atleast a heartbeat has been detected.  Who knows, it could be sooner, could be later, but definitely I will be very insecure and nervous once PG again and will definitely be living life on the cautious side.
