Never having sex again!

Amusjh · October 2009

The whole time we had sex last night, all I could think about was causing a possible m/c. Now today I'm spotting... Ugh....

jessbrad06 · October 2009

I am still freaked out..we have not had sex since I got my BFP on Oct 1st. I am soooo freakin scared.

beansi · October 2009

Stay positive!

Scout05 · October 2009

Yeah, my DH hasn't gotten any since the BFP, and it's not looking good for him right now with the pukies starting up.

He's been a good sport about it so far. I think he's scared of spotting too.

Spotting is common after sex... if your that freaked out. call your doctor.

AbJams · October 2009

Spotting after sex is pretty common. And aaaaaall the books and everything say sex cannot cause a m/c. That said... DH and I have had sex like, twice in the last 3 weeks. That is saaaaaad.

Sex can cause a small amount of spotting...mainly because the increased blood going through ... well ... everywhere. If you're really concerned call the doc. Most likely everything is 100% ok.

When I was around 5 to 6 weeks I spotted, very minimally, after me and DH had sex.It freaked me out so bad...i cried. I called the doc (well, NP answered the phone) and they said no intercourse until my first appt. Well, I haven't had spotting sense. I'm sure everything is okay.

I was a little freaked out and worried that it would be painful. Plus I think I have a cyst that makes sex painful. It was fine, but I'm still not in the mood.

ac_in_dc · October 2009

We still have it 2-3 times a week. It's a priority for me.

A little bit of spotting is totally OK/normal. Unless you are on vaginal rest for an incompetent cervix, sex is totally fine.

laurasue · October 2009

Sex, a pap, a transvag ultrasound - all can cause spotting because the region has higher bloodflow and your cervix is softer and can be more prone to bleeding. It's perfectly normal and sex will not cause a miscarriage unless your doctor has specifically ordered pelvic rest. If you're concerned, call your doc.

julinejb · October 2009

It's been about a month since DH & I have had sex which is sad cause we've only been married for a month and a half. I feel bad for him, but the m/s makes me feel worse...

Good thing he's a good sport and hasn't complained once!

prego760 · October 2009

I must be going though the cant get enough stage. I'm sure my DH wishes I had been prego the last 8 years.

When I talked to my NP, she said that if I ever had any spotting after sex, I should wait a week before having sex again. I still makes me nervous though, but I'm sure everything is fine.

lactyfiregirl · October 2009

It has been off limits for us since BFP as well, and he totally understands. I had a m/c last year and OB said it would be best to try to avoid at least until I get to my 1tri. As sick as I have been trust me I don't miss it. For now DH has to be content with other methods, and trust me no complaints there.

newmommyin2010 · October 2009

I am having a hard time with this as well...I am normally really into sex and haven't been since we found out....the first time we tried it freaked me out and it was somewhat uncomfortable...the past few times have gotten better...it is not the spotting I am worried about I think it is the fact that there is a little person in there and well yeah...my husband has been so awesome about this...he hasn't been complaining...I have actually been apologizing a lot lately...I am just not in the mood....I haven't had any m/s at all...just feel different all over and down there...ugghhh...poor guy....maybe I will just have to get it together and surprise him with a go around tonight! Stick out tongue

Oh good I'm not the only one.

elizb137 · October 2009

Yeah we've tried it once...not happening again anytime soon. Just was awkward for us bc normally we're so into it and we were trying to be careful.

Plus the m/s is not making me feel real sexy lol.

jennaanddan · October 2009

MH has gotten it more in the past week than he did the whole month before that, and he was even gone for 4 days! What can I say, I guess being impregnated with his child turns me on.

whitsim · October 2009

Well, I hope that your spotting rights itself, and feel free to call your doc up to make sure that everything is cool. I just haven't felt interested one bit in intimacy (much to my husband's dismay) for the past, umm...yep - right about 13 weeks now! But you can't force these things, you know?! Hope things look up for you soon.

Tori120408 · October 2009

OMG your poor DH's!!! LOL

IMO having sex is amazing during pregnancy... Devil

Once you out of your 1st trimester (I can understand being worried, but just don't do it rough haha) make sure you get your daily dose! LOL

Stephanie2167 · October 2009

There is no sex going on in my house either.

slc2b · October 2009

It isn't really that I am not into it right now, but more that it just feels so, I don't know, amplified or something. And not in a good way. It almost feels like scraping (sorry). I had to kick DH outta there last night, and I feel bad for him cause ever since I got the bfp he is sooo turned on (sorry again). I have a feeling he is going to be going it alone for a while

niki731 · October 2009

My best friend forund out she was preg in the beginning of sept and refuses to have sex until her first US (which is going on right now). She wants to make sure everything is o.k. I on the the other hand was having sex until my first US and they told me I have placenta previa----no more sex for me till next US which is about 10 wks.

emily0829 · October 2009

No sex here, either.

I'm not necessarily worried about the spotting, but the ONE TIME we did after the BFP, I had a bit of cramping, the movement made me sick to my stomach, as well as the "sex smell" (which used to be great)

I rushed to the bathroom after and puked for 15 minutes.

KMLP · October 2009

You may spot from an irritated cervix, but how on earth are you going to cause a m/c from sex?

jays_bride · October 2009

Give it another couple of weeks and he'll have to beat you back with a stick. Seriously, I'm a total sex addict when I'm pregnant!

This.

lilpinkbride · October 2009

I totally feel the same way...so nervous. Funny thing that my ob said..."if sex caused miscarriages, there wouldn't be abortions". Made me feel a little better. Now I am just to exhausted to have sex!!
