Pregnant after IF

Does pelvic rest mean...

No penisinthevagina sex? Or no orgasms at all?

Re: Does pelvic rest mean...

  • When we were put back on pelvic rest this week, we were told nothing in the vagina (tampons, douching, intercourse), and nothing that would upset the cervix.  She didn't mention anything about orgasms...  (although we didn't ask!)

    ETA: Our diagnosis is placenta previa, although it's early, so it could (and hopefully will) move on its own.

  • depends on why you are on it.  I have a subchorionic hematoma, so it is both for me.

  • I'm on pelvic rest for some minor spotting. What do you wise ladies think? To O or not to O... that is the question.

  • Usually pelvic rest means no sex and no O either.

    ETA: Oing makes your uterus contract which if you are on pelvic rest, you don't want it to do that.

  • I believe it's both because o'ing may make your uterus contract as well. I'd ask your OB for clarificatoin on what he considers pelvic rest to entail though :)

    My docs were very clear that it was none of either for me during my rest period.

  • Yep, for us that's exactly what it meant.  No sex or orgasms at all, no exercise, no lifting heavy things, etc.

  • I am on pelvic rest as well for spotting issues and they said nothing! No sex, Os, exercise, lifting anything above 10 pounds.. etc!
