The hubby and I had sex this morning. I had some mild cramping afterwards for an hour or so, but baby has been really calm and quite all morning. usually I get several kicks or rolls and hour. ive been drink water the past hour to see if I can get the baby moving. any one else experience this?

Re: calm baby after sex.

  • Yep and it's completely normal.  This is weird but I've read that when your uterus contracts during orgasm, it soothes the baby and they generally fall asleep!

  • Yea, to them it's just being in a warm bed that gives them good night hugs. I'm sure he has the same smile on his face that you do. Let the kiddo nap.

    Funny.  Has the same effect on DH.
    lol - This,

    I think it's the rocking motion that puts them to sleep too, because the same thing happens to me after yoga. My instructor has me doing a lot of poses with motion to help open my hips and whatnot.

  • Yes, baby asleep and me with wicked Braxton-Hicks.  And content spouse.  Currently 31 weeks.
  • Thanks ladies.... Yes the sex that's few and far between these days seems like dh and baby enjoy way more than me. Lol I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets bh after sex. And I guess I'll just let baby enjoy his sleep for now.
