pelvic rest anyone?

Question

Hello ladies.. 
I'm currently 21wks pregnant and have been on pelvic rest since I was 9wks pregnant.  I had a cervical cerclage placed at 14wks. I've not had any type of sexual contact with my husband since we found out we were pregnant.  I feel like my marriage is suffering because of it.  I mean we still hug,  express love for one another.  I just feel like the romance has died.

We both know that the "big picture" is for us to have a healthy and safe pregnancy. To ensure that our baby is born..  I just really miss sex and feel like the romance is dying in my marriage.  Any advice ladies??

Answer

I don't know anything about your condition, but have you looked up to see if it's safe to have oral sex? There's a lot of ways you can have some sexy time without penetrative sex, and that might be an option you can both explore :)

One thing we've found is, if I'm feeling a little too uncomfortable for penetrative sex, a small bullet vibrator can do the trick for me :) put in the hands of your partner, and it's great.

Do a little research online; there will be other people who have been in the same situation, who might have shared advice. Play it safe, of course, but there are options you can both explore.

I hope that helps in some way :)
