36+4 sex and cramps 😬

So my partner has been pretty slack on wanting sex since I’ve been pregnant and didn’t know that you can’t have sex for 6 weeks until after baby is born... of course that kicked him into action and we have had sex 3 times this week.

This morning after sex i jumped straight into the shower and when I got out I started feeling some pretty strong cramps, dizziness and a little nauseous.

Does sex only encourage labour if it was on its way anyway? Or should I not be having sex until later on?
