Answer

I’m on bed rest for preterm labor and was told to not have sex. I believe if ur doctor hasn’t told you not to then you should be fine.

Answer

It helps, but it’s not a given.

Answer

It'll only bring on labor if you are already close to being in labor, I'd say go for it! Unless you've been told not to by your Dr.

Answer

Didn’t help with my son lol

Answer

The semen might help with labor

Answer

Took a birth class and semen helps ripen the cervix, so that's why the baby may 'come faster'
