When did you stop having sex while pregnant and why?

Question

I’m nervous about dilating and having sex and it being uncomfortable. I keep overthinking about sex and it makes me nervous/get in my head. Did you experience discomfort with sex or fingering at any point? Did anyone know they were dilated and still had sex? Any pain or discomfort?

Answer

35 weeks only because my baby kicked my husbands hand during sex. Totally turned him off to sex for the rest of my pregnancy

Answer

Had sex at 37 weeks and peed myself lol

Answer

With my first, I had sex all the way through (had him at 38 weeks). With my second it became uncomfortable at around 30 weeks (had him 38 weeks 3 days).

Answer

I was just honest with my husband and said sorry, I’m too big right now to be able to move much. 😅 He took the lead/what he could get and we kept going all the way to 40 weeks. Though I was a “pillow princess” near the end. 👑

Answer

We didn’t for a few weeks near the end just cuz I was afraid of early labor, but at 37 weeks we knew I was getting induced the next week so we did it then since I felt safe about it then!

Answer

My husband is a little creeped out about having sex, especially since the baby is sooo active, it kind of freaks him out

Answer

We had sex the night before i was induced. I was about 2.5cm dilated but had no discomfort.

Answer

We continuously had sex but we slowed down on the amount of sex we had. The only reason we slowed down was because of the fact that it got uncomfortable I still love sex during pregnancy

Answer

We had sex all the way up until I went into the hospital.

Answer

I was put on pelvic rest at 5 weeks and wasn’t taken off until it was safe to try to self induce at 36 weeks. I had a sensitive cervix that would bleed just from mild to moderate exercise so my doc was concerned that sex might crest issues.
