Sex positions with your pregnant wife
It’s more likely the reason you got your wife pregnant in the first place, and now that you are, remember that making love to her will be much more different! So here is a very helpful reminder: ALWAYS PROCEED WITH CAUTION AND SENSITIVENESS!
How do I start?
Your pregnant wife may be unusually fussy these days, but from the moment of conception and usually up to 12 weeks into the pregnancy, your wife can be very restless when it comes to making love. She can give you numerous excuses such as being too tired, hungry, nauseated, dizzy, or just “not in the mood.” But never take it personally, she remembers that her hormones are making her that way, it’s not because she doesn’t love you anymore. So, given that fact: It will always be wise to open lines of communication before even attempting romance. Be more sensitive to her wife’s needs outside the bedroom, and soon enough, she will reciprocate yours.
It is safe? When?
Making love when you are expecting can have numerous benefits for you and your partner; luckily, both of you can take full advantage of this throughout your pregnancy. The doctors say you can have some action in the bedroom until your water breaks! As soon as you get the “go” signal from your doctor to make love, go for it! But of course, it would always be wise to track your wife’s behavior before attempting romance. Take note of how he responds when you make your attempts. And always keep in mind that until you’re past your first trimester, she may not respond to your attempts but, of course, your conditions are mainly to blame: maybe you’re just too nauseous or too tired for that, but don’t worry. , because it will return to normal as the pregnancy progresses.
What if it’s not safe?
While many doctors and health professionals are not against having partnered sex during pregnancy, it is always best to open lines of communication not only with your wife but with your doctor as well. Again, it’s wise to pay attention, listen, and take notes, especially during doctor’s appointments (or couples therapy sessions, if you attend them). It’s very important, especially for new parents-to-be, to know if there will be any restrictions during certain times, or if it will be totally restricted for the entire nine-month journey. Her wife’s conditions, such as having an incompetent cervix (a condition known as placenta previa), vaginal bleeding, or if she has signs of preterm labor, it would be best to “avoid” making love. But do not worry! Your doctor or healthcare professional may place these restrictions for the safety of your wife and baby, but you and your wife just need to be very open in terms of communication so that you can find ways to address the intimacy you want and need. Again, communication is always the key.
But what if I hurt the baby?
This is a FACT: YOU WILL NOT. Remember that her wife’s body keeps her baby well protected and protected with many layers of flesh and plenty of swimming fluids too! While you and your wife “get to work,” your baby will remain safe and rest peacefully inside her little bag of amniotic fluid despite all the action from the outside world—and yes, including penetration. And for the record (and yes, all gynecologists will confirm this): there is a mucous plug that separates your baby from all the elements of the outside world, including semen and any other infectious organisms too! So if your wife gives you the ‘go’ signal from her side, go ahead! But of course, take into account any advice your Doctor gives you. Also, pay attention to how your wife is coping: if she’s expressing pain, or if she’s making either of you uncomfortable, you’d be better off sticking to the old-fashioned, G-rated ways (like hugging and hugging). holding hands!).
What positions will work?
Now that we’ve cleared up the nitty-gritty of the matter, here’s some helpful advice on how to make love! Many couples (especially new moms and dads-to-be) are concerned about which positions will work, especially with their wife’s growing belly, but in reality, these physical limitations will only test your creativity in modifying what you want. that really work, and who knows, you may even find that it pays to hold some “pregnancy positions” even after your baby is born (if you both have the energy left for it)!
“Man on Top” – This classic “missionary style” position is, in my opinion, the most careful with your wife’s condition: because it keeps your wife in a lying position and frees her back from the unnecessary burden of worrying about supporting her belly (especially in the last few months, when her belly is much bigger). To make her feel comfortable, she may suggest that she place some pillows under her back and also that she make sure to take the weight off of her by leaning on her arms.
“The Mattress Cellar” – This variation of getting on all fours saves your wife the burden of having to support her tummy (and pretty much the rest of her own weight) with her arms. In this position, she keeps her head and arms on the mattress and has you come in from behind her.
“Side Lying Positions” – These positions of lying on your side, either front to front or back to front (scoop) are mentioned by numerous couples as the best for pregnancy mainly for two reasons: one, it keeps your back away from you, so you don’t you have to worry about being able to support your belly, and two, it keeps you in a very relaxed position, making you achieve intimacy in a slow and sensual way. Win win!
“Scissor Legs” – This position is recommended for optimal pleasure. Have your wife lie on her side, with you on the opposite side, also facing the opposite direction.
“Woman on Top” – This very popular “cowgirl” position is great because it puts virtually no pressure on your wife’s growing belly. However, both of you should be aware that in the later months of pregnancy (when her belly is bigger), she may have trouble maneuvering in this position, and it would be best for her to sit facing the opposite direction.
“In bed” – This slightly modern twist on the classic woman-on-top position requires you to sit (on the couch or edge of the bed) while your wife sits across from you. Then, you support her hips as she leans into you. However, you may be tempted to play with her breasts, so be sure to ask if it doesn’t hurt for her to touch them.
What positions should we avoid?
Making love in the latter parts of this wonderful journey can prove to be quite challenging, as well as frustrating due to your wife’s ever-blooming tummy. As a general precaution, it’s always best to be open to communicating with your partner before even trying different positions, as certain positions can be difficult and painful not only for your partner, but also for you.
“The Floor Triangle” – This position, in which your partner stands with her legs wide open and bends down to the ground with her hands while you enter her from behind can be a very painful experience. Not only are you putting unnecessary strain on her arms (she needs to support her own weight and her belly, too) and back, but you’re also putting her at risk of some mood-ruining bouts of nausea.
“The sloth’s cart” – This position, where you’re sitting comfortably while your pregnant wife does the painful task of supporting herself (and her belly) is a big no-no. Yes, you may be pleased with this type of position because she gives you a spectacular view of her butt, but it is better to keep this position after the arrival of your baby.
“The Kangaroo Bag” – This position, where you lift your wife up using your arms while she is in front of you during penetration is a big mistake. Not only are you endangering the safety of her wife and her baby, but you are also placing unnecessary stress on her own back and hips. Now do you really need that now with a baby on the way?
“The Standing Shower” – Yes, you read that right: sure, shower sex works for some couples, but with this manual you are putting your wife at risk of accidentally slipping on the floor. Not only is he a threat to her wife if that happens, but he’s also putting her precious baby at risk.
“The Hiplift” – This is a very dangerous maneuver to attempt especially during the latter part of pregnancy. Not only are you putting pressure on her wife’s hips, but you’re also causing yourself the unnecessary trouble of having to lift her weight (including her belly).
“The Butt Lift” – This is, perhaps, the most ridiculous position that any pregnant couple should avoid.
