Can I Orgasm?

[Julietee]

I'm wondering because it's been at least 2 months since I masturbated. Obviously in that time the baby and womb have grown a lot! I'm kind of paranoid that my uterus is now unaccustomed to the orgasm process... I know, that sounds ridiculous.

Also, I've read that the contractions caused by masturbation orgasms are stronger than intercourse orgasms. Are these going to be too strong after such a long time without (I never O from sex)?

I guess it comes down to me being worried stupidly about hurting the bean with strong contractions after a long time without orgasming.

I had the same exact fears but it's honestly absolutely fine.

I think it's actually a very healthy thing to do - to get the heart going and oxygen pumping to the bean. But that is just my totally non medical theory.. ( excuse) !

I'm 19 weeks and due to having had 3 episodes of bleeding (and being on a sex ban) I have been worried about this also. I have probably only done it about 5 times in the last 12 weeks And each time I'm nervous! I haven't had any problems though but I try and make them gentle orgasms as opposed to big ones, haha

Op I am 31 weeks pregnant and Yes you can organism. The baby won't even feel it. The baby is well protected by its own personal water cushion. DH and I have been at it like rabbits and I organism and everything is fine... Go on and give it a bash.

organism!

You might find it happens while you're asleep anyway! Pregnancy dreams can be weird and wonderful.

I'm glad I'm not the only one! :D

Bigbrassband Yeah, I've had one of those, just not sure if the dream O was real or not!

I have woke up on a few occasions with the sensation that I've had an orgasm!! I lie there and try and figure out if it happened in the dream or if I really had one.

I had no idea this could actually happen???

Writer It surely can.

Oh, the pregnancy dreams They could bottle them and flog 'em for a fortune. I would never have believed it was possible to orgasm while asleep. Though it was probably a good thing, as the last thing on my mind for the entire 40w was sex...

yes!
Sex can help bring on labour (saved DD1, being induced), but only when the baby wants to come out.

DD1 had stopped growing at 39 weeks and was obviously in totally agreement with the consultant that it was time to leave.

Yes you can, apparently it's good sensations to your little one in their protective bubble. I used to feel movement right afterwards (quite far on) then peace for a while

I'm certain tgat very frequent orgasms are why dd was such a good sleeper. Although gave me bad bra ton hicks

Its completely fine! After i orgasm my womb goes solid and really easy to feel which ive always found weird. I also get braxton hicks after. But its never induced labour in any of my dc (even when over due) and now on dc 3. So enjoy and relax :-)

Yes! I didn't for the first 10 weeks as had previous losses and was very paranoid but since then, I have had a very active sex/masturbation life! Also, in my sleep, I have woken myself up a few times having an orgasm! Enjoy! :o)

I have been wondering about this too because when I have an orgasm my lower stomach goes rock hard and a funny shape for a couple of minutes. Is it still fine??

Same here luxemburger - it made me a bit panicky. My stomach just felt so tight.
