Sex

[Lea18]

What's people opinions on having sex or an orgasm in early pregnancy with a history of miscarriages? Midwife said have a think after 1st scan at6 weeks and we seen heart beat but do need a rescan in two weeks ?
I seem to be really horny and frustrated haha
Haven't name changed because I don't have any shame pmsl
Thankyou for any help or info x

Maybe just help yourself in regards to orgasams, if they're small compared to when with your partner, and if your upto it helping your partner separately or at the same time without intercourse. I've not had a mc myself, i did have a chemical pregnancy but I don't count that as a miscarriage , so I might be unrea8sayingmaybe if you wanted intercourse badly to take it slowly and gently in the spooning position.

Thanks for your input, will have a think but that does sound like a step forward to it 🙂

I've had three miscarriages and my understanding is that the reason why lots of women in this situation avoid intercourse isn't that it'll do anything, but because it's common for intercourse to cause (harmless) spotting which panics women with a bad history. For what it's worth, no one told me not to and we did have sex in my first trimester and this fourth one was the pregnancy that stuck.

Aw that's good news Lisas congratulations, I might just ease into it and maybe intercourse after next successful scan

lisa makes an excellent point and is a wonderful successful story

If you’re worried, wait till you’ve had your scan. But having sex is good for a lot of things including closeness with your partner, sleep, relaxation so if you feel comfortable and up for it then go for it.

Yea your right i do feel separate from my partner in that way and he's never been a cuddly person, but always affectionate In words and helping out x
