Hi I'm currently 14 weeks, and we don't want to impact our sexual relationship negatively after I give birth. I seem to have a higher sex drive during my pregnancy but sometimes orgasm before he does (after about 20 seconds need it again lol sorry if tmi) but I've noticed slight swelling and heaviness feeling in vagina recently.. has anyone else? It is more than once a day we have intercourse. Also I really want another one after but how long is the guidance to wait?

It's very normal for that feeling. There's a lot of extra blood flow going on down there.

Also the advice I believe is to let your body rest for a year I think it is.

Thanks, do you know when my bump will harden? I'm 14 weeks and I'm showing and unable to suck in but it's still not rock hard like most people say

Might be an idea to get through having this one and letting your body heal before you worry too much about having another baby or having post partum sex. You might feel very differently about everything once you’ve given birth and have a new born to look after. Keep an open mind and look after yourself mentally and physically.

Everyone is different.
With my first, I didn't get a visible bump until 30+ weeks. So there's no telling.

I can't help but feel so broody lol. But yes I guess I should get through this one first. I do have panicks sometimes that it will really hurt... how bad is the cramping during the pushing stage? And how long does the pushing stage usually last?xx

Everyone is different again.
The pushing stage is the least painful part.
But I was in established labour for 32 hours with my first.
Induced with my second but on the drip for 12 hours which is more painful than normal contractions.

But other people are only in established labour for not even an hour.
There's no telling.

Same with pushing stage.
My last baby I was only pushing for 3 minutes because she flew out.
But I know other people can be in the pushing stage for hours
