Sexuality During Pregnancy

It is safe for most women to have sex during pregnancy. Your needs and desires may change as the pregnancy progresses. Discuss these feelings with your partner and work to find comfortable activities that will please both of you.

There may be times your healthcare provider will advise you to avoid sex. You should abstain from sexual intercourse if you have pain, have symptoms of preterm labor, have leakage of fluid, or any vaginal bleeding.
