Is a big belly having sex?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, in this case, it is recommended to pay attention not to be too frequent. Generally speaking, the impact of sexual activity on the fetus during pregnancy is mainly manifested in the first three months and the last three months of pregnancy. The first three months are more likely to cause miscarriage in pregnant women, while the last three months often lead to premature birth in pregnant women. Sexual activity during the rest of the time has a relatively minor impact on the fetus. Therefore, it is important to strictly control the timing to avoid accidents.
In the second trimester of pregnancy, the placenta has already formed, and the pregnancy is relatively stable. Although it is less likely to cause miscarriage due to minor stimuli, sexual activity should not be too frequent or intense. The male's movements should remain steady, even during sexual climax, when the movements should be slow. Paying attention to the sexual position is also very important. Couples can choose some suitable positions to avoid pressing on the abdomen. If sexual activity is too frequent or intense, there is still a risk of miscarriage and premature rupture of membranes.
