How to avoid miscarriage during pregnancy How to have safe sex during pregnancy

The issue that many expectant fathers and mothers are most concerned about during pregnancy is whether the couple can have sex. Having sex always has certain risks. How can we avoid this situation as much as possible?

Reasonable arrangements should be made according to the different stages of pregnancy, and the intensity should also be controlled well, not too light or too heavy.

First of all, do not have sex during the first three months of pregnancy. The early stages of pregnancy are a sensitive period for both the mother and the fetus. The fetus has just implanted and is not stable yet. If you force sex at this time, it is likely to cause miscarriage due to the vibration of the uterus. In addition, after a woman becomes pregnant, her requirements for sex will decrease due to changes in progesterone and endocrine mechanisms.

Secondly, you can have sex appropriately in the second trimester of pregnancy. During this period, the uterus gradually becomes larger and the amniotic fluid increases, which is a good protection for the fetus. Excluding strong impact and trauma, the probability of miscarriage is very small. It is relatively safe to arrange sex, but the body position must take care of the mother and the fetus, the strength must be controlled, personal hygiene must be paid attention to, and condoms must be worn! For pregnant women who have had habitual miscarriages, it is best not to have sex throughout the pregnancy.

Finally, you must not have sex in the late pregnancy. After 28 weeks of pregnancy, it is the late pregnancy. You cannot over-stimulate the uterus, which can easily cause premature rupture of membranes, infection of the fetus, placenta and maternal reproductive organs, induce fetal distress and cause miscarriage. As the due date approaches, the expectant father should pay more attention to his wife and protect the fetus.

Pregnant women in these conditions should not have sex. If pregnant women have the following conditions, they should not have sex even in the relatively stable second trimester.

1. The pregnant mother is pregnant with twins or multiple fetuses

2. There is a risk of miscarriage or premature birth

3. Unexplained vaginal bleeding

4. There is amniotic fluid leakage

5. Placenta previa

6. The couple has genital tract inflammation

Pay attention to hygiene

During pregnancy, women's own resistance will be reduced. To prevent women from getting sick, they should pay attention to the hygiene and cleanliness of their sexual organs before having sex to avoid bacterial infection. In addition, they should wear condoms, because the prostaglandins in male semen are attracted by the vaginal mucosa, which can cause strong contractions of the uterus after pregnancy, which will not only cause abdominal pain in pregnant women, but also easily lead to miscarriage and premature birth.

Choose the right sex position

When having sex during pregnancy, posture is the key. Prospective parents can choose to have sex with the woman on top, with both parties lying on their sides facing each other, and the woman kneeling on the bed with her hands on the bed, or the woman lying on the bed while the man stands.

Be gentle

During intercourse, men's movements must be gentle and not rough, insertion should not be too deep, frequency should not be too fast, and each time should not exceed 10 minutes.

1. It is beneficial to the harmonious relationship between husband and wife. The pregnancy reaction in the second trimester is relatively mild, and morning sickness is not so obvious. The expectant mother is in a more comfortable mood and has increased sexual desire. The husband also has this need. Therefore, sexual life at this time is very appropriate and can well maintain and promote the relationship between husband and wife.

2. It is conducive to the early development of the baby's abilities in all aspects after birth. Relevant studies abroad have shown that couples who have a harmonious sex life during pregnancy have children who develop language earlier and have quicker reaction abilities.

3. Can effectively protect the vaginal health of pregnant women. Studies have shown that there is a substance called semen plasmin in the husband's semen. The antibacterial effect of this substance is comparable to that of penicillin. It has great lethality to pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, thus protecting the vagina of pregnant women to a great extent. Although there are many benefits to having sex during the second trimester, it is also necessary to control the frequency of sex. It should be 1-2 times a week. Excessive sex can also have an adverse effect on the development of the baby. In addition, sex must be conducted when the pregnant woman is in a good mood, and the pregnant woman should not be forced to have sex.

It is normal to have no interest in sex during pregnancy. Because there are great changes in various aspects such as physiology and psychology after pregnancy, these changes will greatly affect the "sexuality" of expectant mothers. Some pregnant women may be in a good mood because they are pregnant with a baby, so their "sexuality" is also very high; but some pregnant women are troubled by pregnancy reactions, such as morning sickness, fatigue, etc., and have no "sexuality" at all. When it comes to the second trimester, as various early pregnancy reactions subside, the sexual desire of expectant mothers will generally be restored. However, in the third trimester, as expectant mothers' bellies become bigger and bigger, they become more and more tired due to inconvenience in movement, and coupled with various pressures of childbirth, their sexual desire will weaken again. Couples at this stage should understand and sympathize with each other. In order to ensure the safety of mother and child, they should be cautious. Give each other more kisses, hugs and love. I hope there will be a kind and lovely little angel in every family.
