During pregnancy, couples are often asked "do they continue to have sexual intercourse"? On this occasion there are many opinions.

Legends about sex:.

Sexual intercourse can harm the fetus.

This definition is incorrect, since the male member is missing further than the uterus. The child is protected by the sexual organ of the woman, the shells in which the liquid is located. If the future mother does not experience stress during pregnancy, but, conversely, is relaxed and quite - it will only benefit.

Refusal of sex for the first time and the last three months of pregnancy.

This refers only to those women who have pathologies or fetal disorders. This will all be known at the time of the survey. It is advisable to be observed by a doctor and then he will accurately say whether sex life is possible. Maybe the ban is only for traditional sex.

This will cause premature birth.

No professional has found this myth of evidence. The birth will begin when the mother is ready. Typically, sex should be slow or moderate. The muscles of the uterus contract only for a while, and this will not do any harm to the fetus.

Assistant for childbirth.

The fact is that the male seed stores prostaglandin. An active substance that gives an analgesic effect. But it is contained in many organs, since this is just another legend.

The appearance of pain at the moment of sex.

To some extent - it's true. The body during pregnancy is completely reconstructed, there are changes in the organs.

In your favorite position, pain can arise, but it is not forever. It is necessary to look for other options and provisions. And also do not forget about affection before making love.

Apply condom.

If you use it as a means of contraception, then this is a myth. Repeat pregnancy is not possible.

Strictly impossible.

Some women lose the desire to have sex during pregnancy, while others, on the contrary, just want it. This, perhaps, with changes in the hormonal background.
