Marital Sex

Hi! My husband has not been wanting to have sex with me during my first trimester cause he was scared to hurt me or cause miscarriage. We’re moving to 13 weeks now. And he thinks he can put off sex for 7-8 more months till end of confinement. He assumed every couple was like that. Is it really???? #advicepls #firstmom

But after giving birth, you do what makes you feel comfortable and when you have fully healed.

My gynae said its actually okay to continue being intimate as long as you feel okay to do so (women will experience hormonal change during the early trimester period, which may make you less inclined towards intimacy).
