Sex During Pregnancy—

What is The Best Comfortable Position?

 

The main thing about sex during pregnancy is to be sure you are in a position that is comfortable for you both, while ensuring there is not weight on the uterus or the pregnant stomach. Here are a couple of suggestions for pregnancy sex positions, however if you are feeing unsure about sex during pregnancy its always best to chat with your doctor for peace of mind.

One of the main things is to have a good sense of humor when experimenting with positions when you’re pregnant, as sometimes maneuvering a pregnant stomach can be harder than it looks! Its always handy to have lots of pillows close by as well.

On the side

Place yourself in the spooning position with the man behind the women. This position can be very comfortable as there is not a lot of pressure on the stomach and the women is not required to make a lot of movement. This position is also good because it allows for plenty of close contact and he is able to stimulate the clitoris during sex. The man very much controls the pace of movements, so its very important to communicate during sex so he knows if he is going to fast or slow etc.

Side by side

This is another good position as it does not put a lot of weight on the abdomen, however this position might require some maneuvering and patience. It might be tricky actually getting the penis in, depending on the size of the stomach. Not the ideal
pregnancy sex positions when she is heavily pregnant. This position is a very romantic one as both partners are able to gaze into each others eyes – or burst out laughing if you’re having trouble getting the position to work!

Woman on top

This position is good as the woman is in control of the depth and angle of penetration. The position does require some balance, and in the later stages of pregnancy the position might be tiring for the woman.

Doggie Style

On the hands and knees, this rear entry position is another good one to try and makes a change from the previous suggested positions. This position can be varied to, for example try it on the bed, or vary the position even so the woman is standing and resting her hands against a wall. This position is also good for G Spot stimulation.

These are just a few suggestions to try when you’re pregnant. Remember to keep your sense of humor alive and pillows close by!
