Great Question, I would like to know what Dr. Q has to say............ I've always heard that it does not hurt the baby. But did not ask about positions. Good Luck Heather!!!
Sex while pregnant

Okay this may be an embarassing question but got to ask...i'm currently 18 weeks and have a belly...the bigger i get should my hubby and i do curtain positions and which ones are safe...just don't want to harm the baby
Haha... Sarah.. thanks for the title! :o) Oddly, not the first time I've been called that!! :o)
My favorite is doggie style. It just seems to feel the best and be easiest.. plus.. neither of us have to look at my hugeness! :o) Makes me feel a bit more comfortable too.
Spooning, laying on your sides, with him entering from behind might work, depending on his length, and the size of your butt. :o) My butt is a little too big right now for that one to work!
You can try propping up your hips with pillows and/or having him kneel in front of you while you are on your back... we don't really like that one much.
If he's really really good at propping himself up, missionary can still work.. I LOVE it.. but it seems like so much work for him.. haha
You can always be on top... the belly doesn't get in the way too much. As I've gotten bigger though, I feel like I'm squishing him, plus, I can't see him under my belly... and it really turns me off to not see him, and just see my own hugeness.. haha
His favorite is kind of a twist on the reverse cowgirl. If you don't already know what that is, it's where you are on top, but facing his feet, with your back to him. You would normally either sit straight up, or lean back on your arms. However, with a belly, its much easier to balance if you lean forward. It makes it really easy on you, gives you some good contact for stimulation, and my dh loves it, because it feels alot like doggie style, but he doesn't have to do any work. :o)
Those are the ones we've found to be best.
Dangit.. why did my doctor have to go and restrict me from sex! :( At least she might give the privilage back in 4 1/2 weeks!! Haha

hahaha. Meghan you rock!
My current favorite position is to lay with my butt on the edge of the bed, and my hubby standing in front of me. (Our bed is high so it's the perfect height) I usually prop myself up on a mountain of pillows to be closer to him. Anyway, its comfortable for both of us....he doesnt have to hold himself up, and I don't lose the intimate face to face that I love so much.

This the funniest post!!!! Meghan you crack me up. But I'm glad that you are here to give tips for the rest of us preggos!! :) I think it is more a mind thing with me.......I want to but then I get freaked out.......oh only 10 more weeks of pregnancy and then hopefully 6 weeks after......until it will be back to normal! :) Hugs ladies!
ha ha, glad i could make you laugh! I actually thought about being a sex therapist while i was in school for psychology. sex is one of my favorite things... so i've never been embarrassed by any part of it or talking about it... my poor hubby... hahahe tells me to shut up all the time cuz i'm so open about it
Keller... it's really different for every man... but for my dh.... the quickest way to get him in the mood is with a bj. :o) Most guys aren't too hard to turn on though.. just hint at what you want to do... and there they are... :o) Maybe whisper something in his ear to let him know you are in the mood... end that with a little nibble on his ear or neck.... or... just climb into bed naked... and yell for him to come in there, say you need help with something... He'll get the idea!!
It can be difficult if you don't feel sexy... thats why I like certain positions better than others.. and while i'm prego.. I prefer it to be dark.. or just the nightlight or tv light... that way, I'm not focused on my body.... just how he's making my body feel.
This might be totally tmi... but there for a while, I really wasn't enjoying him giving me oral sex, because I'd have to look down over my belly to see him doing it.. and I coudl see my huge belly.. and see the baby moving and stuff.. and it jsut seemed weird, and one night, he was laying on his back, and insisted I come up and position myself over his face... it was amazing... I wasn't looking down at him and seeing my belly.. i could hold myself up on the headboard.. and it totally gave him more access to everything.. so that became a new favorite for us!!! It was the first time I totally forgot i was huge and pregannt during sex. Sorry if that was way tmi for some of you! Like I said, I'm REALLY open!!! :o)
