I didn't have sex my whole pregnancy with my first. That includes from before I even knew I was pregnant. I had no issues delivering.
I haven't had sex since I was 5 weeks pregnant, I'm 36 weeks now, and I have no plans to for a long time since I'm not in a relationship. I think about this every once in awhile, but if you think about it, there's a big difference between even the largest guy and a 7-8 lb. baby...I doubt it'd make much difference. Besides, I'm sure there are a lot of us in this situation, even those with husbands, either because they just don't want to have sex while pregnant or because they're military and away from home, etc. We'll be alright.
With my first 2, I'm pretty sure I never had sex with my husband at all after falling pregnant (why did it take me another 5yrs after that to realise we werent in love?!!!) and I had 2 vaginal births...dont panic!!
Don't worry. If that were true I know a TON of women that wouldn't have had vaginal births.
Sex may help you stay "stretchier", but it's not necessary. Plus a lot of women want nothing to do with sex in their last trimester, and there are guys that are to scared to do it!
You'll be fine.:-)
I neverr had sex with my first and gave birth naturally the only thing that caused me to have problems is the fact I wouldn't relax and I have a blood clotting issue.
I haven't had sex n I'm 38 weeks. I've never heard of sex making a way for the baby. Its take 7 yrs for ur vagina to go back to the way it was b4 u started having sex. The tightness may jus b from the baby it'll stay that way as he/she grows. But talk to ur doctor...good luck:)
