That ususlly means partial or complete placenta previa sex I'd not advise as the placenta could detached from the uterine wall which is fatal to baby.  Your obgyn should put you on pelvic rest or complete bedrest depending on severity.  I had it with my daughter desha as and it corrected itself by week 20and then I had a  anterior placenta and short cord. Some go the whole pregnancy with this and if it doesn't correct itself you will have birth by c-section.

My friend had this problem and was told no sex for a while. It corrected itself and she was given the green light to have sex.
