sex and pregnancy

So i know that sex is safe during pregnancy, but what about the position. Seems like as you get bigger the missionary position would crush the baby. Is that right?

the last 2 weeks of pregnancy I couldnt have sex anymore, my dd was 9lbs 7ozs born one day before her due date and I was so pregnant I could barley move, but prior to that I would be on top

You can do it however you feel comfortable. If missionary works for you, just try not to stay on your back too long. It's all about how you feel.

My hubby was able to keep himself high enough to not squish baby. But "doggie" style worked well.

Thanks. I've been on pelvic rest for six weeks and finally got the ok for sex but I'm bigger now and its a little more awkward.

When I got so big and felt like it was squishing the baby, DH had me get close to the edge of the bed and him stand up if we absolutely had to do it that way lol... It seems easier on top but I got so embarrassed because my belly had gotten so big that I couldn't see DH LOL.... We found lying on our sides in bed was one of the easiest ways to do it.
