Contractions after sex

I am 26 weeks pegnant and for about the past month when my DH and i DTD, if I O (sorry TMI) i end up having contractions.  I have a check up tomorrow and i am going to talk to my OB about it, but i was just wondering if anyone else has dealt with this or knows anything about it.  I am just concerned that the further along i get that it might become a problem.

O'ing causing your uterus to contract. There is nothing wrong with it. No, your doc wont tell u not to have sex. I get them too. Not a big deal.

As far as I know contractions after O'ing is completely normal??

The contractions that you may feel during and just after orgasm are entirely different from the contractions associated with labor.

I just found that online, of course talk to your OB and let him tell you for sure, but I've had contractions after O'ing since week 16 and I was told it's completely normal from my OB. Don't worry too much! Good luck to you :]

I am about to be 21 weeks and I noticed it too. I can really help you but if you could let me know what your doctor says that would be great.
