Sex during pregnancy

Im 31 weeks & me and my husband had sex but afterwards Ifelt some pain on my belly. The next day I was having pains in my belly throughout the day. The day after that I didn't have any more pains. I'm scared that I might be hurting the baby. Am I ? Should I stop having sex?

Same thing happened to me when I had it two weeks back.  It continued to hurt my belly and lower back for the whole night and next day. It was just like period pain. I am so afraid that I didn't attempt for it again since then. What I have been told is that could be contractions as the body prepares itself for labor.
I am 36 weeks today.

Sex doesnt hurt the baby, but your hubby could've hit your cervix which will cause you some pain, or sex can trigger contractions.
