Pregnant positions

[aimouse]

"The bump" has started to get in the way and we're struggling with positions.

She likes to be on top, but likes to be close (ie not sitting up).
She doesn't like it when we're not facing eachother.
We've never seemed to make it work if we're on our sides.
She likes to be in bed and under the duvet as getting cold makes her shy and ticklish which for her is a really bad thing.
(I'm happy in any position.)

Any suggestions.
We're going to be parents in about 2-3 months and I'm expecting a sex free zone for several months after that. So I need to make the most of it while I can!

Can she still lay on her back comfortably?

If so, you might try that on the bed or a sturdy table that's the right height (with pillows/padding, of course) with you kneeling or standing up.

I know she likes to be face-to-face, but the above position might work if she's on her side, with her legs pulled up as much as possible, and perhaps he body is angled.

You also might consider getting a sex swing asap if you have a place it can be secured; it'll be good for a variety of position and useful after the pregnancy as well.

In terms of being cold inhibiting sex, get a space heater and perhaps some fleece blankets (they're warm and lightweight). or a heated blanket she can lay on or have over her torso.

And her doctor has said sex is okay, right? Every pregnancy is different, and sometimes docs recommend abstaining in the 7th and 8th month, so as not to trigger an early delivery. That may not be the case here, though.

My husband and I really liked me on my back and him on his side and his top leg in between mine. Modified doggie style was good too. Have her leaning forward against the wall with her hands against itwith her knees on the bed. You can get close to her from the back and still play with her front.

Remember too that as she gets bigger she may still want sex but it may be uncomfortable. You guys may just have to improvise for while.

Just be carefull though. When the doctor gives the aok for sex after delivery make sure you have lube on hand. I love sex but that first time hurt like a mother. f###, and I didn't have a vaginal delivery! We ended up with a c-section after 24 hours of labor. For the first time we stopped and didn't finish. A woman's hormones are still out of whack and she may not produce enough of her own.

Congratulations on the baby to be.

The position that worked best for us was her sitting on the couch, close to the edge, with me kneeling in front of her. Our couch was just the right height for this to work. It also gave me freedom to use my hands to pay with her clit or tits.

You may want something to pad your knees.

You could try the same basic position with you standing, if your bed is the correct height.

First - congrats on becoming parents! You are about to embark on the most thrilling adventure of your lives. Second - not to be a wet blanket or anything - but after the fourth month - a pregnant woman should not lie on her back for very long as all the extra weight puts excessive pressure on the inferior vena cava - which is the large vein that carries blood from the lower half of the body back to the heart. Basically - it can cause big shifts in blood pressure.

That being said - two positions that worked well for us during all three of my pregnancies (and I was HUGE with the last one) were:

1) he knelt on the bed and leaned back on his hands. Then I straddled and guided him into me. I then either leaned back or rocked forward a little, depending on how I was feeling that evening.

2) I have a very narrow hope chest that sits at the end of our bed. We'd have him lie down upon it (on his back) and then I'd straddle him and adjust my position accordingly.

If you go here you will see pictures that describe what I'm talking about. Reference double trouble and bronco buster.

Unless her pregnancy is high risk and the doc has said no sex - you should be able to have sex well into the third trimester. As long as it's safe and she's ready and willing - take advantage of it . Trust me - as she gets closer to D-day thoughts of sex are going to go out the door.

Thanks every one.

My husband and I really liked me on my back and him on his side and his top leg in between mine.

This sounds worth a try! (Close to my favourite ... which sadly we never use )

Re health - thanks for those tips as well. We'd been told semen contains the same chemical docs use to induce and had been told of the potentially good reasons for sex coming up to term, but hadn't thought about prematurely inducing. Worth a thought!

Trust me - as she gets closer to D-day thoughts of sex are going to go out the door.

I wasn't expecting her to be interested at all once she got pregnant. The second trimester was some of the best sex we've had! So I'm happy. Just gonna have to build up the strength in my wanking arm ready for the next 6 months

Not sure I'm really prepared for parenthood - I'm still just a big kid at heart - oh well, how hard can it be?! 8)

*Chuckles evilly* - you have no idea. Talk to me again when the little one has been at home for about a week and you are bleary eyed from the lack of sleep.

Seriously though - it's all worth it. And being a kid at heart really helps when they get a bit older and want daddy to get down on the floor to play with them.

Not sure my knees will take it thesE days.
Oh, hang on, that's how this all started - me on my knees and "playing" ;(
