    Default I just found out!

    Become a member to remove this ad.
    Good Afternoon Ladies! I would like to ask you wonderful ladies a couple of questions. I just found out today that my husband and I are pregnant. I have a few questions for you. Now keep this in mind when answering; I have had two miscarriages before and this time we are being careful. The first doctors appointment is on Valentines day!

    1. Is cramping normal? And can I take Advil for cramps?

    2. Is it ok to have sex? If not when is it ok to have sex?

    3. If it is not ok to have sex, can anal sex be a good substitute? (Not a fan but husband keeps asking!?)

    4. I just started taking over the counter pre-natal vitamins today. Is there anything else I should take?

    5. My diet? Should I chage it? What should I eat more of?


    Any answers you ladies might have would be greatly appreciative! Thank you and have a great day!

    First of all CONGRATULATIONS! i bet u are so happy, im actually trying too concieve but no luck yet.

    Ask your doctor first if its ok before taking advil. Some poeple could and some cant.

    ANAL SEX
    if you have hemorrhoids, remember that they tend to become larger during pregnancy. And if your hemorrhoids are bleeding and you have anal sex, you can lose a considerable amount of blood, which can endanger you and your baby. And just like when you're not pregnant, you should never go from anal to vaginal sex without cleaning up first and changing condoms if you're using one -- otherwise you put yourself at risk for bacterial vaginitis, and there's some concern that this infection can cause preterm labor or make your water break early. Also, unless you're in a monogamous relationship and know that you and your partner are HIV-negative, you should use a condom, because HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are transmitted through broken skin.

    HAVING SEX DURING PREGNANCY
    Assuming that you don't have certain complications, having sex shouldn't pose a risk to you or your baby.

    Your baby is surrounded and cushioned by amniotic fluid, and protected by your uterus and a layer of muscles. And the mucus plug inside your cervix helps guard against infection. (It's not impenetrable, though, so if you or your partner has sex with other people, you need to use condoms to protect yourself ? and your baby ? from sexually transmitted infections.) In certain circumstances, though, you may have to modify your activity or abstain from sex altogether for part or all of your pregnancy.

    You shouldn't have sex if you have any of the following conditions or symptoms:
    ? Placenta previa

    ? Premature labor in this pregnancy (even if it has stopped)

    ? Unexplained vaginal bleeding or discharge

    ? Abdominal cramping

    ? Cervical insufficiency

    ? A dilated cervix

    ? Ruptured membranes (your water has broken)

    ? You or your partner has an outbreak of genital herpes or feel one coming on. Also avoid intercourse and other genital contact for the entire third trimester if your partner has a history of genital herpes (and you don't), even if he has no sores or symptoms. The same applies to receiving oral sex if he has oral herpes (cold sores).

    ? Other sexually transmitted infections (unless you and your partner have been treated and follow-up testing was negative).

    Talk to your doctor about your diet on your next appointment, he will be able to tell you what u can and cannot eat.

    you can also also visit this site where i got this information Pregnancy, Baby, and Toddler Information, Baby Gifts, and Parenting Community - BabyCenter it has almost everything you will need to know. goodluck!

    Default I'm married...

    Well thank you for all the advice. I am married and happily so I am not worried about sexually transmitted diseases. But I do thank you for your advice. In some instances it should help.
