In this video Jacquelyn discusses her experiences with doctors’ advice in China regarding sexual intercourse.

*This post should not be considered medical advice. Always get medical advice from a trusted doctor.

Here are some benefits sexual intercourse during a healthy pregnancy:

  • Intimacy between you and your partner
  • Hormone in semen that can cause “practice” contractions
  • Strengthens the pelvic floor
  • Releases oxytocin “the happy hormone”

You should absolutely avoid sexual intercourse if:

  • You have placenta previa
  • Your water has broken
  • Carrying multiples
  • You are at risk for preterm labor
