Is sex an option in the last few weeks of pregnancy?

My husband is coming back from the military on FEB 22nd, and I'll be having the baby on Feb 29th, but I'm not technically due till March 7th. Do you think or know what your sex drive becomes in the last remaining weeks of pregnancy? (Sorry I'm not trying to be vulgar--)

It really doesn't matter because when your husband comes home your going to be ready to jump on him. I know you miss him that much.

It all depends on how your body is really.
I really, really recommend you ask your doctor. Some people are okay to have sex the last weeks of pregnancy, some aren't. And obviously you want to do that right thing. So, thats the best thing I can suggest. For your saftey and your baby's.

my husband and I had sex the night before I went into labour. without sounding crude I was horny as hell. I jumped hm every second night in the last 2 weeks before birth and if he didnt like it he didnt say anything. you can find loads of comfortable positions and it wont hurt the bub unless you have been told not to have sex by a doc. go for it ENJOY!!!

If you have had a 'normal' pregnancy thus far there is nothing wrong with having sex at the last few weeks. By what you have said in your question, it seems to me that you should be fine. However the only thing that would happen is that sex can 'bring on' labor. But then again so can a lot of other things, like walking or nipple stimulation. If you aren't due until March and you are sure that you are 'on target' for that, I mean that everything was calculated correctly as far as time of conception I would say that you should be fine. Now, I do not know how long your hubby has been away or when the last time that you were intimate with him, but he or you might find that having sex might be difficult. Positioning is important also. You might want to consider 'spooning' or 'doggie-style' . Regular missionary style might be uncomfortable for the both of you. I hope that I was helpful, Good Luck.

Sex is fine at that stage. Sometimes your doctor will tell you to have sex to try to induce labor, so if you do it a lot when he comes home, your bundle of joy may come sooner. Don't worry, by that time your baby will be perfect whether he/she comes on the 22nd or the 29th. Congrats on both things.

Yes, it's an option. Choose a position that is comfortable... (cowgirl, doggie, etc)... and don't be too rough, lol

Yes it is, but be prepared just in case it causes you to go into labor. It may just cause braxton hicks, but just know that this far into your pregnancy it's highly posibble for you to go into labor. I was a week and a half over due and really uncomfortable, my doctor told me that sex works the best to trigger labor, so about 2 hours after everything was said and done, I was having contractions! The next day I had my beautiful daughter!

It could be a plus if he is being sent away again, at least he would get to see the birth!

Have a nice time with your husband
Good Luck!
