So let's make Kpekus our antenatal topic for today


It's perfectly safe to have sex during pregnancy unless your doctor or midwife has told you not to.

Having sex will not hurt your baby. Your partner's penis can't penetrate beyond your vagina, and the baby cannot tell what's going on.

However, it's normal for your sex drive to change during pregnancy. This isn't something to worry about, but it's helpful to talk about it with your partner.

Some couples find having sex very enjoyable during pregnancy, while others simply feel they don't want to. You can find other ways of being loving or making love. The most important thing is to talk about your feelings with each other.



If your pregnancy is normal and you have no complications, having sex and orgasms won't increase your risk of going into labour early or cause a miscarriage.

Later in pregnancy, an orgasm or even sex itself can set off mild contractions. If this happens, you'll feel the muscles of your womb go hard. These are known as Braxton Hicks contractions and can be uncomfortable, but they're perfectly normal and there's no need for alarm. You might want to try some relaxation techniques or just lie down until the contractions pass.

When to avoid sex in pregnancy
Your midwife or doctor will probably advise you to avoid sex if you've had any heavy bleeding in this pregnancy. Sex may increase the risk of further bleeding if the placenta is low or there's a collection of blood (haematoma).

You'll also be advised to avoid sex if:

->your waters have broken – it can increase the risk of infection (ask your midwife or doctor if you're not sure whether your waters have broken)
->there are any problems with the entrance to your womb (cervix) – you may be at a higher risk of going into early labour or having a miscarriage
->you're having twins, or have previously had early labours, and are in the later stages of pregnancy

If you or your partner are having sex with other people during your pregnancy, it's important you use a barrier form of contraception, such as a condom, to protect you and your baby from sexually transmitted infections (STIs). ***side eyes***

Good and bad sex positions during pregnancy

While sex is safe for most couples in pregnancy, it may not be all that easy. You will probably need to find different positions. This can be a time to explore and experiment together.

Sex with your partner on top can become uncomfortable quite early in pregnancy, not just because of the bump, but because your breasts might be tender. It can also be uncomfortable if your partner penetrates you too deeply.

It may be better to lie on your sides, either facing each other or with your partner behind.


Spooning is my goto position but my libido has been up and down like a wave....but my DH doesn't bother.

I've read about husbands getting angry that their wife's are scared they'd hurt the baby or aren't in the mood for sex so much so they now resort to getting pleasure outside and putting their wife and unborn baby at risk.

So let's share our thoughts and suggestions...for those with low libido and doctor instructed pelvic rest, how are your DH's handling the situation and what alternative measures are we resorting to?
I'd also want to hear from our Daddy's in the house.

Mama u did better justice to d topic... Our first time mums will learn a lot from it. Thanks for ur activeness

threegees:
Don't know what sex is like anymore sef
Orgasm with bump? How?

Just make up ur mind to enjoy it. With communication ur dh will help u achieve that. Try different sex positions that are comfy for u.

Pearl05:
Sex during pregnancy is always the best for me. No worries of getting pregnant or menstruation palavar just to dey flex oneself as much as my strength can carry me. It helps me to relax afterwards and have good sleep.

onye nkem eji ya. D sleep after a better kpekus dey heavenly. My dh no dey allow me rest once am pregnant because if i put to bed i dey lock my kpekus house oo till after 3 or 4 months.

ToyosiR:

ToyosiR:
It is a kind of dance you engage with Hubby where no one sees you. that dance that makes you go to cloud 9 and come back.

Abeg, I be innocenty oooo.

Dnt mind Pearl05.... D day her husband will come back from his trip na neighbors go testify wetin them hear from their bedroom. I dey innocent biko.

Pearl05:
What is kpekus? Is it a kind of dance, food or movie?

Inside life oo hahahahahahaha kuku kill me ooo. Our kpekus mistress don't knw her profession again oo

Awesomemama:
Please how do i transition to giving other foods?
It's been 2weeks now since we clocked 6ms and no progress has been recorded.
Ive tried plain pap, pap and formula, cerelac and even just formula. She doesn't want any of those, not even water.
Don't want to waste money trying different brands of milk and cereal.
I even tried the beans and mackerel porridge, same result.
I've tried feeding her when she's hungry but she still refuses to take it.
Dh has tried feeding her on several occasions, ive used feeding bottle, plate and spoon, still same reaction. Today for instance I waited for about 5hrs since she sucked BM last and gave her pap, since she was obviously hungry but she still refused to take it. I had to give in, she's sucking and smiling now
Mamas please come to my aid o
What am I not doing right?

keep trying it is a matter of patience. Try playing nursery rythms during feeding time it helps.

The weather down here is so perfect for kpekus ministry... What do i knw sef. Where is Pearl05, ToyosiR, sugah and all our kpekus teachers... Mamas come and give us tips to be moving d ministry oo.
