Weird question but I can't find it on google anywhere.. Does having sex effect your cervical dilation? Like, does it make you seem like you're more dilated than you actually are or less dilated? Or does sex not effect it at all
I believe so! I agree with @xaviermom1221 I've also never heard of that.
@vinnysmomma, If there's no sperm involved though, I'm assuming it'll be okay?
@xaviermom1221, He didn't test anything else but he was saying if I was dilated I'd have to go to L&D and they'd run tests on me. It was over a month ago so I don't remember exactly what he said 😕 I just remember him saying if I've had sex within 72 hours it would effect a test
What all did he test? Because I don't think he could have been talking about dialation
@xaviermom1221, I got checked when I was about 30 weeks because of a labor scare. And I remember him telling me if I had sex within 72 hours it would effect the test but maybe he was talking about something else? I get checked again tomorrow
There's no way it could give you faulty results your cervix is complete shut and when you get further along in pregnancy it starts to open or "dilate". Did you checked recently?
As in, when your doctor checks for dilation. If you've had sex recently, will it give you "faulty" results
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Hi all AF is due 29th Sept for me feels like forever away. Has anyone tested yet or when do you plan on testing x

Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
Sex causes your uterus to contract, it does so for conception, so when the sperm enters its sucked up into the uterus. That's why there say sex is a good labor starter because of the contractions. And that's probably what your doc meant, he meant it could effect the stress test(contraction monitor)
