So umm.. tmi but does anyone else cramp after sex now that you are pregnant? It scares me like I…

It's normal. It starts happening to me right away once in pregnant. Just the extra blood down there makes it extra sensitive.

Okay good. I'm just so cautious about the baby and I'm so scared I'm gonna hurt it doing anything

@mokai08

That would be contractions. Sex irritates your cervix causing your uterus to contract. Very normal and will probably get more intense the further you get.

@mrschanandlerbong95 so is it bad to have sex during pregnancy?

I always got Braxton Hicks afterward

Unless your pregnancy is high risk, you should be fine to have sex

@jaquelinerachelle, no, not at all. This is my third pregnancy, it’s happened to me every single one and never given me any problems.

Good. I was about to give it up until after the birth. Lol @mrschanandlerbong95

@phoebesmommy can you get that throughout the entire pregnancy or only the last trimester

@jaquelinerachelle, you mean Braxton Hicks?? I got them really early on in my second pregnancy. I was also always dehydrated and bad at pushing water. If you are having tightness in your belly like all around your belly I would call that BH. Make sure you drink lots of water and if you’re standing, sit or lay down

@phoebesmommy oh I mainly drink water. And yeah I meant Braxton hicks. But God that takes a little of my fear away

I got them after sex too. Totally normal with some pregnancies unless they are consistent and increase in intensity.

@phoebesmommy I mean I'm still cramping and it happened at like 4 or 5. But its not bad cramping. It's more like uncomfortable cramps. That make me want to switch positions or something

Yeah that sounds like BH maybe drink more water and if you keep getting cramping, perhaps time them

Okay thank you! I appreciate all the advice! You're awesome! @phoebesmommy

Anytime 😘 and I hope it’s nothing!

@jaquelinerachelle I used to. Yes. Normal. No worries
