DH and I started having sex again (doing anything to get this kid out!) and it has been months. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. In fact, I even enjoyed it! We were able to do any position. You have to be creative with missionary as the tummy gets in the way, but it can still work.

i'm not allowed to have sex for 9 months because of low lying placenta. i think it will be a year then, because i will be busy and not ready straight away after the baby's born. Sorry no advice

I had sex again yesterday after two weeks without it (not quite 3 months lol) and I didn't find it particulaly painful until afterwards when down there felt like it was on fire! I'd definately recommend using some kind of lubrication and perhaps entry from behind/side, as pepperflake said.

Also I worry about my OH doing stuff like that all the time, especially when he always used to want sex and then all of a sudden he didn't for a whole fortnight. I was going mad thinking he was getting it elsewhere! But I know he loves me and would never do that and I'm sure you're OH is exactly the same, you're having a baby together after all!

Just take it easy and you'll be fine emma.
Your OH might even find it a bit odd......my BF gets in the mood but then sees the bump and it puts him off and the reality its a baby in there makes him feel it isnt right LOL!!
He looks like a nice bloke and im sure he has been missing you as much as you have him. Also think of it this way......if he did anything at sea then its HIS LOSS!!
My dad was in the navy for 34 years and he said it was always on a plate for him but all the women offering were slags,dirty and full of disease so that instantly put him off lol sorry to be crass.

I've been feeling a little guilty on my OH by not being very interested in sex and the bump now puts him off knowing she's in there! Funnily enough i googled this morning and found these 'safe/easy positions':

• Lie sideways. Having your partner on top demands increasingly creative gymnastics as your tummy swells. But lying partly sideways allows your partner to keep most of his weight off your uterus.

• Use the bed as a prop. Your bulge isn't an obstacle if you lie on your back at the side or foot of the bed with your knees bent, and your bottom and feet perched at the edge of the mattress. Your partner can either kneel or stand in front of you.

• Lie side-by-side in the spoons position, which allows for only shallow penetration. Deep thrusts can become uncomfortable as the months pass.

• Get on top of your partner. It puts no weight on your abdomen and allows you to control the depth of penetration.

• Enter from a sitting position, which also puts no weight on the uterus. Try sitting on your partner's lap as he sits on a [sturdy] chair.

The only problem we have had is that it hurts me quite a lot. Afterwards as well I get really bad tummy cramps. I have done since 1st tri though so it's nothing new.

But don't force yourself if you don't want to do it.

Think all the others have gave you the best advice I agree with the spoons position!! All you have to do now is look forward to him coming home
