POSITION IN LOVEMAKING

Side position – Either front to back or front to front. This position puts no pressure on the woman’s belly. It is convenient throughout one’s pregnancy and both partners can easily reach each other’s body part. It is similar to the “spoons” position in which the man holds the woman from behind.

Woman-on-top position – can be a sitting or lying position for the man. Either way, this position is more convenient especially for the woman because she can control the depth of penetration.





Back position – The woman is partly lying while the man is behind her. Similar to man-to-top but the woman has her back to her partner. This way most of the man’s weight is off her.

Remember that your enlarged abdomen may make sex difficult and unpleasant for both of you. But applying other position and being creative in sex may fulfill your sexual needs and help strengthen your bond as you get ready for shared parenting.
