A: You may experience some discomfort in any position, particularly during the last trimester, so be sure to let your partner—and your doctor—know if anything doesn’t feel right. But if you’re having a healthy pregnancy, it’s safe to have sex straight through (just keep in mind that in the final month semen and contractions from orgasm can sometimes induce labor).
The woman-on-top position is great, because it takes all of the pressure off your abdomen and allows you to control the speed and the depth of thrusting. Here, two other positions to try. Missionary alternative: Lay on your back at the edge of the bed, with knees bent; have your partner enter by standing or kneeling in front of you. This will keep your partner’s weight off your belly. The “C” position: Both you and your partner lie on your sides, with him behind you, facing your back. This position also keeps the weight off your belly, and it results in shallow penetration. (Deep penetration can sometimes be uncomfortable in the later stages of pregnancy.)
