Do sex and pregnancy go together?

Just like your mood and fitness level, your sex drive can change while you're expecting. Pregnancy can alter the frequency and quality of sex.

Every woman reacts in her own way, and it's not a choice.

• Some women have an increased desire to have sex when they are pregnant, and that's good for them!
• Others have a low libido, and this is no reason to feel guilty.

If the desire is there, but you're worried about your baby, know that sex is safe, unless you have a medical contraindication.
