Is It Safe to Have Sex After You Lose Your Mucous Plug

I have been told by various doctors and midwives that not only is it safe, it will help induce labor. Go for it!

i would call your ob right away and let them know what's going on. he or she would be the best person to determine what would be safest for you and your baby. good luck!!

A., As a mother... I would say no just to be safe, especially since it seems this is your first full term child. Plus your going to be induced on Monday and it might break your water?? Check with your OB/GYN and do exactly as he/she says. Congrats & Good Luck as a Young New Mom! C. C

I see you have gotten two conflicting sets of advice. You can always talk to your doctor about it if you are concerned. I would agree with those who said it is completely safe. Now if your water starts leaking or breaks, then no, you shouldn't because of the risk of infection. And in some cases it will help start labor.

Our doctor actually suggested it so we could induce labor and it worked...I went into labor within 24hrs after losing mine.

NO,No,and Nooooooooo!
My doctor wouldn't even let me sit down in a tub of water for fear of bacteria getting up where it didn't need to be... so for Pity sake,, have some self control... It can wait! Good luck

Yes, it is safe as long as your water bag is intact. Sex may even bring on labor, but don't count on it!

They say no because there is no protection between baby and outside germs now.

Not only is it safe it is also a good way to start labor. I say go for it. You are already at full term so why not?

Go ahead!! it may actually put in labor before the 2nd. that's what i've always heard anyway. and i'm sure you are READY!! Good luck!!

Go for it & enjoy! Orgasim can even aid in starting labor. Once your water breaks, though, its no-no.

there is supposed to be a small amount of blood in it. and i think you should not have intercourse it will cause an infection. you may be going in to labor soon also if you are having any kind of leaking no matter how small go to the hospital. it feels like you have to pee and are peeing a little this will be fluid and if it leaks to much you will have a dry birth. good luck and god bless you!!!

I would try to be as careful as possible since this is the third pregnancy but first child. I would would contact my obgyn. ASAP!!!

Good morning A.. No honey it isn't safe to have relations at this time. You could introduce bacteria into your system and possibly cause your baby problems. That, of course, is only my opinion based on multiple pregnancies. Good luck.
