Air in vagina during sex

[jpleaner]

Hi folks,

Got a slightly graphic one for ya. My wife, who is 13 weeks along, and I were having sex this morning and during the act she released a fair amount of air from her vagina. Now I have heard and read that blowing air into her is dangerous during oral sex and can cause embolisms, but can the same be said for this mornings situation?

Has anyone else had these "farts" occur?

Is this normal? Is this dangerous for the pregnancy?

Sorry for the TMI! :-)

I have no idea Jason. Can she ask her midwife/obstetrician next time she sees them?

Ok, I'm no medical expert or anything, but an embolism? I haven't heard that before and can't see it as being physically possible? The air would somehow have to make it into her bloodstream and unless you used some sort of non-biological implement (an industrial strength vacuum cleaner on reverse perhaps?) I don't think the air would make it that far.
The release of air from the vagina can happen in some positions... Can't really remember if it's happened to me before, but I wouldn't think anything of it if it did.
I'm sure everything is just fine with the pregnancy. I've always been told that intercourse is safe for most people during pregnancy - the only reason I'd worry was if there was any bleeding.
All the best for the rest of the pregnancy

I'm with Snacks there.

I've never heard any of those "facts" re embolisms. I don't think that is true at all.

I don't think there is any danger involved here.

Nah, its usually the position you are in and I wouldn't think it would hurt baby..

I have heard not to actually blow air up there as it can be dangerous... but I dont know if thats a myth.

However its very common for air to get pushed in there during intercourse/certain positions, so I don't think there's anything to worry about there.
