DB and I haven't had sex since the day after our embryo was transferred, that was 15 weeks ago. In first tri I was literally filled up with progesterone pessaries and creams in my vagina and had to rest to allow them to absorb. We didn't even think about having sex then.

Then after all the medications were stopped at the start of 2nd tri we fooled around one night and I O'd without penetration and I had these contraction/movement/cramp like feelings in my uterus for the next few hours which completely freaked me & DB out so we haven't gone there since.

However, I don't not want to have sex for the next 5.5 months if we don't have too. I think it would be healthy to have regular sex as I assume that O'ing can be good for internal muscle toning (I am just guessing here) in preparation for birth?

I am thinking it could be my uterus is out of practice and hence I felt the effects on my body after O more than usual? Is O more intense or the impact of it on your internal organs and uterus more intense when pg? Is this normal?

Anyone have any hints, advice or experiences they could share so we can relax and mentally feel more confident about giving it another go?
