    I'm currently 37 weeks and 2 days pregnant.. which translates into 9 months and we still have sex. While of course the frequency is a little decreased and you cant have "rough sex", it is still possible.

    During a "normal" pregnancy, the only thing that can prohibit you from having sex is if her water is broken/leaking, etc due to the risk of infection. If her water breaks she should give birth within 24 hours anyway, so not much of a chance to really have that much sex in that case.

    If a certain position is uncomfortable to her, just find a new one. This might prove to be the most difficult part, with her being so far along. Personally, i put a few pillows under my chest and abdomen and doggy style is still a great position.

    Yes you can have sex with her, only thing that might be affected is how comfortable she may feel during sex.

    Unless shes high risk, you have absolutly nothing to worry about :)

    Im a month behind her and im doing fine!

    It is completely safe unless your doctor told you all otherwise....

    Could luck w/positions ... my tummy is so huge now w/my big boy inside it @ 7months it makes making love painful & hard.

    *TMI* We found that me laying on my left side & my husband coming in from the back is comfortable for both of us. (He is laying down too)
