Patient discussion about gravid.

Q. Is it safe to have sex with my pregnant wife? My wife and I are 4 months pregnant and are expecting our first baby. Can we have sex? I am afraid it will harm the baby.

A. There is no problem to have sex during your pregnancy, unless the Doctor advised against it due to complications. It is even good to have sex and will make you both happier and calmer.

Q. Does any one have any advice on how to get pregnant? It seems like my husband and I have tried everything to become pregnant for the last three years.

A. i think its time for a fertility dr.they can get just about any body pregnant.

Q. I'm scared to be pregnant... vomiting and to give birth...Please tell me it's fine!!

A. since how long are you pregnant? it seems that it just started. if you vomit a lot it is imperative that you drink enough water - still water like Vitel, Vichy, L'eau d'Evian that you get in your country and find bottles in glass - not in plastic! Plastic is anorganic and can't be assimilated in our bodies. there is no reason to be scared if you vomit. this means that you don't drink enough water. i know this. believe me and you will see that in the next days you will not vomit anymore. just keep me informed please!
