These positions for heterosexuals are pregnancy-proof

Hormones are raging through your body during pregnancy. Your breasts become more sensitive, down under gets wetter, and your blood pumps faster through your body. No wonder your libido is working overtime. Sex is great, but with your huge belly, it can sometimes be a bit tricky. That's why we at LotteLust are sharing some positions for heterosexuals that are pregnancy-proof.

Spoon position
We all know this cuddly position: you lie close together, with the man behind you. This way, he can penetrate you from behind. This position is pregnancy-proof because it ensures that the penis doesn't go too deep, which can sometimes be an issue since the cervix is more sensitive during your pregnancy. It also gives the man the opportunity to stimulate your breasts with his hands. Oh yes!

On the chair
How it works: the man sits in a sturdy chair. With his back facing him, the woman sits on his penis. This position resembles the reverse cowgirl. The man can help the woman with the up and down motion or play with her breasts and clitoris. It's perfect for pregnancy because the woman is fully in charge of the speed and depth of penetration.

The ‘lazy’ position
In this position, you and your partner lie opposite each other on your backs. You sort of cross your legs; just like a scissor position. The man can penetrate you from the front this way. It's called the ‘lazy’ position for a reason: you can just lie back and relax. It's great during pregnancy because you're in a comfortable position and can also play with your clitoris for extra stimulation. Enjoy!
