Expert Q&A
Question:
I'm 31 weeks pregnant, and my doctor said that I've dilated to a fingertip. Does this mean sex is out of the question?
Answer:
Sex is out of the question, because it could stimulate uterine contractions and cause you to dilate more, which will put you at a higher risk of preterm labor and delivery."
