  Re: sex Reply Contact Hello there! I have to say that it's been a challenge for me to be able to be intimate w/my husband; however, we've tried to make it work. I'm 30 weeks pregnant and I am the queen of heartburn/acid reflux I get it just about everyday! I would say obviously dont have sex while having heartburn, never tried it myself, but i'm sure it'll be more uncomfortable if you do. But when you two do get in the mood and you wanna try, definately dont let your belly get in the way... you can get on all fours and have him go behind you, you can lay on your side in a spooning position (the best position-i've tried), or even depending on how big you are he can even be on top of you (minus the chest to chest contact). One position that you can also try is you being on top of him, this one doesnt work for me as well being as though I get shortness of breathe real easy.. I wish you the best and I hope this helps!

  Re: sex Reply Contact Here's another that can be great depending on bed/OH height - you on the bed lying down, bum at the edge of the bed(very pelvic exam- style)...you can be propped on some pillows to alleviate heartburn. Your OH standing on the floor....an extremely modified version of man-on-top, but it can be fabulous! He can hold your feet/legs, you can let them fall open, feet can rest on the bed next to your bum- whatever's comfy for you! Have fun!!!!

This is the most comfy for me. having back problems it limits what we can do. I just prop my legs on his chest and shoulders and let him go. good luck to ya

We've tried all kinds of things and nothing seems to get me in the mood. If nayone has any suggestion for that, let me know. My poor husband is dying!

  Re: sex Reply Contact Have you tried toys? Sometimes I'm either very wet or very dry-- it goes from one extreme to the other, but when we bust out a "friend" for help that does seem to help me out quite a bit (and since I know I'll finish I am in the mood more as well)! This is way too much TMI - but oh well- LOL! Oh yea, and me on my back at the edge of the bed with him standing works REALLY well, too!!! Good luck girl!

Oh yeah I forgot about my friend! that always helps alot!!! lol I have to make dh wait while my friend gets me in the mood and then well lol ok tmi. Anyway I wouldnt suggest doing anything with heartburn... it turns into acid in your mouth and anyone who has acid reflux will tell ya that that is the worst. If i even think about the s word while i'm having heart burn it starts to heart worse !!!
