Sex positions when pregnant?

Now that I'm at 22 weeks and getting bigger, I'm noticing that my and my hubby's normal positions (missionary, me on top leaning over to be face-to-face), are starting to feel a little weird. What are some pregnancy-friendly sexual positions that anyone else has figured out? Sorry if this thread is a little graphic; I'm used to talking pretty frankly about sex but most of my really close girlfriends haven't had kids yet so they're just no help on good sex positions when pregnant! :-)

Thanks, everybody! When my husband gets back from field training (he's in the Army) we'll definitely give some of these a try!

I have had the same problem lately as well, and so far I have found that laying on my side has been a lot better then most other sex positions when pregnant. You may also want to try doggystyle. This may not be what is comfortable for you, but it wouldnt hurt to try and see.

Here are some good sex positions to try when pregnant: Reverse Cowgirl style, Swing style, Wheelbarrow style, or get your Hubby on his knees with you laying on your back in front of him and wrap your legs around his waist. Or your ankles on his shoulders. You could also lay on your back with a pillow under your lower back to help prop you up, have your legs up and he could do it in a missionary fashion just facing differently. Stand up and lean over something with him behind you, or have him put you on a counter or table and stand in front of you. Hope this helps!

My husband and i always do doggystyle when i start getting to big... OR we both lay on our sides and he is behind me. with one of my legs back over him....Good luck..it took us 3 pregnancies to figure out a comfortable sex position when pregnant.
