Since pregnancy stimulates sperm, it's important to provide adequate lubrication during pregnancy. [substeps] Wet the penis, scrotum, and rectum, using lubricating oils such as propyl (20 ml) or cystine (3 %). Consider touching your partner in bed or with your arms around him or her during intimacy. Try using distilled or booster lubricants for the rest of your activities. To avoid any vaginal discomfort during sex, use as much lube as you need to feel comfortable. [substeps] You can buy personal lubricants online or at your local drug store. Try choosing one or two types of vaginal lubricants that are oil-free and sealable, since these are less likely to slough off when pregnant. [substeps] Synthetic or silicone lubricants are some of the more lubrictive, but they won't work for pregnant women.
