Sex Is Back on the Table (Literally, If You Want)

Yes, the table works. Enjoy.

Alrighty, my fabulous femmes on the fetal express, let's put the rumors to rest. Contrary to the wild tales spun by grapevine gossip, being pregnant doesn't equate to vows of celibacy. That's right, sex is back on the table—literally, if you want. Whether you're just passing GO in your second trimester or polishing up your halo for the next round of sanctified cravings, it's time to chat about the joys of getting jiggy with it. Pregnant style. Couch not included.

Let's lay down some truths: That extra boost of energy you've found recently? It's not just for binge-cleaning every inch of your living space with the fervor of a nesting superwoman; it’s also nature’s cheeky nudge saying, “Hey, why not take this energy for a spin in the boudoir?”

"Pregnancy glow? It's not just your moisturiser working overtime."

And speaking of the boudoir, or you know, the dining room table for those particularly adventurous Sundays, here are the top five best and worst things about sex during your second trimester. Because hey, we all know it pays to be prepared—imagine it as another step in scouring birth plans, minus the slight panic.

The Best 5 Reasons to Keep the Love Train Chugging

  1. Energy Surge: Say goodbye to that first trimester slump. Suddenly, you're a supercharged engine ready for adventure, whether that means rearranging furniture or getting romantic.
  2. The Feel-Good Vibes: Endorph ins, lovely endorphins. Cue the trumpet! Nothing says “I'm glowing” quite like a natural cocktail of happiness hormones.
  3. Bonding Time: It’s not just between you and your partner. It’s a sacred trinity now—sheets, you, and bae. Baby’s part of the crowd, but don’t worry; they’re quite the snoozer.
  4. Body Changes Booster: Larger breasts and a full, luscious figure? Yas, queen! Gaze in the mirror snapping selfies like you’re Beyoncé on a glorious day.
  5. Confidence Galore: If you can grow a human, you can host a bedroom symphony. You’re powerful, magnificent, and a bit of a temptress, if we’re honest.

The Worst 5 Things You Might Trip Over

  1. Frequent Pee Breaks: Romance pause, bathroom rush. It’s like an ongoing game of Freeze Tag with your bladder calling the shots.
  2. Positional Puzzles: Not every angle is dream team material. Some maneuvers may require the athletic prowess of Cirque du Soleil—nap afterward mandatory.
  3. Random Uncomfortability: “Hey, that’s my kidney.” Everyone says pregnancy pillows are awesome for relaxing, but maybe they can do double duty?
  4. Phantom Gas: Let’s be upfront. You laugh, you lean, it happens. A disclaimer: it’s all natural.
  5. The Third-Wheel Kic k: Baby’s first dance party might make its presence known. Don't freak; they’re a captive audience.

Alright, sexy sirens, quirk up, take it in stride! Every empire requires a strong foundation—whether that’s in a legging-clad jog or solidifying that spousal bond during the lavender twilight of a Tuesday evening.

Need something to slip into?

Emamaco’s got the goods to keep you feeling secure and sultry. Picture this: sliding into a pair of maternity leggings that hug every curve like a romance novel come to life. Who says running to the store can't be seductive?

Your body’s transformed into a wonder of the world, and it's okay if you need an entire wing to house the new emotion-heavy rollercoaster. Infuse those dopamine-pumped mornings with laughter, layer on a bit of curiosity with new experiences, and if ever in doubt, channel your inner goddess with a coy grin. Remember, you have that glow for a reason—it’s time to strut your stuff!

"Stra ddle the comical, the glamorous, and the downright wild. You’ve got a passport to them all."

In the pursuit of balance, throw in spontaneous dance parties now and again, full-bore belly laughs, and a particular joy in discovering that maybe yoga-ball-based acrobatics are for you… or moral support on a spa day couch. The road through your second trimester is paved with intention and incredible lingerie moments. Give yourself permission to dance on it like it’s the Oscars' after-party.

Whether the evening ends with wine (non-alcoholic, of course) by candlelight, or a serene retreat in hydrating face masks, take every opportunity to commemorate the journey in your way—and if that's with a perfectly timed joke about swollen feet, all the better!

Final Words with a Wink

Pregnancy is packed with infinite firsts. It's the perfect moment to make plain cheese pizza feel like five-star dining, growing a baby genius one step (or dip) at a time. Revel in it, laugh through it, and when the moment strikes, embrace your sauciest dance floor—ahem, table.

You're glowing, darling. Flaunt it.
