A Sexual Intercourse Towards Birth is Necessary! Here is the reason

In general, surely sex has a positive affect for the body, physically or even psychologically. However, what Mom must know is sex when pregnancy is also have more benefits, especially if it’s done just before birth. According to a research, it is known that having intercourse during pregnancy, especially in the final months such as the eighth and ninth months can help open the way for the baby, so as to facilitate the delivery process. That’s why it hopes that Mom can considered to having sex during pregnancy before birth, because the benefits are enormous for the delivery process.

When pregnant, having sex is a bit troublesome, especially when considering the changes in the body of Mom who now has limited movement. But taking into account the benefits for childbirth, many women are then interested in trying it. Not without a reason why many women have sex during old pregnancy. The reason solely to help the labor process to make it faster and smoother.

This is caused because during intercourse a person's body will release a lot of hormones. Hormones such as the endorphin hormone, oxytocin, and DHEA are also released through a section called the pituitary. Well, the hormone oxytocin itself is a hormone that is useful to encourage the mobilization of muscle fibers that are widely used during contractions.

Then, how about the other hormones? What Mom needs to know, hormones like endorphins are a type of hormones that are useful for making the body more relaxed, so that your mind can stay calm and not tense even though labor is getting near. While the DHEA hormone is a hormone that is very useful for strengthening bones and muscles. This is useful for strengthening muscles and bones during labor later.

An eight-month pregnancy can be a starting point for Mom to further enhance intimate relations with your husband. If Mom is a little afraid to do it in pregnancy before birth, then you can reduce sexual activity gradually at nine months of pregnancy. But keep in mind, don’t stop completely because the sex that made in the previous months will certainly not bring specific benefits for Mom’s smooth delivery.

When the labor starts, hormones in Mom’s body will begin to be out of balance, especially hormones such as progesterone and estrogen. And this is what causes the hormone oxytocin to be released by the Mom’s body, which then causes contractions in the form of Braxton Hicks which become the dominant force at the time of labor.

This contraction can be said to feel like a contraction that people feel when having sex, because the hormones released are exactly the same as the hormones that Mom secretes during labor. So, now Mom is already know that sex during pregnancy before birth is not dangerous and actually beneficial.
