Masturbate while pregnant

I masturbate while being pregnant . The thing is I feel really weird about it knowing that I have a baby inside me . Sounds weird but I feel like I don’t want my kid to pick up bad habits, and from a spiritual perspective I’m not to sure about it all…Is it normal to feel a bit strange about this ? would love to hear other opinions….

They have no idea whats happening but potentially benefit from a bunch of excess happy hormones

just don’t do it if you’re having a moral dilemma. Your kid has no idea what’s going on and won’t pick up any “bad habits” ☠️

They have no idea what's going on. I think sex and masturbation are both very healthy during pregnancy!

I promise you, the baby isn’t affected at all. If anything, it actually has proven benefits! The serotonin release is good for both you and baby.

I feel like it’s normal and I also have bad habits too. So masturbating while pregnant also make your body feel relax after that and reduce stress too so don’t worry about it ^^

Omg when i was pregnant with my first i stopped too because i felt like God would punish me through the baby 🤣🤣 Thought i was like the only one with the weirdness!

Lmao what bad habits? Masturbating isn't a bad habit. It's human nature and pleasure seeking/gratifying. .... just what?

I think it's natural.

@Jessica 😂

Tbh I did masterbate while pregnant and I think you are overthinking this a bit .. not trying to be mean but there’s no possible way your baby would pick up any bad habits by you doing that .. its actually a recommended way to help you go into labor closer to your due date .. so I wouldn’t worry or think into it to much as doing that isn’t wrong ❤️

@Delaine tbh I guess it’s more a moral thing than a physical thing - I know baby won’t be affected physically lol 💖😊 anyway this is reassuring- thank you

@Ellie lol thank you 💖

@Hannah thanks for the reassurance lol 💖

@Corinne thank you 💖

The baby is completely safe, me and my partner were still having sex up until I gave birth. My midwifes were telling me it's perfectly fine so I reckon masturbation is safe as well

My thoughts aren’t about my baby picking up bad habits but more when having an orgasm my stomach muscles tighten and after I’m like sorry I didn’t squash you did I 🙈🤣

No no no please don't demonise masturbation, it is a completely natural thing. Using this language around ur child will damage their relationship with their own body and sexual desires. It will make them feel so ashamed and destroy their self confidence. It is not immoral or a bad habit it is a natural release that u should educate ur child on when they approach puberty so they can develop a healthy understanding and positive attitude towards sex.

My midwife even recommended it at the last couple of weeks of pregnancy!

Masturbation during pregnancy will only benefit your baby as it relaxes the body and increases oxytocin the happy hormone which benefits baby. Later on it can help soften the cervix ready for delivery. Also as @Hazel said it is so important not to be native abiut exploring your body . It is totally natural and virtually important in my eyes.
