9 OF THE BEST POSITIONS DURING PREGNANCY


What's the most comfortable position
When it comes to sex during pregnancy, your go-to positions may start feeling awkward as your bellY gets bigger. Sex is definitely still in the picture – but you'll probably be looking for new ways to make it happen.
Here are some ideas (complete with illustrations!) to get you started.

·    "Missionary" position
If you try missionary position after the first trimester, wedge a pillow under you so you're tilted, not flat on your back. And make sure your partner supports himself so his weight isn't on your belly.







You on top
This position can work throughout your pregnancy. Straddle your partner as he lies on his back. That way, there'll be no weight on your abdomen and you can control the depth of penetration.

Side-by-side, from behind
Lie with your partner facing your back and entering from behind. Keep some pillows handy for extra support as your pregnancy progresses.
Penetration tends to be shallower in this position. That's a good thing, because deep thrusts can become uncomfortable in later months.


From behind, doggy style
Support yourself on your knees and elbows as your partner kneels and enters from behind. A pillow can provide needed tummy support.


Side-by-side, at an angle
You each lie on your side, your bodies creating a V-shape. Wedge a pillow under your back for support as you face your partner, and rest both legs over his hip. This position allows him to keep most of his weight off your belly.

On a chair
Straddle your partner as he sits on a sturdy chair. Position the chair near a wall or another piece of furniture to lean on when you're ready to get up from this position.

Edge of the bed
Shift your bottom to the side or foot of the bed and lie back with your knees bent. (After the first trimester, wedge a pillow under one side so you're not completely flat on your back.)
Depending on the height of the bed, your partner can kneel or stand.


When intercourse is out
If sex with penetration is uncomfortable, you and your partner may want to find other ways to be intimate.

8 VIEWS MEN HAVE ABOUT YOUR VGN

Here's the lowdown on the vagina ... from a man's perspective. Much like fingerprints, no two  vaginas  are exactly alike and guys are well aware of it. Unfortunately, we as women seem to be left in the dark when it comes to this. Other than "she's loose" or "too tight," women have no idea what guys say about their womanhood.  The truth is that guys have just as much to say about vaginas as we have to say about their penises. No need to fret. After speaking with a handful of 20-something men and consulting with blogs of the male perspective, we've been able to derive the top vaginas seen and discussed among men. What men really think of 8 types of vaginas:  1.   The Bony Vagina What It Says About You:  Chances are if you're on the petite or skinny end of the spectrum, you may have one of these. This  type of vagina  is more narrow and bonier than most. The exciting part about it is that it allows for a tighte...

ORGASM: 7 ways to take her there

When I'm this close to orgasm—eyes squeezed shut, lips twisted in a Billy Idol sneer, cheeks glowing—the most descriptive word wouldn't be "passionate" or "erotic." It would be "determined." Because right then, at the edges of my fading consciousness, I'm worried that the phone will ring, my knees will lose their traction on the sheets, or my boyfriend will change position, and suddenly I'll be sliding away from that elusive peak instead of moving toward it. For the 75 percent of women who don't always reach orgasm during intercourse, this happens all the time. What we need is a fuse blower—that last shot of stimulation that blasts us into orgasmic never-never land. "Calling it a fuse blower is pretty appropriate," says sex therapist Ian Kerner, Ph.D. "Recent studies show that in order for a woman to achieve orgasm, the part of her brain associated with stress, emotion, and anxiety has to shut down.

SPAIN APPOINTS A MINSTER FOR SEX

Spain has appointed its first Minister of Sex whose job will be to get people busy between the sheets. The government hopes to boost Spain’s falling birth rate, which is one of the lowest in the developed world. Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy appointed Edelmira Barreira as the country’s sex tsar to get Spaniards to produce more babies. The country is faced with a population crisis, with fewer births than deaths recorded for the first time last year. Experts say long working hours and a culture of eating late at night and going to bed after midnight are partly to blame for the nation’s sex famine. Rafael Puyol, of the IE Business School in Madrid, said: “They do not help with making a family. Then when a child arrives it is even worse.” Since 2008 the number of births in Spain has plunged by 18 per cent. And the number of childless couples has nearly tripled from 1.5million in 1977 to 4.4million in 2015. Most Spanish women say they would like two or more children but in 20...
