" Question I&amp;#039;m four months pregnant &amp;amp;#8211; is it safe to use sex toys like vibrators?  And does it become less safe as my pregnancy develops?   Answer There are no inherent risks in using sex toys in pregnancy, although many doctors would be wary of very vigorous intercourse in early pregnancy (before 12-weeks), as this is the time most likely to produce a spontaneous miscarriage. It would however be wise to be careful of introducing too many non-sterile objects (such as dildos) into the vagina at this stage in pregnancy. This is because you may introduce an infection into the uterus (womb) through the cervix (neck of the womb) that could then affect either you or your baby.  If the uterus becomes over-stimulated (as can happen during jogging, for example), muscular contractions can be sparked off which may result in early labour.  As muscular contractions of the womb can occur during orgasm, the same problem can occur.  The best advice would be &amp;#039;everything in moderation&amp;#039; in pregnancy &amp;amp;#8211; sex being no exception! Hopefully this information will help you to enjoy your pregnancy to the full.
