I'm curious about having sex during pregnancy. Is it safe, and if so, up until what month? I really want to make sure my wife and our baby are safe, so are there any extra precautions we should take?

View allMy wife is 9 months pregnant and her C-section is scheduled for this week, but she suddenly caught a cold and cough because of the rainy season. Can you recommend a safe cough syrup for the last trimester that won't harm the baby? Also, if her cough doesn't clear up before the surgery, could it delay the delivery date?
For cold in 9-month pregnant woman, use syrup like Benadryl or Grilinctus BM after OB consult—mild cold won't usually delay C-section unless fever or breathing issues occur.

I'm a bit worried. I had protected sex yesterday and just to be extra sure, I took a pregnancy test today which came back negative. But then, I got my period later, though it was a little late. Do I need to take another pregnancy test, or should I be concerned about getting pregnant? I really don't want to be pregnant right now. Can you help me figure this out?
It's reassuring that the pregnancy test came back negative, especially since you got your period, even if it was a bit late. Delayed periods can sometimes happen due to stress, hormonal changes, or other factors. Since you had protected sex and the test is negative, there's no need to worry about pregnancy at this point, but if you're still concerned, you can repeat the test or consult with your doctor for further peace of mind.
