Could sex at 37 weeks pregnant jostle the baby around enough to cause brain damage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: your baby is well protected. Any sex that would cause damage to the baby would cause damage to you. So unless you have severe damage to your vagina or abdomen as a result of this episode your baby is fine.
