Q: is nipple stimulation during sexual intercourse safe at this time (24 weeks) in pregnancy? i read that this can induce labor so i'm nervous about it?

: It can stimulate premature labor in patients who have an incompetent cervix that has not been treated. Ask your treating OB MD this question as he/she may have the "full picture" of your developing pregnancy and if there are any complications to date.
