The way that i make myself come is by lying on my side, squeezing my kegels and my thighs together and sort of rocking rhythmically.i'm 17 weeks pregnant. i know orgasm is safe in pregnancy, but the way i'm doing it can decrease oxygen of my baby?

Oxygen delivered to your baby is through the placenta and umbilical cord, it has nothing to do with the position you do for achieving orgasm.

You cannot voluntarily control the nutrition going to the fetus. Regarding the other problem, it is slightly 'different' and can be helped by a sex therapist. Good luck
