A member asked:
I am 12 weeks into my first pregnancy and am randomly unable to achieve penetration with my husband. some days everything goes smoothly and other days it just will not happen no matter what we do. is this a normal pregnancy issue? how can i fix it?

No, this is not a regular pregnancy issue. If the penis is is normally erectile and hard, there should be no reason to prevent a normal penetration. You should be able to feel a good erection with your hand before you try to have a good and easy penetration.

Try using a liberal amount of water based lubricant like K Y Jelly to facilitate penetration. Wish you good health and a healthy baby!
