Of course: Being pregnant does not mean sexual activity needs to stop, unless you are having problems with your pregnancy such as bleeding or premature contractions. Rough intercourse is usually not encouraged though.

Yes: There is no issue with having intercourse while pregnant as long as there are no other contraindications. One concern however is to be extra safe regarding using barrier methods as certain std's can threaten pregnancies.
