3 Ways To Maintain Intimacy During Pregnancy

Marriage After God

About this episode

Maintaining intimacy during pregnancy takes intention, communication, and grace. Pre-recorded the week before their c-section and in the middle of a wildfire evacuation, Aaron and Jennifer Smith share three areas of intimacy to protect during pregnancy or any season when physical intimacy is disrupted. Physical intimacy can look like holding hands, massages, and staying close even when intercourse isn't possible. Mental and emotional intimacy grows through intentional bedtime conversations, checking in, and making each other laugh. Spiritual intimacy deepens as you pray together, share Scripture, and read the Word. Having walked through pregnancy six times, they share candidly about pelvic rest and why communicating where you are prevents insecurity.
