Hello,
You should avoid sex during pregnancy till 16th week of gestation and then after 32 weeks to avoid miscarriage and preterm delivery respectively. However sex should completely be avoided during placenta praevia.

Hello,
It is safe to do intercourse during pregnancy if there are no pregnancy complications such as placenta previa. Seek advice from your gynecologist for further help.
