Intimacy during 8-9 months pregnancy
My husband gets intimate during my 8th month of pregnancy. He is gentle, avoids pressure on my stomach, and I don’t feel any pain or discomfort. Still, I’m worried if it can harm the baby or not.

Irregular Periods
I get my periods around 12-15th of every month. However, when I got my periods in March, I got them again right after 15 days of my periods (counting from the first day when they started) Means, I got them around 1st April instead of getting them around 15th April. Then, I got them again after 15-18 days which was 3rd of May. And the duration of my periods was from 3rd of May to 15th of May. I have also been having this irritation problem in the external part of my vagina. It's always itchy when it's damp. As I get my periods frequently, I also get bad rashes from pads which makes that irritation even worse. And I just got done with my periods but today I felt itching due the rashes of pads and then I again saw the blood spots. I am concerned about why this is happening since past 1.5 Months almost. I haven't taken any suspicious pill or medicines as well. I have only been under medication for the past 20 days for jaundice.
