Zoifan, I have often found you to be one of the voices of reason on these
boards and this comment is no exception. It is well thought out and very
considerate. And, you piqued my interest in sex during pregnancy.
During my reading, I found that sex, even intense sex, is not only good and
fun for both partners, it's very good for both mother and baby in several
ways. Check out this article.

I also found a very interesting tidbit. Although rare, it is possible to become
pregnant while you're already pregnant. It's called superfetation.
Medical Definition of Superfetation
Superfetation: An extremely rare situation in which a pregnant woman becomes
pregnant a second time with another (younger) fetus. Superfetation is characterized
by the fertilization and the implantation of a second oocyte in a uterus already
containing the product of a previous conception. Superfetation is different from the
process of twinning or multiple gestations and involves the conception of an additional
fetus during an established pregnancy. With superfetation, the two fetuses have
different gestational ages and due dates. Superfetation can occur in some animals
but is so rare in humans that fewer than 10 cases have been reported in the medical
literature.
