I have to say no....
I would think your prone to infection.
But still ok to have an orgasm though!! That is what contracts the uterus... and can start labor as well.

Its perfectly fine, some women lose their plug realllly early like 28 weeks. Its when your water breaks that you can't have sex.

you shudnt have sex after you lose your plug!! that is the plug that protects ur cervix and if u look in books u can clearly see the baby is just behind that wall so sex is defo a nono! orgasm is fine tho so get playing!

It's perfectly fine to have sex after you loose your mucus plug (some people loose them weeks before they go into labor, wouldn't that suck!?) I'm going to say that the only time it's not ok is if your bag of water has ruptured or your Dr. has specifically told you not too...
Sex, siemen and orgasms are a great way to jump start labor!

It's fine to have sex until labor unless you break your water...that's when you will have a huge risk of infection.

I was told by my dr. to have sex to help bring labor (I was a week overdue)and my dr. was completly aware of the fact that I had lost my mucus plug, but she told me not to worry about sex causing an infection until my water breaks, so I had sex until the day I delivered.

You can have sex after you lose your plug. Your plug is just added protection from infections and such.
But you CAN'T have sex after your water breaks.
It's also okay to take baths after losing your plug. Someone asked about that not too long ago.

Yes you can still have sex in fact if you're man does release his spearm inside of you it actually will help to soften your cervix.
