Sex is fine at anytime during your pregnancy. The only time that you need to abstain from sex is if your doctor specifically tells you not to or if you have any kind of bleeding. Other than that, your fine. I had sex my entire pregnancy all the way up until the night before I gave birth. I am not a teen mom, but I do have a little one who is 11 months old.

Sex is fine throughout pregnancy (unless your dr tells you otherwise) but you aren't supposed to have sex while lying on your back (missionary) especially as baby starts getting bigger.
Too uncomfortable for you and not the best position for your baby to be in. Lying on your left side is always good, as is "doggy-style" and you on top. Sex while pregnant opens doors to get creative as you need to work around giant belly and sore boobs. We won't even get into spraying milk!
Actually sex is often recommended in the few days before your due date (def. after if due date has passed) since it can gets things primed for labor ;-)
