Question:
Hello again, How are you doing? I have a somewhat odd question. i am going on a trip with my b/f and was wondering what are the chances of becoming pregnant by sleeping in the same bed with him (just purely sleeping of course, maybe some cuddling max). Is it possible to get pregnant if he was to have a wet dream while i sleep with him?? is it safe to spend a night in the same bed as my b/f? thanks.

What a great question. Sleeping in the same bed, cuddling and enjoying each other will not get you pregnant, even if he has a wet dream. Remember, sperm isn't that powerful. It just can't get from the semen in a wet dream to inside your vagina where it will get some moisture and help to move toward a potential egg. All sperm will stay within the moist semen and even if moisture should soak through whatever clothing one or both of you might wear, the sperm can't get through.

So, enjoy your trip and don't worry.

Thanks again for writing.
