Having relations with one’s spouse during pregnancy

Q: Is it permissible to have relations with one's wife during pregnancy? If yes, is it harmful for the foetus?

A: Yes it is permissible. However, in the case where it will be harmful to the child, then one should refrain. In these issues one should refer to an experienced gynecologist. 

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
