  • Is it lawful for a married couple to have intimate relations while the wife is already pregnant and the couple knows the wife is pregnant?

  • Why wouldn't it be?
    "Be kind; do not seek the malicious satisfaction of having discovered an additional enemy to the Church... And, above all, be scrupulously truthful. To all, friends and foes alike, give that serious attention which does not misrepresent any opinion, does not distort any statement, does not mutilate any quotation. We need not fear to serve the cause of Christ less efficiently by putting on His spirit". (Vermeersch, 1913).

  • I am asking because I do not know the answer. It could be considered turning your wife into a harlot because the primary purpose of intimate relations, procreation, is no longer there.

  • Yes, it is legal.  You are not doing anything to thwart the possibility of pregnancy.

    Intimate relations would likewise be permitted to a couple who has been rendered infertile due to a medical malady (e.g., cancer) in which some reproductive organs were removed to remedy the problem (i.e., remove the cancerous tumor).
