I have researched and have asked my doctor repeatedly if having sex while pregnant is bad for the baby and even though I was told "no" this has been on my mind all morning!

A few hours after my husband and I fell asleep I woke up to him kissing me and then getting on top of me. Yes it was great, =) but I could feel my baby freaking out as though scared, so I asked him to stop.

I'm 19 weeks pregnant and normally I wouldn't trip, but Im only 5'1, and my husband is a big athlete at 6'5, complete opposites you can say, but most importantly I need to know, do you think I hurt my baby?? I'm hoping he's (my baby) not traumatized and will they even remember something like that?

This is my first so I cant help being a little over protective. Some reassurance at this point will help. Thanks for your advice in advance!
 
not at all. Your baby is floating in amniotic fluid which is inside the uterus. The entrance of the uterus is protected by the closed cervix... so there is absolutely no way to hurt the baby
