We usually advise the couple for abstinence for first 3 months in pregnancy as it increases the chances of abortion. After 3 months, you can ask your gynaecologist and if your ultrasound report shows that the placental/ chorionic plate position is ok, then you can have sexual intercourse.

Six weeks after delivery if its normal delivery, and 3 months if it is C section, ideally its best if your wife gives consent to it as and when she feels comfortable after the above mentioned time frame, and use protection so that she should not get pregnant soon.
