Dear Rizwana,
I do understand your difficulty.
During pregnancy, it is safe to have sexual relations between 14 to 28 weeks of pregnancy if there are not risk factors forbiding the intercourse. During intercourse in this period, full insertion of penis is better avoided to prevent the disturbance to the pregnancy. In usual position of man over woman, there is risk of full penile insertion as well as pressure on the abdomen. In the reverse position also the same risk exists. Intercourse in side positions of both of you can prevent these possibilities. For few weeks more, you can perform intercourse in such position. However, after few weeks, your growing abdomen may cause problem for your husband to reach his penis to your vagina. Hence, if he sleeps on his side behind you, he can access your vagina with his penis and moreover, the penis in this position cannot be inserted deep in the vagina which will safeguard the pregnancy. I would recommend you a book named Kamsutra authored by Vatsyayan which explains and illustrates different positions of sexual intercourse during pregnancy. Though original Indian Sanskrit book, now it is available in many languages (including English) all over the world.
I would definitely like to help you more in details if you ask me a Direct question.
I hope this helps you for the time being.
