is it safe for him to finish in me?

Answer
AS long as you are not bleeding or have been told specifically not to have relations, you can safely have intercourse throughout pregnancy, with ejaculation. Remember, however, that towards the end of pregnancy (near term) an ejaculate can cause you to go into labor due to the presence of prostaglandins in the semen. Also try to refrain from oral sex becuause it runs the risk of amniotic embolism.
