While giving sensual massages to your pregnant wife, constantly ask for her feedback and alter your massaging pattern and amount of pressure you apply.
Some women like more pressure and hard massages while others prefer soft and sensual massages to sooth their body. Ask your wife as to which part of the body she feels stressed and start applying low to medium pressure while massaging in those spots.
