10 Morning Sex Positions So Good, You’ll Never Hit Snooze Again

I’m what I like to call a “faux morning person.” I appreciate the invigorating energy that comes with waking up early, but I won’t talk to anyone until after I’ve worked out and eaten breakfast. Sex is the absolute last thing on my mind, which is too bad because the benefits of morning sex are unreal. Apparently, having sex in the morning can help relieve stress, boost brain function, and make you look younger. Not to mention, it’s a great way to connect with your partner and build emotional intimacy before the day gets ahead of you.

With all that said, I have been trying to make morning sex a more regular part of my routine, which has led me to discover the best sex positions for the mornings. This list of go-to moves is perfect for any type of morning: when I’m still waking up but want to connect with my partner, when I want to stay comfy for a little longer, or when I want to feel energized right off the bat. Ahead, 10 morning sex positions that do it all. Trust me, these will make you want to get it on as soon as you open your eyes.

1. Spooning

Spooning is arguably the best morning sex position. It lets you gently ease into your day, requires minimal effort from either partner, and keeps you nice and cozy under the covers. Both partners lie on their sides, with the giver behind the receiver and their body pressed firmly against their back. From here, the giver can enter slowly from behind with their penis, fingers, or a sex toy.

2. Cowgirl’s Helpers

If you love being on top but don’t want to exert a lot of energy first thing in the morning, allow me to introduce you to the cowgirl’s helper. The only difference between this position and standard cowgirl is that the bottom partner bends their knees instead of keeping their legs straight and holds onto the back of their thighs. This not only adds extra support, but it also makes it easier for your partner to take control from the bottom. Also, the modification alters the angle of penetration and provides better access to the G-spot. All in all, the cowgirl’s helper makes sex a team effort and reduces your level of exertion while increasing your chances of having an orgasm, so it’s a win all around.

3. The Cross

The cross is the kind of sex position you whip out when you’re just waking up. Each partner is supported by the bed in this move, and the angle of penetration calls for slow and smooth thrusts. Plus, your faces are far apart from each other’s in this position, so you don’t have to worry about morning breath. If you’re receiving, your partner will lie on their side facing you, and you’ll lie flat on your back with your body perpendicular to theirs. Your hips should be aligned with theirs, and you’ll likely have to bend your knees and rest them on top of their body to make this happen. You’ll know you’re in position when your bodies, together, create a T-shape that mimics the shape of a cross. Once you’re there, your partner can enter with slow, back-and-forth movement.

4. Missionary

If you’re in the mood for intimate morning sex, missionary is the move for you. Of course, we’re all familiar with how this one works: the receiving partner lies on their back and the penetrating partner stays on top. It’s pretty straightforward, but taking things up a notch in this position is key to making morning sex memorable. You can do this by wrapping your legs around your partner’s back, kissing their neck, adding sex toys to the mix, resting one leg on their shoulder, and so forth.

5. Kneeling Fox

If you’re a fan of rear-entry sex positions, the kneeling fox is bound to become your go-to morning sex move. It’s essentially the lazy-girl version of doggy style. So, you still get ultra-deep penetration and your partner still gets a sexy view, albeit with less effort. The easiest way to perform this position is to get on all fours with your partner kneeling behind you. Your partner will then rest their weight on their knees, and you’ll follow by keeping your hands on the bed or floor and resting your lower body on top of their thighs. Then, your partner can hold onto your hips and enter from behind.

6. Synchronous Friction

Mutual masturbation, anyone? Whether you’re worried about morning breath, need a few minutes to get warmed up, or want to switch things up with minimal exertion, this is the way to do it. Synchronous friction has both partners lie on their backs in opposite directions, with their heads at the other’s knee and leg closest to their partner draped on top of their chest; that way, their partner has access to their pleasure zone. Admittedly, this position will likely require some personal tweaking to feel comfortable for both of you, but you’ll love it once you’re there and pleasuring one another.

7. Side-by-side

In side-by-side, you and your partner lie on your sides facing one another, with your top leg lifted in the air so your partner can more easily stimulate you. This stimulation can be in any form, and you don’t have to keep your leg in the air while you’re going at it; try draping it over your partner or place it however feels best. The key to making this position memorable is to maintain eye contact and hold and kiss each other while you’re in this position.

8. Binding Spoon

If you’re a true morning person, you’ll love the binding spoon since it requires a little more energy. This position takes the traditional spooning sex position up a notch by having the receiver lift their top leg in the air. This, subsequently, gives your partner unfettered access to your body and alters the angle of penetration, making it deeper. What’s more, it also makes you more entwined with one another. Having your bodies pressed so closely together will make you heady with lust and make the sex feel even hotter.

9. Reverse Oral

This cozy oral sex position is perfect for lazy mornings and receivers with vulvas. You and your partner will start out lying flat on your stomachs, and whoever is performing the oral sex should be behind their partner. If you’re the receiving partner, you’ll then lift your hips ever-so-slightly into the air so your partner can hold onto your thighs. Also, don’t be afraid to hold onto their head and gently guide them in the spots you want them to hit. Doing this is a great way to communicate what you want and also feels empowering and sexy AF.

10. Seated Hug

If you have some time to kill, take advantage of it with the seated hug sex position. With this move, your partner will sit on a chair or the edge of a bed, and you’ll sit on their lap, facing them, and wrap your legs around their back. From here, you’ll hold each other close (read: a hug) and your partner will hold onto your hips as you gently rock together in a back-and-forth motion. Not only is this sex position a great way to heighten emotional intimacy, but it also lets your partner penetrate you deeper, which increases your chances of having your G-spot and A-spot stroked.
