Enhance Pleasure of the From Behind Sex Position
Push back as your husband thrusts to provoke deeper penetration and more powerful thrusts.
Arch your back a little, point your butt out, and tilt your pelvis so that your vulva is closer to your husband. This will allow for deeper penetration and better g-spot stimulation. Recommended Reading: How to Increase G-Spot Stimulation During Sex
Use a free hand and use your fingers or a vibrator to stimulate your clitoris while making love to your husband. Apply a drop or two of scream cream to your wife’s clitoris, and either of you can use a free hand to manually stimulate her clitoris while making love.

My wife and I have been doing this position for the majority of our sex this year. It is fantastic. One of the best ways for a husband to do his wife IMO (and one of the best for a wife to be done according to the wife 🙂 )
Couple of additional thoughts and tips:
This position allows for deep penetration and powerful thrusting which create the greatest physical pleasure I have ever experienced. It is highly stimulating for a guy and requires a lot of stamina to hold back ejaculation. It is also great for the woman who has trouble O’ing during intercourse because either spouse can manually stimulate her clitoris.
First, make sure she is well lubricated/aroused and enter slowly. This helps the husband savor the act of penetration and makes initial penetration more comfortable for the wife. After that it depends on what the couple wants. If a longer lovemaking session is desired use slow, sensual thrusts. Few guys are going to last long thrusting fast in this position. Even going slow may not be enough to hold things back. One thing that helps me is to stop thrusting when I get close and focus on her pleasure by stimulating her breasts and clitoris. If I am really close I stop all stimulation and just focus on increasing intimacy by gently kissing her back.
If a short session is desired (or you want to finish a slow session with a bang) get a firm grip on the wife’s hips and go to town with fast, deep, vigorous thrusting. This is the best part IMO. Nothing feels better as a husband than thrusting deeply and passionately into the woman I love. I only last a few minutes max though when going full power.
As MiniskirtDay said a great way to spice up such a quickie is for the wife to wear a short skirt without panties and proposition hubby outside the bedroom. There are few things that convey urgent sexual desire more than a husband bending his wife over the nearest suitable piece of furniture (once she is properly lubricated of course), hiking her skirt, and taking her passionately from behind. 🙂
P.S. If the wife wants to O in this position I recommend that she be stimulated to a point where she is close to an O beforehand. As I said earlier this position is highly stimulating for the guy so don’t bank on him lasting long enough to take her from 0-100 here, especially if she needs hard and fast thrusting to get there.
P.P.S. The woman doesn’t have to be just the receiver in this position. By counterthrusting back on her spouse she can stimulate both of them. I have O’ed a couple of times solely because of my wife’s counterthrusting. 🙂
P.P.P.S. Ladies, make sure to arch your back. This allows full penetration of the vagina.

Something my wife and I have found that enhances this position is the wife grabbing on to a secured object such as a bedpost. This makes it easier for the wife to arch her back and support herself during intercourse.
New Wife says
Totally agree SLS. Even the back of a chair can help. Also, this is a great position to enhance the wife’s pleasure with some nipple jewelry!
MiniskirtDay says
This is a fantastic quickie position. There’s something really thrilling about pulling hubby into the bathroom to hide from the kids for a few minutes, hike the skirt, & have fun.
The wife can easily control the angle by standing up higher on her toes or squatting down a bit. Hold the counter for balance. Make sure to smile & look your hubby in the eyes in the mirror reflection to really boost the intimacy of this quickie position. This position also easily allows him to reach around to help stimulate her or play w/ her breasts.
When there is a mirror, Hubby also really likes this position visually because the breasts have the freedom to bounce & jiggle a lot. Fun pasties from MarriedDance.com [no affiliation; just like them] can add to the enjoyment & ensure the quickie is quick [ie: cuts down on bra off/on time while easier to hide bra-less high-beams from the kids before/after until you can sneak off on your own to put one on].

MiniskirtDay,
Can you supply a link to the pasties you referenced? All the ones I saw on the MarriedDance.com site would show through most of the tops I wear!
MiniskirtDay says
New Wife,
To address your problem directly, part of my prep when planning for the possibility of a quickie is to pick a shirt that gives the best coverage. Or not. [The boys are still young, so giving hubby a glimpse can be fun in & of itself. I just don’t want to draw attention to them from the boys].
As for suggestions on pasties. We’ve tried a several brands and are fans of the brand Pastease. A caution about their site, their pictures can be pretty racy. I tend to buy from either Married Dance [which has a small collection], Yandy [a bigger collection], or a local store that carries them. They stay on for a long time & I find them comfortable. My regular favorites are the hearts and the bows. My personal favorites are the bunny’s & the panda’s which are adorable. The cupcakes made for a great birthday surprise!
Enjoy!
