Is It Okay To Have Sex During Pregnancy?

Hi I am 9 weeks pregnant with first child... Is it ok to have sexual intercourse or masturbate... One dr says it's ok..while a nurse practitioner says it's not because an orgasm makes the uterus contract and result as a M/C?? What is true and what's ok and what's not. Thank you
