This is a medical question that needs to be discussed with your doctor, in light of your particular health situation.
The majority of couples can continue to have sex - complete with intercourse, orgasm, etc - throughout pregnancy. Your doctors will tell you the things to watch for, that may indicate sex should be avoided. My wife and I went through four pregnancies, and enjoyed intercourse within a day of each delivery.
Contrary to popular belief and social conditioning, many men (almost 50%, as I recall) actually find their pregnant partners MORE attractive and sexually desirable than prior to pregnancy. That's probably a good thing, because about a third of women have increased sexual desire when they're pregnant! (To be fair, some people - both men and women - have a psychological fear of having sex during pregnancy. It's not a time when either partner should be forcing the other into something he/she is just not mentally comfortable with.)
In the later stages your lovemaking will be less vigorous, to avoid discomfort to you, and because some positions just don't work very well! (You'll probably gain an appreciation for how the curve of spoon handles helps them fit together nicely in the drawer.) You will also have less energy for any kind of physical activity.
Condoms prevent pregnancy and prevent people with certain diseases from passing them on. If you're already pregnant there's no reason for trying to prevent pregnancy. If both of you are healthy, there aren't any diseases to prevent.

Sex is perfectly safe for the baby for your entire pregnancy. What you need to be aware of is that sex can cause you to go into pee-mature labour. So long as you use certain positions you and the baby can be fine!
It is important to keep your sex life alive during pregnancy, as not only does it sub-conciously tell your man that he is still useful and that he is still neede. For something, but also - u need it!
Many men find the sight of their pregnant wife even more sexy than normal, and both of you have a libido that needs to be satisfied.
With regards to the condom issue, no - u don't need it. Ur already pregnant and STD's aren't going to be a problem since I've already had unprotected sex before
My best friend (who is a girl) got pregnant last year, so if u have more questions, mail me!
Have fun and best of luck!

 Without knowing your medical history, it would be unwise for anyone to tell you how long it's safe for you to have sex during pregnancy. For most women, it's safe to have sex right up until it's time to give birth, and no harm is done to the baby. But, again, you should seek the advice of your doctor.
Condoms not only help to prevent pregnancy, but they prevent Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) as well. The general consensus is that the only time you SHOULDN'T use a condom is when you're in a long-term, committed, monogamous relationship, and you are certain that both you and your partner are disease free. If this is the case, then, yes, it's safe to have unprotected sex when you're pregnant.
Fondly,
Jill
