Sunan Ibn Majah 1632
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ كُنَّا نَتَّقِي الْكَلاَمَ وَالاِنْبِسَاطَ إِلَى نِسَائِنَا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يُنْزَلَ فِينَا الْقُرْآنُ فَلَمَّا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ تَكَلَّمْنَا .

Muhammad ibn Bashshar narrated to us; Abd al-Rahman ibn Mahdi informed us; Sufyan narrated to us, from Abdullah ibn Dinar, from Ibn Umar, who said: During the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), we used to refrain from speaking freely and being at ease with our wives, for fear that Quran might be revealed about us. When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) died, we began to speak.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The source pairs speaking with being at ease or familiar with one’s wives; the translation keeps both expressions without specifying physical intimacy.
