Burning after sex

I'm 23 weeks, and after my husband and I have sex my vagina feels like it is on FIRE. It just burns so badly. I've had this for a few weeks now, no discharge, no other pain just this awful burning after sex. Anyone else experience this or know what's causing it?

OBGYN said everything is normal so I guess I'm cleared.

You could have bv, which is bacterial vaginosis. It's common to get during pregnancy since hormones are all over the place. I would talk to your doctor regardless.

I don't think I have a UTI because I have no discomfort while urinating but I will definitely bring it up to him. I have an appointment on Tuesday.

I would say you either need to use some lube during sex or you have a UTI. I would talk to your Dr to rule out UTI, but everything down there is very easily irritated while pregnant.
