Painful sex?

[Yazzy1989]

I love my husband and I really wanna have sex again, but I am finding it hurts every time we try, so I loose interest very fast. I don't know what to do. I feel bad that I am letting both him and myself down. Anyone else experiencing anything like this?

I am 18 weeks prego. Me and my boyfriend had trouble n the beginning having sex. We found positions that are are comfortable and painless. I admit more often than not I am not in the mood,but i do it anyway. Hopefully u will find something that works for the both of u! Good luck

I've experienced that now and I'm pregnant with my second also. At first it hurts but after some time it starts to feel better and the pain goes away.

I know alot women that have the same problem and so do I . I read that sometimes during pregnancy a woman's vagina swells up and almosts creates the effect that the vagina is tightening and getting smaller. Its perfectly normal and will go away after birth. I find it easier to have sex with a lot of foreplay and going slow.

Were u tested For any other infections?

[Yazzy1989]

Had myself checked for a yeast infection and it isn't that :( thanks for the suggestions though. I am 17weeks pregnant and am now getting scared to have sex :(

[hersheyma]

I agree with the ladies here, it could be a yeast infection

I had this problem during the first trimester. I'm 16 weeks now and I think the pain stopped about 3 weeks ago.

I had that problem and it turned out to be a yeast infection.  Hope you find out something that works for you!

Maybe be extra loving in other ways--massage, hugs, kisses, make him special dinner.  Try lots of different positions too.

Could be a yeast infection. Call your doc and. Ask. Relax your muscles down there during sex and always use a good lubricant.
