painful sex :(

For about three or four weeks I have been having real bad pains during sex as if I'm not lubricated enough and it's hard to enjoy when all I feel is dry rubbing my bf says it's lubricated down there sorry TMI but it hurts so much I don't have any std's or a yeast infection afterwards my vagina will remain sore for about 15 min  not the inside the outside and once I had to put ice down there I felt like it was swollen but ive had a normal high sex drive my entire pregnancy I'm 18 weeks and I'm 19 and miss my sex life my boyfriend is convinced I cheated on him and have an std not the case ladies and I need advice on what it could be to show him he's pretty worked up about it what can I do see the doctor but what else does this happen to others or just me :(

19 weeks and my sex drive went down the drain sometime in the 18th week

I don't get lubricated down there as much anymore. It does hurt and its a turn off for the next "love making" we get.

Do they know when we're not that lubricated ? Can they tell ? I hate how he will just keep going till he's finished. Then it leaves us in pain.

Plus my boyfriend changed everything about sex. It's not what it use to be. It's more like he's just doing it for himself and not giving a care about our needs. :/

It's very common for sex to be painful during pregnancy. Your boyfriend has to understand that. He's horrible for making you feel bad for something you have no control over. I suggest you explain it to him.

I have not been able to have sex very much my whole pregnancy I have had a big decrease in sex drive and it just hurts to have sex my fiance gets upset because well we used to have sex all the time now in the last 30 weeks that I've been pregnant we have had sex no more than 10 times. Sometimes I don't feel well enough lubricated others I'm fine but have pain no matter what it just hurts me to have sex now because we have not done it much so tmi you get tighter and because of getting tighter when we do have sex sometimes I rip and it just hurts. I have never cheated and have no stds it's just what I have experienced during my pregnancy I have no sex drive and it hurts to have sex. And sometimes the outer part of my vagina gets swollen after sex if you look it up its actually common for swelling to occur it's a part of orgasm I guess and it's pretty normal. But my fiance understands after we sat and talked about it because I wanted him to understand it's not him at all and told him everything I told you and just said bare with me and he understands completely and when we do have sex he is very careful
