    painful intercourse

    I had a baby 5 months ago, and now, i can only have sex in one position. everything else hurts, like his penis is hitting something inside of me. my current boyfriends penis is quite a bit larger than my ex, but i'm not sure if that is the problem. i have read that the vagina is like elastic and can stretch, so i'm wondering why it always hurts. does anyone know?

    How big is he? The vagina is only 4 inches deep, you can only streach the width not the length. Tell him not to go so deep because he's hitting your cervics which is where your baby came out of and you're still in the healing process.

      The vagina can stretch during intercourse to accommodate the penis. If it did not, much of the time the penis would be hitting the cervix because the average penis is 5.5 to 6 inches long. The best way to get the vagina to stretch is to get the woman highly aroused, such as through multiple orgasms. Then the vagina will be more able to stretch. Does your bf bring you to climax before penetration?

        When I do that, my wife loses interest in any further activity and goes to sleep - unless it's during the day, in which case she'll jump up to go do laundry or some such.

          Do you have other issues, like contipation, gas problems, retroverted uterus, usual women maladies like yeast, uti, etc.? How does his penis "point"? There are crooked penises and in some cases, it might hit something that hurts, well, aside from deep penetration.

          As with what I stated above, I sometimes hurt when I am a bit constipated or have problems passing gas. My husband is very sensitive to my body language and he is quick to adjust. It takes time. Communicate with your partner well.

            So her reaction depends on the time of day and whether she has housework. Is it just one climax or a string of them? Are you sure they are real?
