Pain after sex

So I have to ask does anyone else have a huge tightness and pain after sex? During is great no pain but probably 30 minutes after omg! Sitting or laying down makes it go away but I of course went grocery shopping and was ready to walk out of the store!! Anyone else?

Re: Pain after sex

  • I've gotten what feels like bad cramps on either side of my lower abdomen several times. Mine usually starts during and lasts for a while after, and hurts whether I'm lying down or not. Where exactly is the pain?

  • It is pretty normal after sex (orgasm specifically) to cause Braxton, contractions, or cramping. Some women feel it right away others it takes a while.
    I had to google it myself but when I told my midwife she said it is normal. She also sad a tiny bit of blood is normal (just had a pink tinge when wipeing after)
  • Pain like cramping or like your vag hurts? Both are normal.

    What kind of pain? In your vagina, labia, or belly? Soreness or sharp?
    My labia gets fairly swollen now when I DTD, which can get a little uncomfortable afterwards. Last time I thought I was getting a UTI. Frequent urination, pressure and general uncomfortable feeling down there. It was odd though because this was a few hours after sex and whenever I get UTIs it's always 48hours after sex. Turns out it wasn't the beginning of a UTI. The symptoms went away by the end of the day. It must just have been the swelling. Also, occasionally when I O, I'll get some sharp uterine cramps for a minute, then it goes away.

  • Yup. During is fine but after it feels like I've been kicked in the crotch. NOT helping my libido.

  • Haha thanks ladies, good to know I'm not alone. It's definitely killing the libido knowing it's coming afterwards!!

    don't worry, at some point, it will probably hurt even when you haven't had sex. 
    It took until like 35 weeks last time.  This time, that "kicked in the crotch" feeling started around like 20 weeks.  It sucks.
