Sorry if TMI but I am finding sex a wee bit uncomfortable since being PG! It's like a stinging burning sensation. Has anyone else had this and is it normal????

Have you maybe got thrush? I got this loads while pg with DS and it made it all very "stingy"

That's a very good point actually. I have no other symptoms though - but I could still have it. Thank you!

I had the same; it just felt like something had changed and everything was drier and sore.

Would recommend some lubricant; I think it's just caused by changes in hormones (unless you have other symptoms indicating an infection or something). I think it's quite normal...

yep! Iditti Gemmitygem. Because of hormone changes you will need to use some lube for a while. Shouldn't be anything to worry about.

I would go to your doctor just to be on the safe side, it might be thrush which I got and had no other symptoms, its easily treatable if you do have it.
