What can people do to relieve pain before penetration?
-Getting in the mood! *Try taking a warm bath before engaging in sexual activities, anything to try and relieve some of the stress your feeling.*
-Take time for yourself before your partner joins. *Utilize foreplay*
-During daily activities try using your hips and pelvic floor more than your back! This might help you enjoy certain positions more. *Stretching*
-Utilize the childs pose position-Listen to your body!
-Listen to your body!
Recommended positions for vaginal & lower back pain
1. On top position, rear to your partner or facing your partner. With this position, you can control the movement/speed better. When you are experiencing discomfort you can pause and communicate that with your partner.
2. All fours, good for letting gravity help you.
3. Childs pose is also a good pose to let gravity help you.
4. On your back, (bridge position).
5. Resting your leg on a pillow or your partner opens up your torso hopefully alleviating nerve pain.
*Somewhat bent legs/knees, or legs rested on their partner is the best positioning to relieve lower back pain*
Don't be afraid to gain support from pillows and blankets!
