What to expect the first time
Posted: 01-29-08 11:21am

Sex was never something that we discussed in our family. I did not get a sexual education at school (catholic school), and my mom would rather die than talk about it, and if she ever found out that I had sex before my wedding night she would kill me. I know about birth control and all that I just want to know things like will it hurt? Are there positions that could make it more comfortable for me? Should I take a tylenol? Anything would be helpful! I am excited but still a little nervous.

everyone's first time is different. whether it hurts or not will depend a lot on two things: 1. if you still have a hymen (some women do, but some break theirs doing other activities long before their first time), and 2. if you're with someone who cares about you and doesn't want to hurt you. there are a lot of things you and your partner can do to minimize or eliminate pain for you. the most important thing you can do is to relax. you should be very turned on/lubricated/prepared before starting. you will want to keep a bottle of lubricant on hand. even if you make your own lubrication, store bought lubricant can definitely help things go along

Run4life pretty much covered everything. For MOST women, the first night or any night should NOT hurt because there is no hymen to break.

As Run said, you need lube. Whether your body's own or store-bought: Get Wet!! Don't just lube up your vagina and vulva: ALSO lube up the penis!! Dry penis + wet vagina still = ouch!

Be relaxed and turned on and "in the mood". Start with nights of foreplay, if you haven't made it to all of the other bases first!!
