Change positions: There can be several causes. Most likely it is anatomic; depending on size and where you hurt. Make sure you do enough foreplay to feel aroused, use lube (astroglide) and try different positions so it stays comfortable. If it hurts try something else. Sex should not be painful. If you have an abnormal discharge see your doc.

Normal: This is quite normal. See your gynecologist for a check up. Always a good idea. Having some relaxation of the tissues is normal.
