Hand Lotion?
So, my boyfriend and I recently started having sex on New Years Eve. We've done it twice, and
both times it was painful (obviouslly).
He told me to use hand lotion and rub it all over the condom to make it less painful. I was wondering, would this really work?

Hand lotion will mess up the latex. Only water-based lubricant (like KY Jelly - probably near the condoms in the pharmacy) is safe to use with condoms. This means no lotions, massage oil, etc. It's just not safe.
In addition to the risk to the condom, chances are it will also really irritate your vagina.
Sex can be painful for the first few times. It's not as easy as having sex once and then automatically it feeling better. Things that can help are lubricated condoms or lubricant. More importantly, though, is how excited you feel.
Before having sex, spend plenty of time kissing and touching to be sure your body is really ready for sex. This will make your vagina more naturally lubricated and ready for penetration.
Make sure you have him enter you slowly, and take it really gentle until you feel more ready. If the pain is extremely intense, lasts awhile, or sex continues to be painful after a month or so, your best bet is to see a doctor. Now that you're sexually active, you'll need to see a gyno once a year anyway.
I wish you the best.

hey, hand lotion = bad idea. dont do it. it will irrate your vagina. just use condoms regularly. sex is suppose to hurt the first couple times.

Well i hope you guys did stuff before the sex like fingering or handjob or giving him head because you need to be really wet for it 2 not hurt so much so either next time have him finger you or buy lubricant. Hand lotion is such a bad idea don't do it. But having sex will usually hurt the first couple times because his part is streching your insides out and it will usually hurt have him finger you and that will strech you out a bit or if that's not the case then buy lubricant.
Hope I helped :)

no. bad idea. do not use anything other than an approved lubricant, because theres a decent chance that anything else could mess with the effectiveness of the condom.

Just stick with KY Jelly or some other real lubricant. There are a lot of weird things in hand lotion that could irritate your vaginal area. Since you've just lost your virginity, it might be slightly painful until even the 5th time, but after that if it still hurts you should see a doctor/gyno. Make sure you're lubricated enough (either naturally or with the KY) before he tries to have sex with you or it will make it that much more painful.
