What Causes Pelvic Pain During Sexual Arousal?

Since giving birth to my daughter, I ve noticed that every time I become sexually aroused, I experience period like cramps, my vaginal wall aches, and sex can sometimes be painful. Is this normal, or related to a trauma to my pelvic floor? My daughter is now 2 years old, and I am 35, if that is pertinent information.
