Then there's a very high chance that he may have been somewhat traumatized because of it. Some men find it very hard to have sex with their partners if they've been at a birth, because their child (putting it bluntly) came out the same way that he'd go in. Some men just find it hard to separate the whole sex and childbirth thing. I think your boyfriend is one of them.
I think now you're at a stage where you need to tell him straight that this is affecting you badly and you need things to change. You both need to go to the doctor or something and you both need to start working on this.
For what it's worth, this is absolutely not about you. This is all about his own state of mind. Tell him you're unhappy and tell him you need things to change and that you'll work with hi to change them. That may mean counselling, it may mean dressing up sexy and sending your lovely child away for the night or something like that.
Good luck with it all. And please don't let it get to you - this is his state of mind and it's not about you at all.
