As if the back pain, SPD, heartburn, headaches, restless legs and constipation weren't enough, I think I have a vulvar varicosity or whatever the fricking hell it's called.
Am 29 weeks and have had quite a lot of pain/pressure in the fanjo area for the last few weeks, but had put it down to SPD. Then the other night DH and I had had a bit of, er, howsyerfather (for the first time in approx 28 weeks) and when I had a wipe after something didn't quite feel right. Obviously can't see down there so I had some alone time with a hand mirror and... Oh my god.
I didn't know it was possible to recoil in horror from yourself.
Have google image searched and am pretty sure it's a varicose vein. In my fanjo. I can't believe I just typed those words. I'm now super conscious of it and walking even more like John Wayne than before.
Was it the shagging that did it? Will it go away after DC2 is born? What happens when it's time to give birth will it explode?
