This is my third baby, and I am nearly 26 weeks. I remember I had a bit of swelling in my 'lady bits' 
with DD2, but this time started at 20 weeks and I am getting so uncomfy and it can be really painful. To the point where going to the loo is painful (forget bowel movements Im paranoid something might pop!). I went to the doc who said ooh yes that IS rather swollen I will give you some cream but then she also had an appointment with my energetic 3 yr old after so quickly forgot the cream (as did i) and now I am too embarrassed to go back and ask for a prescription.
Has anyone else had this quite badly and any remedies that work? Im thinking of getting one of those 'fem pad' fridge things and have been applying some aloe vera....
