35 weeks - Swollen Undercarriage!

[FlirtyThirty]

OMG! I have no idea what is going on down there but for at least the last week, I feel like my entire 'undercarriage' has been pumped up! It feels very swollen...

What is this all about!??
Is it just me?

I don't remember this with DS1...

I had this with ds from 38 weeks. The underneath of my bump and everything below was all puffy and full of fluid. Midwife wasn't concerned, said it was along the same lines as the swollen ankles. She did however, send me to see the consultant as I all of sudden was measuring a lot bigger than my dates. When I got to see the consultant, he said it was normal and the swelling was the reason for the bigger measurements. It all went down as soon as I have birth

Oh Jackey...glad yours went down...just to clarify, it's not so much underneath my bump as my fanjo that's...well...enlarged!

Yes I had the swollen Fanjo too just couldn't think of a good word to describe it!

So sorry you had this...but SO glad I'm not alone!
Have visions of horrified looks when I go into labour with a jungle somewhat unkemp and a swollen fango!

I had this.

Dd is 8 weeks now, and god it's amazing how quickly you forget about these things

I can remember being horrified

Thank goodness I'm not alone!

Didn't have ths with DS1...it's not painful, it's just I'm an entirely different shape/ feel 'down there'!

Same. Now 36 weeks, had it since about 32, erk!

Oh the glamour of pregnancy...
