TMI Friction Burn

Hi ladies,
Im just passed 6 weeks by the looks of things, but DP and I have been unable to have sex for around two weeks due to incredibly painful outer friction burn on my part. It was one of the reasons he suspected I might be pregnant (erm?) but is there anything we can use to stop it?. We've tried lube but it hasn't helped.

Sorry but this did make me chuckle!

Maybe try a stronger lube or a strong moisturiser?

This isnt really a pregnancy symptom as far as I'm aware... I don't want to be rude but are u sure it's a friction burn? Two weeks seems a long time to have a friction burn surely! I would suggest you get that checked out just to be sure? Hope it gets better!

Sudocrem will help I'm sure. Amd you can keep it to use on the babies bum. x

Try arnica or witch hazel

Its each time we have sex rather than solid two weeks. I'll give sudocrem a try thank you.
