Bruised down below or infection?? (sorry TMI)

[Feelingsick12]

Really need some help with this one as takes ages to get an appt with the doc/mw around here.

Am 19 weeks and I sometimes feel quite bruised/sore around my vulval area externally - was after sex to begin with so thought it was just a result of being over-vigorous / me being sensitive due to pg.

However it's been nearly a week and I still have it on and off during the day.

No itchiness/burning/thrush like discharge, just feels a bit sore/wrong?!

Have a lot of clear pg discharge but have done for ages - could this be irritating me?!

Any ideas?

I had symptoms like you've described since about 20 weeks - I'm now 35. My GP had a look and said it was varicose veins in my vulva . Apparently all that will cure it is giving birth. It's meant no sex because it was too painful. Cannot wait to get this baby out!

Def get checked for a urine infection, go to a midwife drop in clinic with a sample of wee or gi to out of hours gp or something, I had a sore pelvic area inside and out, felt bruised to sit down etc and ended up in hospital on iv at 21 weeks as left it so long, was convinced it was spd or something else ss no burning when I peed but ended up rather poorly and v worried for bump. ...... just be on the safe side. .....
