Sorry ladies, too much info but i cant help it!
I had a relaxing bath (slightly hot) and then did a facemask etc and when i got out of the bath i noticed that my labia was extremely swollen. Like i mean, HUGE. like i had a few golf balls in there. Now when i pressed on it it doesnt hurt but it doesnt go down. I got so freaked out!! Now im nearly 28 weeks so struggling to see down there properly aswell.
this morning its not as swollen but still swollen. Any ideas????
Thanks and sorry for the over share!

Mine did this with dc3. I even got the obstetrician to check (way tmi) as I was permanently aware of it. He claimed it was all entirely normal, but I do wish I had made a bit more of a fuss, as it was dead uncomfortable for the three months I had left. So I suppose about the same time as you... I didn't have it at all with the first two.

Yes earlier on in pg I looked like a baboon Blush but luckily they've gone down again now.

Ok, its rather embarrassing! Its gone down slightly, maybe the bath made it worse?!? But its still swollen but not uncomfortable yet..... Ugh, pregnancy is so glamorous.
thanks for letting me know im not alone!

You get alot more blood flow down there when you're pregnant, which is why you get a bit swollen. It's completely normal. After you give birth it will go back to normal. Smile
