Swollen down there at 21 weeks (dc3)

[littleraysofsunshine]

I remember feeling this with dd2 late in the pregnancy, and especially as the weather was also hot.

I'm ow 21weeks with dc3, and I keep feeling so swollen down there. From what I can feel, it's the veins that are bigger, but the pressure is horrible, especially when standing, or even when having a wee!

Is this normal this early on?

Hi, i have the same issue. it came on at 26 weeks with me and is still on going. its awful. I am very swollen and when i stand up too quickly from sitting/ lying its painful.

My doc said itsnormal but if it gets too bad they can actually drain the fluid! GULP.
So far its the same so no need for that step but still. Not pleasant.
I tried sitting with an ice pack but really only thing that helps is lying down a lot but not much of a help since i work long hours at a desk!
