28 weeks and haven't been able to see downstairs for a while due to bump, but I discovered (hand mirror) quite a decent sized skin tag which has appeared between my vagina and leg.. what are the chances the doctor would cut it off while I'm still pregnant? It's not painful just uncomfortable and looks awful and I will definitely cut it when I'm shaving around there if it keeps growing!

It’s quite common to get skin tags during pregnancy, I gained a few more when I was pregnant, went to the doctor and they booked me in to go and have them frozen off, didn’t hurt and was all safe (I want 8.5 Months pregnant)

I got a few skin tags during pregnancy. One next to my nipple (!) and one unsightly one on my eyelid. Managed to twist both tags off eventually. Couldn’t bear the thought of snipping them, they hurt too much! I never even thought about the Drs to be honest but it sounds far better to ask them then try a DIY like I did!

Thanks, going to call this week and see if my dr will remove it!
