Shaving "down there" chafing?

Hi all

I am 36 weeks at the moment and a week or so ago I decided to attempt a quick tidy up of my lady garden as a treat to myself (it had been a while).

Seemed to go ok - can't really see down there anymore! Apart from a small sore patch in my bikini line for the past couple of weeks.

I eventually took a look and it looks very red and sore, and a bit lumpy bumpy so I've applied some standard moisturiser to ease the chafing (Dove stuff).

I'm wondering if anyone knows if Sudocrem is safe during pregnancy to use? Or any other ways to get rid of this annoying sore chafe? It's driving me a bit mad!

Thank you

To clarify:

The soreness only appeared after me shaving

Sudocrem isn’t exactly what you need. Dove will probably irritate it more!

*is!

You definitely need it

Sudocrem is the stuff you need.

There are many things I could think of as a way to treat myself,shaving my fanny definitely isn't even on the reserve list Grin

Sudocreme can be used in babies so I’d use it. It’s my go to wonder cream.
