Baby bruising me, it's so painful! :(

[sunshinevalentine]

I'm 39+6 and baby has dropped slightly and is now constantly pressing his bum against my skin/bump and he's bruised the whole area. It is so painful and kept me awake all last night, no matter what position I'm in it's so painful and tender and sore! He's a big baby anyway and the thought of him potentially being in there for another 2 weeks getting bigger and the pain getting worse is making me very emotional! Can anybody suggest any remedies for the pain? I can't cope with it much longer :(

Oh that's so rubbish! Hopefully it's just where he's getting himself ready for birth!

You can only really take paracetamol but that might not help if it's just where baby is lying. Have you tried massaging the area with some moisturiser or something just to see if you can get him to move off? Or give your midwife a call to see if she can suggest anything? Maybe lying on your side to see if that relieves any pressure?

Sorry op I don't have any advice, only suggestions :(

I have this it is not pleasant. I am finding an aloe Vera after sun soothes it a bit.
