Bleeding after sex and other 3rd tri niggles

Hi,

Am feeling fed up. It seems to be one thing after another this time around...Covid, piles and then today, spotting after sex.

I went in to get checked and baby seems fine and there was no "active bleeding" just brown discharge.

Another thing I've been suffering from is vulva variscosities (gross); everything is very swollen down there and I have blood blisters on my vulva. One of these burst a few weeks ago and scared the s**t out of me!

I was wondering if anyone has these and has managed to treat them in pregnancy? They are making me truly miserable and no doctor seems interested in treating me. I half suspect it is these rather than the cervix that caused the bleeding today....

Please help if you can.

I am 32 weeks x

I think they usually go away on their own after the birth? I suffered from the blood blisters too and they disappeared fairly quickly once the baby arrived.

Thanks. I really hope mine do too. I'm mostly scared of them rupturing and now I'm scared to have sex :(
