I'm 26 weeks and for the past week, I've been swollen down there.

No irritation, thrush etc, it just feels puffy 🤦🏻‍♀️ and bigger than usual. It's such a weird feeling I can't really explain it, does anyone else have the same or shall I get checked out?

Get checked out. No one on the internet can give you diagnosis and it’s not worth the risk if it is an infection.

This happens to me when I try to go for a 💩 poo! It's the extra blood flow xx

It’s likely to be due to the extra blood flow in your body. As long as there’s no pain, irritation or smell it’s probably fine, but you can mention it to your midwife if you are worried.

@elm26 extra blood flow - it should go down almost immediately after baby comes, but always text your midwife number with this sort of thing x

Thanks everyone will mention to midwife, I completely forgot to at my appt last week. Probably because it doesn't cause me any issues, I just notice daily when I have a shower/bath and wash.

My urine was tested last week and was fine but I'll definitely mention it to her today just in case.
