TMI - but feel swollen down there?

[dahlia30]

Has anybody else experienced feeling swollen down there? I am 30 weeks pregnant and started to notice this, especially when I'm sat on the toilet!

Anybody else had this?
🙈

Yeah it’s normal, because it is swollen. More blood flow, pressure from the baby above, etc.

@Garman thank you!

I’m having the same thing! especially when sitting on the toilet or straining. Did it end up going away after pregnancy?

Yes of course it goes away when the pressure of the baby and extra blood/fluid is gone.

Only 22 weeks but I feel like I’m bulging when I squat down/sit on the toilet, like im about to turn inside out! Heaviness

really worries me as I think I probably have some kind of prolapse from my previous pregnancies/births and hoping this doesn’t affect this pregnancy x
