Sorry as you can tell from the title this is going to be a tmi post but....I'm worried about what's going on down there 😞
I've never had the strongest pelvic floor but a few years ago I got one of those pelvic toners where you insert a small probe and it does it for you which helped and seemed to improve things. Fast forward 3 kids, weight loss/gain, and a current pregnancy (26 weeks) and im worried about something I've noticed down there. Before I got pregnant with this current baby, I was using a pelvic toner again but it didn't seem to make much difference like it did before so I just tried the exercises the normal way which also didn't seem to make much difference and I read something about that if there's too much damage to pelvic floor muscles then simple toning exercises won't do much to help. Anyway, recently I've been noticing a sort of swollen feeling down there, and when I've been to the toilet for a poo, I've had a sort of bulging feeling down there 🤦🏻 not that anything is hanging out so to speak but from the outside in the area where my vagina is I can feel the whole area is kind of bulging (sorry not great at explaining it) do I speak to a midwife or GP about this, just keep doing pelvic exercises or is it something I need to urgently get seen to? Should also mention that area felt abit sore when I went to the toilet the other day. I'm really worried about getting a prolapse 😩
