Hey there,
I am 32 weeks pregnant and on and off through the pregnancy I have had a very sensitive 'downstairs'. I have been checked several times for a UTI but don't have one and I have described the problem to my GP but she seems to think all is okay...I am not convinced because this is my second pregnancy and I never had this issue last time.
Basically, the whole area seems very swollen and sensitive, there are sort of big, soft lumps everywhere (It was never lumpy before!) and sometimes I feel like I am on fire down there. Occasionally it hurts a bit to go to the loo and for the past 2 months I cannot have sex as afterwards everything will be sore and burning for a good hour or two.
I told my doc about the swollen, sensitive feeling and she seems to think it is just due to an increased flow of blood to the area but I am getting a bit fed up with being sore and uncomfortable. I have not yet mentioned it to my midwife because my GP didn't seem to think it was a big deal....anyone else felt like this and what can I do to stop it?
