lots of pressure

[~Saram~]

This may be tmi but since about 10-12wks have had lots of pressure downstairs, kinda feels like everything is going to fall out iykwim. I thought it was just from the increased blood flow etc but it is still continuing and is becoming uncomfortable when BDing. Anyone else experienced this

How far along are you know sweetheart?

I had this too from about 10 weeks on and still do!I am 16 weeks tomorrow!


I don't know for sure what it is and I wouldn't like to speculate incase I am wrong but you could ring the midwives and ask them and they would be able to tell you somehting much better medically than any of us. I truly think it's normal though as I have had it with each pregnancies so far!

Hi Sarah
The feeling you have is normal and often caused by the increase in blood flow to that area. If you were to get a mirror and have a good look down there it will probably look a little swollen. Also the weight of your baby may be contributing to this feeling.
