Strange Feeling 'Down There'

[juleswa]

Hi Guys,

I'm sorry for this post, also cause it's about my 3rd post today with my oddball questions, and this one might take the cake.

I'm not even sure how to explain this....does anyone ever get a kind of heavy feeling literally down there. Where it feels like the blood has rushed there and everything feels swollen? So you can almost be walking and have a concious awareness of 'down there' cause you can feel it as you walk.

Does this make any sense whatsoever? My apologies.

I think it makes sense, and I think I'm getting the same sensations. I've been getting pains in my pubic area, but its hard to say exactly where, and its definately noticeable when i walk, or say, I open my legs wide (eg getting in and out the car). As far as I know, its due to the weight/pressure of bubs. hth

Hi Jules
I seem to be talking about your "bits" alot today.
The heavy feeling is probably caused by swelling due to an increase in the blood supply to the area. Baby could in so0me cases also contribute to this feeling. Don't worry its quite normal

Thanks again

Jules,

I have the same odd feeling in my "bits" which I don't remember happening from my first pregnancy. Its very weird and a bit off putting I must say!!! I also have an "achy" feeling in mine, can't quite describe it, but I used to get it a few times when AF was visiting... very strange to feel it now!!!! DH has been.. investigating the area for me and has confirmed that it feels much different now than it did a few months ago... things are starting to warm up me thinks!!!!!!

BTW - haven't seen you in belly buddies thread for ages!!!!!
