    OUCH!!!! I am glad you are getting ti checked out, does'nt sound like something to wait around with..some swelling is normal but not to that extent, I think it will be an infection or veins????, good luck..best to get it sorted out now.

    Thanks everyone for the advice.
    Have just come back from the hospital and it seems I have a version of nappy rash. I need to change the pad i'm wearing every hour but ATM it seems like it's not quite enough.
    Have to use a hydrocortisone cream and a zinc based cream (just like on bubbas nappy rash) and ice every 10mins to reduce swelling.

    On a side note....
    Great to find out what it is but OMG it did confirm all my negative thoughts about the hospital and why I still don't like the idea of birthing there... but as it seems I have no choice in which hospital i go to in a big city like this... i have to suck it up...

    No joke - midwife checked first said this is what it looks like, dr came in put her gloves on, looked for 5secs said oh yeah thats what it is, took off her gloves and walked out no advice on what to do or how to soothe it... she jsut walked out!!! Midwife gave me all the information I needed.
    I also checked out the birth suite while I was there as they were so quiet.... and it's crap! Can't wait to go back there...
