Sensitive, heavy, feeling in my vagina

[Skyblueboston]

30 weeks pregnant, for the last two weeks on and off when walking my vagina feels sooo heavy and my pubic bone becomes painful towards the end of my walk, also when I rest then get up my vg feels painful and sore like I have had a massive all day sex session! Obviously I have not lol.

Any ideas what it could be?

Sounds like pgp (pelvic girdle pain), when your pregnant your body releases relaxin to soften your ligaments. The pubic bone is a ligament and a classic symptom is aching & sorness after walking, sleeping etc... A pillow between your thighs at night will help as well as a cold compress on the pubic bone for 10 min.

Deffers contact your midwife & be referred to a physio they can give u exercises to massively help. :0)

this is exactly what I have been having since my week 24 - but in my case its on and off and it feels like its PGP. Check with your Physio, you might be able to make a self-referral appointment.

BTW I asked the doctor, if that can push me to a pre-term labor if the my pelvic area expands (she probably had a good laugh about it later on) but she said that would not hurt the baby.

Try sleeping with additional pillows or a hot bath (soaking in warm water for a while really helps me )

But for any concern you know you have to call the mid-wife immediately

Thanks ladies, I saw the midwife today and yep pgp just have to take it say, keep a pillow between the knees when sleeping, wear my support belt when walking,
