Swollen outer labia/ vulva
Apologies for the nature of this, but wondered if anyone else was suffering from swollen outer labia. I have developed what looks like mini lady testicles with swelling. Assuming it is because I can’t lie down to sleep anymore at 37 weeks and I am sitting in the same position in the day and at night so all the blood is just pooling. Just wondered whether anyone else has had this? Going to ask my midwife tomorrow. It isn’t sore, just uncomfortable.

I haven’t but I have heard its normal, there are some tik tok videos on it if you have that lol
Haha ok thank you, scared me last night!
I've had this the last couple of weeks, it's engorgement due to blood flow and pressure down below. Had it alongside a mild dose of thrush just to make me feel better 😖 cool compressions, paracetamol for pain and try and walk around if you can to keep blood flow moving x
Ah thank you so much, so nice to know it’s normal, I freaked out at 4am wondering what the hell it was. X
I've also had this mine went back to normal after a few days. Midwife said it was most likely down to babies' head, causing pressure down there 😊.
