So I keep getting a really intense stinging pain from inside down below. It’s mainly when baby girl is moving, but it feels so strange and is getting worse, like more intense.
It’s definitely not “lightning crotch” either because it feels different. That feels more like a pressure while this feels like a stretching stinging type pain. Would this be pains from dilating?
I get braxton hicks also quite frequently. I’m 39 weeks tomorrow x

I’ve been experiencing the same thing and have the same question. I’m 39 weeks on Monday (FTM). It’s such a strange feeling and all I can describe it as is “stretching”. Sorry I can the much help with what it is, but you’re definitely not alone! Curious to see what others say x
it really is strange isn’t it!! Hopefully someone can give a little more insight. Whenever I try and search online, it just says “lightning crotch” which is driving me insane cause I know for definite it’s not that 😅 x

I’ve had this for a while and quite frequently now (39+4) n always when she’s moving, I’ve kind of put it down to her punching my vagina from the inside very uncomfortable and slightly painful sometimes. I’m just glad she’s realised where the exit is 😂
that’s the thing, it’s not so much feeling it in my vagina. It’s more just above it. It’s SO weird to explain 😅😅 x
