Vagina feels bruised?

@Sophie at least it's not just me! So weird 😂
I currently have this awful symptom, It's my first pregnancy and I'm 20 weeks. Feels like I rode as part of the tour de France. 🙃
I’m seeing a pelvic floor physio for this in my 2nd pregnancy and I’d definitely pass on her advice to do your pelvic floor squeezes 3x a day! Just from doing this I’ve felt overall better. Definitely have worse days if I’ve walked or stood a lot that day though Here’s a booklet she linked me to. She said to just do what you can, so whether a long hold squeeze is 3 seconds or whatever. It’s something. https://thepogp.co.uk/_userfiles/pages/files/resources/20818_pogp_pelvicfloor_for_women_signed_off_1.pdf
Yes I’m 19 weeks and feel the same! I had a pelvic floor check and all fine but I think it affects some more than others. Apparently pelvic floor pain is more common if you are hypermobile too (which I am)
Yes, but I think mine is just swelling. Everything got a bit puffy down there last time and it's just happened earlier this time.
I had it last time and have it again already and it seems earlier this time! I find it’s worse if I have done a lot of walking, first time round it was if I had done a lot of walking, during and immediately after my pelvis would hurt but in the evening it would switch and yeah it all felt sore 😂
