I was in the shower and went to shave and that's when I noticed my entire vaginal area is swollen and huge! I did a google search and there's lots of similar stories that come up so I'm assuming its normal. I'm only 21 weeks and it was definately unexpected. Anyone else?
DH just told me that mine needs some grooming. Thanks dear. I'm trying to talk myself to get it waxed.
I told DH that if it's not up to his standards, my razor is in the bathroom and he can invite me into the shower. It is so not high up there on my priority list at the moment... haha.
Lol! I can barely see that area under the flabby belly that has yet to harden up. And yes it was flat, haha! I feel like my whole body is puffing up and I yet to look anything other than chubby, just like before pregnancy... Oh well, I guess that's the joys of growing a baby. I had none f this with my first so it's all new territory.
Just give up on trimming. Then you don't have to see it. What you don't know can't hurt you.

Omg I was just thinking this! On my 16th pee trip to the bathroom since dinner... Very swollen and tender. FUN! Has anyone else stopped wearing thongs? I used to wear them every day to workout and now I can't they are so uncomfortable

We need to all compare our vaginas to see who has the cutest! What? That's what cute-vagina lady did with her sorority sisters. Is that not what people do? Is that porn?

ha! just wait until after delivery It looks GREAT then.
Haha! This. Even my L&D nurse commented on my hamburger buns during delivery... Awesome! Yeah, pushing a 7lb watermelon out of it dues nothing to help the swelling... I did use a mirror in the shower to shave during my last pregnancy until even that didn't help and then I just had to do it blind.
I kind of want to go take a mirror to my vag. I haven't seen her in a while. DH isn't complaining, so it can't be THAT bad... right? RIGHT??
Do NOT do it. We were actually joking last night about the destruction that DD wreaked down there on me during delivery. Got a hand mirror out and, just, no.... Mirrors and who-has just don't mix.
I did it.
I should have listened.
I thought that after seeing it, shaving away the Chewbacca fur (while trying to hold up my belly) would help.
It didn't.
Let's just say that IF (and that's a big IF) my vagina was considered cute and flat before, it's not now. Oh well.
Mine isn't swollen, but I will say I have been "training" myself to shave blind a kill still be able to groom when I can't see anything. So far so good...but I can still cheat and see the majority. Guess I should be looking out for uncute swollen vag soon...
