I don't know if this has been discussed previously, and I'm kind of embarrassed to ask, but does anyone else get vagina cramps after sex? I'm not talking about uterus contractions/pain/hardness. It's specifically my vagina. We don't get crazy but I feel like I can't even walk normally! For like at least the next 12 hours. It happened with my last pregnancy too.
@ooodalollly sadly, yes... it tends to get worse for me as my pregnancy goes on. I tend to make sure we only have sex in the evening hours now, so I can lay down after. If we have sex and then I need to get up and walk around, that's when I really feel it.
@ShePersisted the last week I've also had tailbone pain. I have an old injury and I think the shifting of things, constipation and weight is aggravating it. @bcashaw I did that today at a market with foid stands! It did help. I just seem to have lost my appetite.
Ok I'm freaking out a little. I've been having this sharp pinging like pains inside my vagina. Almost feel like it's the cervix. I'm not exactly sure. It's in one spot and it comes and goes every few minutes. It's freaking me out. I of course googled and the thing that comes up is incompetent cervix. Anyone else having these?
@ShePersisted Google is the worst when pregnant. A lot of the time that whole area just needs to stretch out. If you can, take a nice warm bath and try to relax. But definitely feel free to call your doctor! I swear I called up weekly to ask if things were normal with my first. Occasionally I had extra appointments just to make sure everything was good, or more invasive normal appointments (I had A LOT of cramping and some random spotting with ds so I was constantly nervous, though everything was always 100% fine). I used to get what I would call lightning crotch randomly which may be what you are experiencing. Sharp shooting pains straight up there. Not fun, but relaxing, destressing, and stretching help the most.
@ShePersisted I've had them on and off occasionally. Everything is always fine.
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
Thank you @bannaners@NYTino24. I figure it's ok if it's going away. It did start after my afternoon workout so maybe I need to stretch it out. I read lightening crotch is more of a third trimester thing due to cervix thinning. If it stays I'll call the dr tomorrow but having hear you say it's normal makes me a little relieved. I never had this with my first so I guess every pregnancy is indeed so different.
