Thinner Membranes Leading to Split Lip

jessonadventure

Is anyone else experiencing this? I know I've read that during pregnancy many membranes thin out (mouth, nose, etc...) but for the last two weeks, I've been waking up every night with a split lip in the same spot. I've tried keeping it moist with lip balm, drinking plenty of water and trying to sleep with my mouth closed, but nothing is helping. It heals up during each day, but splits again every night. Ouch! Any advice?

I second the lanolin. Its the best stuff ever. When you get up to go to the bathroom reapply it too.

I have it, too, but mine is split at the corner of my mouth.  I like the lanolin idea a lot; that stuff is amazing.
