Puffy vagina?

pettybetty · February 2015

Sorry if this is tmi but is anyone else getting a puffy vagina? It's the worst in the morning. I know a little change is normal but this is like a teen mom Farrah botched lip job change.

i don't think this is a very appropriate topic for this forum. I think you should speak with your doctor about this and keep the board as a place for mommies-to-be to discuss our pregnancies.

I'm due October first and I honestly think it's due to pregnancy, like my hormones and stuff. How is that inappropriate?

I have heard of that happening later in pregnancy. Maybe it's just happening to you early?

I had a client (I do waxing) who was 8 months pregnant come in for a Brazilian and I had to tell her I wouldnt do the whole thing. She was really swollen. I was kinda shocked cause it was super puffy and it made me really nervous to wax anywhere near there.

Oh man, please tell me you are kidding?! Or trying to be funny. Pregnancy has some pretty gross aspects. A puffy vagina is probably the least inappropriate thing I have read about on TB. Grow up.

OP- it has happened to me in 2 of my pregnancies. My OB said it was pretty normal.

I love how some people only want to talk about the sunshine and unicorns part of pregnancy but not the real nitty gritty. Even when they're the pregnant ones. BTW I have not had this yet. My guess is that progesterone makes us bloat also makes other tissues swell. As long as it's not extremely painful I'm sure you're fine.

lol.

nelch84 · February 2015

i just like to keep some things to myself but I guess that's just me.

razzlemydazzle · February 2015

I have heard on delivery day it's hard to keep much to yourself. Lol!

kristikayy1124 · February 2015

Yeah, pretty hard to keep stuff to yourself when you are naked on an operating room table, while 2 doctors and a bunch of nurses have you cut open. Hmm

nelch84 · February 2015

well I have had a baby before, but I was careful to keep my gown tucked around myself most of the time.

@EZbreezY90‌ I'm doing a water birth in my birthday suit if I can! You're having a baby not tea with the queen. Let it all hang out!

I'm sure you didn't poop while giving birth and only the dr saw your vag. Am I right?

nelch84 · February 2015

well at the end I just couldn't avoid the doctor seeing my lady parts! LOL!

I have been meaning to do some search about this. It sounds really cool. A center near me has one en suite at the hospital and you have both an OB and a midwife. Sounds like the best of both worlds.

I have a wide set vagina but it hadn't been puffy. I do feel a little looser during interciurse with bf.

I got it with my first. Other mommies and dr told me it was from increased blood flow to the vagina for baby.

LuckyDuck7 · February 2015

Is this really a thing? I don't want this to happen, it sounds suuuuuper uncomfortable and awkward and just yuck!!
:-SS

erikalovesmatt · February 2015

Normal. Not anything to worry about. If you notice weird discharge or a funky smell, tell your obgyn.

Tourmaline15 · February 2015

@pettybetty‌ I had this from the start with my first pregnancy. I haven't noticed it this time yet. You can take a bath with ginseng and milk thistle and it will help tremendously!

ClvndSteamerGurl · February 2015

Oooooommmggggggg I'm so glad I read this!!! I'm having the same thing! I honestly thought I had another yeast infection but I didn't feel any itchiness in my "girly area" It was just pink and swollen. Lol, like those fake wax lips! Haha!

backwoodsbarbie3372 · February 2015

I feel like that after sex. I get swollen a lot more easily during sex.

Tourmaline15 · February 2015

That happens to me when we do it in the bum. My hemorroids from last pregnancy pop out.
