My Va Jay Jay hates me!

I remember towards the end of my first two pregnancies, I got this dull ache all through my vagina.  Every time I moved it ached.  Sitting hurt.  Standing hurt.  Walking hurt.  It was awful.  I felt like i had ridden a bike for 100 miles on a really hard seat.  And its starting now!  I don't think it started until at least 30 weeks before and its here at 16.  I may lose my mind this pregnancy!  Anyone else?

Re: My Va Jay Jay hates me!

  • Oh my gosh, YES! I'm 16 weeks too and it kicked in yesterday.  Mine really only bothers me when I'm walking though.  I did do a sort of strenuous exercise yesterday, so I attribute it to that, and I'm really hoping it passes!  But I'm the same way...I feel like I'm 30 weeks pregnant!  It's made me dread the end of this pregnancy a lot.

  • I just got this a few days ago after sex. My sex drive finally returned after being MIA in the first tri, but I don't want to do it again if that's the new normal.

  • Yes! Mine started hurting and sometimes stinging too a couple weeks ago and it won't go away! I'm a FTM mom though so I'm mostly panicking about it.
  • my crotch is really painful. It has been for a few weeks. At first I thought it was a uti, but after some good google time, I think its Pelvic Girdle pain.. or pubic symphysis disorder. I mostly have a dull ache. But if I stand on one foot to get dressed, get in and out of car, sex, walk to much (well, it makes me waddle), etc... the pain gets worse. I have my next appointment Friday so will see if dr. agrees with my/google diagnosis and see what they recommend, but it does not seem like there is much to do to make it better. sucks because i did not have it with my first two. they say the last child is the problem child, right?

  • No, other than a few pinching shooting pains those first couple weeks, no pain in the whoo-ha. I instead get crazy tailbone spasm pain that radiates to my butt cheeks, hips, and back. Laying down doesn't help. Sitting doesn't help. And standing makes it worse.

  • @smilormarie I also have the tailbone pain. It started later with my last pregnancy. However this one started way early lice around 11-12 weeks. I bought a coccyx seat cushion from Amazon for work and it has made a huge difference.  
  • I'm so glad I'm not alone. I've  been experiencing this for 2 weeks and my husband thinks I'm exaggerating or that I don't know where the pain is coming from. I told my doctor and he stated that it's normal and I'll just have to deal with it.

    My exact thoughts after sex last night. I'm not sure I can take the pain. 
  • Ah yes the wonderful lightening crotch....curse some of these pregnancy side effects. ...
  • Lol I looked over at my mom and sister yesterday and yelled, "MY VAGINA HURTS! UGHHHH!". My husband didnt appreciate that lol. But it does... And I'm crampy. I forgot how things start changing quickly at this point. I'll be 20 weeks Monday and I feel like I'm growing by the minute. 

    @bananers my sex drive just came back too, I had it in the very beginning and then it kind of Went back to normal until the last week. And afterwards sometimes the next day even, I have that throbbing heavy feeling too. I think it's just from all the blood flow and whatnot.
  • This happens to me too! When I was pregnant with DS, it got so bad that I insisted DH look to see if everything was okay. He actually yelped and told me everything was all swollen and discolored. The doctor said it was just another normal joy of pregnancy. 

    I still chuckle to myself over DH's expression when he got down there to see. He stayed by my head when I delivered. 
  • Haha, @skelly70 I had my DH check me too when the sensation first started. I'm glad I'm not the only one who's done that.
  • I'm sorry everyone else is going through this - but it's reassuring to know I'm not the only one!
