Swollen pelvis

Good evening everyone 🤍🫶🏼 hope you’re all ok!! I’ve had to come off work a little earlier than I wanted as I’m struggling to move around. I’m usually very active so finding it tricky 😭 but in the last few days I’ve noticed that I’m swollen just under the bump, like at the front… I don’t know how to explain it haha 🤷🏼‍♀️ I did the silly thing of Googling it and now I’m worrying. I’m 37 weeks + 2 and I do have a midwife appointment coming up on Wednesday... shall I just leave it until then?! Or should I be contacting someone?!! Thank youuuuuu 💝

Do you mean your public mound?

Pretty normal I would say x

@Rebecca just had to google this haha sorry but yes I do!! It’s not crazily swollen, just a little and I’m a worrier hahaha xx

@Hannah thank you lovely!! That’s what I’m hoping!! And then I can just mention it on Wednesday xx

@Charlotte totally normal! It’s one of the places the body puts its excess fat stores during pregnancy, especially during the third trimester and it also becomes engorged with the extra blood flow like everywhere else down there can. In my first pregnancy I got more stretch marks there than on my stomach! They’re like a cm thick it was so big my poor skin just split basically.

@Rebecca aw this has made me feel soooo much better thank you!! Oh no way, I didn’t know that at all!!! Bless you xx

I have it too, totally normal but also its where the head is if your baby is dropping down so can be a good sign. I can feel my babys head there, around the knicker line sort of area!

@Shiv thank you so much!! Awww that’s made me feel a lot better 🥰
