Idk how to ask this...pain in crotch area?

Question

The last few days, my vagina has been really sore in the morning...kind of feels bruised or something. It goes away as the day goes on but I can barely get out of bed because of it. I have to hold my crotch and roll out. I feel like it's probably a normal 3rd trimester symptom (maybe my pelvis changing so baby can come?) but I'm not sure. Does anyone else have aches and pains like this? Any remedies?

Answer

Pelvic girdle pain, maybe? I've had this since 20 weeks, but it's much worse now that I'm 34 weeks. Basically, the relaxin that your body is producing makes your pelvic floor relax and when it relaxes too much, too soon it can really hurt because of all the internal downward pressure. Kind of feels like you hit your crotch on a bicycle crossbar 😁 Things I've found that can make it better are keeping walking to a minimum through the day, no high impact workouts, sleeping with a pillow between your legs, doing Kegals, staying active all day (sitting or laying down tends to make it worse)  and warm showers or baths. Good luck! ❤️

Answer

My crotch is so painful right now, I think it's just spreading for baby but by the end of the day for me laying down is really painful! I'm 31 weeks.

Answer

Am 34 weeks and I have the same issue. When it happens. I run a warm bath and put Epsom salt in it.
