I think I have a swollen lymph node in my groin region

It seems smaller then it was a few days ago and it was next to a itchy bump that was a hair follicle, since then that has disappeared.

I have an prenatal appt next Thursday and can’t miss work without notice. I’m out of sick time and really do not want to rock the boat. The bump isn’t painful, I wouldn’t even notice it was there if I didn’t routinely check my lymph nodes (slight hypochondria).

Would you wait till your next appt or call the l&d; ward to check for infection. I can’t lose my job due to attendance, my insurance is under me. I’ve noticed the bumps before and it always goes away. It usually hair follicles but with being pregnant any sort of infection is no good.
