Third trimester here and that whole area down there feels so swollen and heavy, bohot uncomfortable while sitting or walking. Is this normal at this stage? Will mention to my gynac also but wanted to know what helped u girls.
In our times, we used to sit in lukewarm water with a pinch of salt to soothe any swelling, but always ask your doctor first before trying. Avoid standing in the kitchen for long hours, take plenty of rest and sit on a soft cushion.
Omg, I got this in my 3rd trimester and panic searched everything, thinking it was some dangerous infection! It turned out to be just pressure from the baby's head. Please rest as much as you can, sleep on your left side, and ask your doctor if you see any redness or have pain.
Beta, ye sab bache ke bhaari hone ki wajah se hota hai. Aap thoda aaram karo, pairon ke neeche takiya rakh kar leto. Aur han, bilkul tight kapde mat pehnna.
I've read that sleeping on your left side helps improve blood circulation and reduces pressure on that area. I hope you find some relief soon, please consult your doctor if it feels too painful.
Haan na, swelling is very uncomfortable because of the extra blood flow down there. Try using a cold compress and don't stand for too long at a stretch. Loose cotton clothes pehno, comfort milega.
