Pelvic pressure OUCH!

Ok ladies this post will probably have TMI. I have been experiencing extreme pressure on my pelvis for a few months now but my OB told me it's because the baby is sitting so low. Last night as i showered I noticed my vagina was extremely swollen on the inside ( i know i know TMI) I thought maybe it was just my head playing tricks but I then asked my husband to check for me and he freaked out! He said it wasn't like that a few days ago when we were intimate. He sad it felt like I had less room in there! Plus I have been feeling constant pressure especialy when I try to go to the bathroom and have the constant urge to urinate! Should I be worried since I am only 30 weeks? I had very small contractions about a week ago and have had constant back pain since. What do you guys think?

I've heard vaginal swelling is normal in the second half of pregnancy so is the needing to pee every other minute. I'd tell your OB about the swelling and back pain and all just to be on the safe side. The back pain and needing to pee could be a UTI which is common in pregnancy or it could all just be symptoms of pregnancy. Be well!

when I was 30 weeks with my last son I had to pee all the time it was like every 2 mins. the lil one can be laying on your bladder making you have to go to the bathroom. try using a pillow when you go to the bathroom cause that helped me a lot.
