Second Trimester Sex

Hi Mummies, Just wanted to find out more on what’s normal and what’s a red flag that I’ve to consult my gynae- after sex there’s vaginal pain and kinda burns when peeing. Not sure if it’s due to the changes in hormones or cuz there’s an infection(?) but also been feeling quite swollen below during this period but no peeing issue till after sex. Thanks for answering in advance! #advicepls

Yups normal. Partly as our pregnancy progresses, our vagina/pubic area will start to swell and be more sensitive. And also changes in hormone plays a part. I remember when doing sex when pregnant esp third trim, i feel like my vagina tore a little ? It stings. But ofc all these doesnt last

Thank you for your response! Omg tore a lil?!? That sounds nasty. I hope it did recover within a day.

hey! it happens too but mine doesn't last long. usually it's like direct aft doing it. but aft a while like the next morning, all back to norm. might be the hormones i guess(?). so far even when i come for appointments, my urine all okay. unless it prolongs, might be infection or UTI.

i actually don't 😂😂 i kind of let it be cuz it was okay after the first pee. and i kind of get used to it eventually.
