Reply to "Frequency and Butt Burn in Pregnancy (oh and Vaginal Delivery Q)"

linaMember

I am 8 weeks pregnant and I had no butt burn/leakage problems before pregnancy, but I sure do now! I am living in a pile of Calmoseptine, and I rinse gently in the shower twice a day to get things clean and healthier. I tried a bidet, but I need the warm steam from the shower to do the trick.

I've heard that the higher levels of estrogen in pregnancy can make our skin more sensitive. As for the leakage... I guess it is just a fun pregnancy event. Ugh.

I'm glad I'm not alone- I was also worried about it.

I'm also nervous about the c-section/vaginal birth debate... I'm not too far along and I need to talk to my doctor more, but I'm personally leaning toward a c-section, as awful as another surgery sounds, but that's because I had some unbelievable hemorrhoids I had to have surgically removed and I just don't want to keep messing with things down there.

Good luck to you!
