Constant severe pain, pressure in my vaginal area

Hi Alex,
A quick question. I am 28 weeks pregnant with my second child and am experiencing constant severe pain, pressure in my vaginal area. It hurts to walk, put on pants and get up off the lounge. I had this with my daughter but only for a few weeks leading up to the birth. I still have 7 weeks left before maternity leave but i am finding it extremely hard to even get out of bed! Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Michaella

Answer: Hi Michaella,
Thank you for your enquiry. This may be due to the position of the baby at the moment and it may improve when the baby moves again. You could see a Physiotherapist for treatment and you should also do lots of pelvic floor exercises.
Best wishes,
Alex
