Feels like everything is going to fall out

I’m 21 weeks pregnant and for a while I’ve noticed everything feels heavy and my vagina aches a lot. It feels like everything is going to fall out - especially when I go to the toilet. There’s a constant uncomfortable sensation and last night I was in so much pain. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?

It is super uncomfortable during pregnancy and when baby sits really low it is a lot of pressure. If it’s causing you pain and you’re feeling more pain when you go to the toilet I’d speak to your midwife of triage unit just to rule out anything like a uti x

@Samantha it’s not painful going to the toilet, it’s just the whole day down and feeling like everything is open - just feels like my insides are going to fall out even more than usual. Yeah I’m going to contact my midwife tomorrow.

A feeling of heaviness is normal for many women due to the pressure of the growing baby. Was the pain in your pelvis or pubic symphysis? This too is experienced by many but there are things you can do to try and alleviate. Speak to your midwife for support/reassurance x

I had this with my son a lot! It’s beginning more now heaviness sensation but with my son I couldn’t even sit upright as his head was on my cervix it was so uncomfortable

I have this recently. It feels like she’s going to slip out

I’m sure it’s normal but I’m going to mention it to my MW
