Also, I know this sounds odd but you might try diaper rash cream. It works very well. Also, when you are going to bed you might air that area out by not putting on underwear or things that will keep air from getting there. Do it about 30 minutes to hour every night and you should notice it getting better. Desitin or the thicker diaper creams are best.
17 weeks pregnant.

The only thing I can tell you is that you need to see your doctor as soon as possible. I haven't expenenced anything like that during my pregnancy. Doesn't sound normal though on the other had you may be losing your mucus plug that is a very heavy discharge as well but for the blisters I don't know. Maybe you can get advise by an on call nurse. Good luck and I hope you feel better.

You should call your doctor's office. Someone should be on call on the weekends. I know we hate to bother our doctors, but when they became doctors they knew there would be an "on-call" to go along with it. In my opinion this is serious enough to call about.
In the meantime try covering the blisters with Vaseline to keep them from being irritated by the discharge, but don't use a lot of it because it's not water based.

Keeping it dry would really help. Taking a warm bath might soothe the blisters. when you get out of the tub I would pat dry and use the cold setting on the blow dryer to dry them. The cool air would probably feel good too. Good Luck you dont have far to go.

I'm 6 mo. pregnant with my 2nd child and I know how uncomfortable you have to be right now. If I were you, I would just lay without underwear and let everything kind of air out and dry up (I'm assuming that your blisters are in this area). I don't know what else to reccomend. I hope you feel better soon :)

Alls I know is that when you got raw, sore, bleeding/pink skin in areas that rub, rub, rub (this is not at all funny), Vaseline can be used for the symptoms. As far as I know, it provides cooling comfort and is helpful to decrease the swelling.
