TMI** But kinda concerned/confused

Hey guys, this may be a little tmi, but I just started having this issue tonight. I'm possibly 3-4dpo now. My DH and I just tried to BD but we encountered an issue we've never had before, penetration was almost impossible, so we had to refrain from it. We dtd a lot this week, so I do not know if that's my answer. I'm not dry, I still have some noticeable CM but my vagina seems swollen, not sure if I'm describing it right and the opening is a lot smaller. Could this be a reaction to having ovulated? My cervix is also at medium and is definitely closed now and firm. I don't know exactly what this is a sign of, my doctor is out of the country for a few weeks, I will probably ask to speak to her replacement on Monday but I'm going to go crazy over the weekend if I don't have any clue what's happening. If anyone knows what could potentially lead to this sudden swollen/thickening type of thing let me know. Thank you for any info. you may have!

Hello :-)


It sounds to me like you just, um, wore yourself out down there. A lot of rigorous BDing can do that... I don't necessarily think it means you O'ed, although it doesn't mean you didn't O. Try using a sperm friendly lubricant like preseed or just wait a day or so... I am sure it's fine, but definitely call your Dr office to make sure!


Hope this helps!
