hi all. I'm 33 weeks pregnant and I wrote here before about numbness in my vaginal and back passage area. I had an mri done 2 weeks ago and nothing bad was found. I've been ok but today i kind of feel it there again. I guess I'm just looking for more reassurance. would the mri have shown anything bad like cauda equina or anything. does anyone else think this is all baby?

sounds like you’re feeling the baby. Also, a firm diagnosis of cauda equina is made using an MRI, which you have had done. Yes, it would have shown up. my daughter is also pregnant and she gets all kinds of strange feelings but she has books on pregnancy that she refers to which reassure her that it’s normal. Try to relax about this and enjoy your pregnancy. and remind yourself that with anxiety comes negative thoughts that are not based on fact. Focus on the positive. Focus on things like getting ready for the baby, things that are positive and happy. take care
