need some advice, opinions, and Suggestions?

It has nothing to do with lack of sex. At the end of my pregnancy, I had my internals, and yes they hurt. There is no room left down there!! You are also nervous and tighten automatically. Especially at the first, you don't know what to expect.

Honestly, squeezing someone's hand helps a lot. My hubby thought I was going to rip his hand off! Once he couldn't be there, and the nurse held my hand (poor lady).

What helped me is visualizing me being calm and "open" during the exams, the dr can get a better idea what is going on when we relax our pelvic area. You can certainly walk, etc, but the tightness is b/c you have a large baby in your uterus, not b/c you haven't had sex.

best wishes!!!

Perineal massage! Look it up, to find out methods and techniques. It is NOT masturbation. It is childbirth preparation.

It will help you be more flexible for a vaginal delivery (meaning more likely to avoid tearing or an episiotomy)

I agree with the 3rd answerer. Masturbation can be just as good as sex. You can get any kind of toy, but be careful not to hurt yourself and use lots of lube if it's been awhile! Stop if it becomes painful. Best of luck!

Your vagina will dilate on its own walking can help with the opening of your cervix but your opening will stretch just wait it out

Walk alot and then the closer you get to delivery date they will strip your membranes, and when they do this you might notice a little blood just dont freak......WALK WALK WALK

besides walking and nipple stimulation I usually recommend sex. but since that sounds like it can't happen I would try masterbation. (I hope I don't offend you...sorry)

using a toy could help but also the intense orgasms you get while masterbating can cause your uterus to tighten and therefore help to bring on contractions..:)

Well, you could buy a personal massager and use that down there to stretch things out.

take your mom's advice, walk as much as you can....
