Often, vaginal lip swelling is caused by a typical yeast infection. I'd talk to your doctor about it before thinking about trying to treat it with over the counter medications though, as pregnancy changes everything and this may not be the cause at all.

I wish I could be more of a help, but it's hard to assume the cause since this could also be just a normal symptom of late pregnancy.

Haha, I bet.

I JUST saw an ad on tv for a kit made by vagisal that can actually test at home for a yeast infection. It comes with an little indicator thing and tests your vagina's pH or something, and that way if it is in fact a yeast infection, you can go ahead and get a cream now instead of waiting until the 20th for answers.
