Normal: No need for embarrassment. This happens and can be hormone related. There is always the possibility of bacterial infection with clitoral swelling and redness, even in pregnancy, so wise to let your OB know. Suggestions: ice, avoid irritation (blot/pat dry instead of wiping), bathe instead of shower, “tucks” pads, fragrance free soap (like dove).

Infection: There are a number of possible diagnoses. You could have a yeast infection and by scratching have caused a bacterial infection. I would recommend an exam to determine the issue.

Itchy: this should go away once u give birth. Put some moisturizing cream to soothe
