Same thing happened to me when I started shaving. For once, twice a week is too much. The vaginal lips are very sensitive and there is no need to shave that often. Cut it down to once a week or fewer. The bumps though are just irritation from shaving. Shaving cream always made me break out in those bumps too. The only thing that works for me now is the razors with the shaving cream already on their. It is way easier to shave with those razors and does not give me the bumps. Good luck.
