pimples on vagina

I have these pimple like things of the outside of my vagina on the área where I shave. I dont have any stds unless my boyfriend has recently cheated on me, I have been tested. I did some research and they could just be pimples. My question is could pregnancy create these pimples? Im going to call my doc tomorrow to have him look at them. I have never had this issue until I became pregnant.

Thank you so much for reassuring me ive been googling stds in fear of it being one and that my boyfriend had been cheating but.Im leaning towards it being skin tags due to the way they hang if that makes sense lol

that's usually when I get them; when I stop shaving regularly like i normally do. But check with the doc just in case. I got a skin tag on my 'gina during the first trimester. I was soooo embarrassed lol I cut it off.
I've never even had a skin tag anywhere on my body before and then BAM! All sorts of strange things happen down there during pregnancy lol

Probably skin tags! Very common during pregnancy, caused from extra hormones
