Call your ob, like I just did lol, they'll prescribe you what's safe for you to take. I get yeast infections maybe once a trimester & they can be uggghgh! Pregnancy hormones can trigger an imbalance of your ph & yeast and cause yeast infections throughout pregnancy, not just early pregnancy.  I'm 24wks. Baby #3. Soaps, detergents, tight clothes, not airing out, different clothing materials...etc. I had to switch to dove unscented sensitive soap because all other soaps irritate me.

They are normal all throughout pregnancy! Let your OB know because many times its hard to tell the difference between bacterial vaginosis and a yeast infection. They are both treated differently and your Dr will be able to put you on the correct medication
