Need help 7 weeks pregnant and some sort weird discharge, im concerned

ok last few days my vagina has felt a bit sore and tender the last day i have been having a lot of white sorta like hand cram but very thick discharge. ive had 2 kids never had this before. no tummy cramps or nuffin just this uncomfortable feeling and this stuff what is it?

[Clysta]

Is there any swelling or itching? It's possible it's a yeast infection--mine have always had discharge similar to that, but it's been in copious amounts and stains my clothing.

no swelling but a little itchy... its horrible. is this serious?
and what causes this?

[stacey10]

if its itchy it may be thrush, and that can be due to the hormones when your pregnant, just go to the chemist and they will give you something to use thats safe during pregnancy, probably canneston (sp), if its not itchiy an increase of vaginal discharge is quite normal, I had it everyday while pregnant

[leesha89]

no its really grose like and its heaps. its not really itchy its a very uncomfortable feeling though.. that diesnt mean my bubs is sick ay? just concerned after all the health **** ive been through this week that now this happens

[stacey10]

is it cottage cheesy, if so then its prob thrush, and no it shouldnt have anything to do with bub, I use to joke about being able to put mine on crackers like a cheese spread (gross I know) but thats how much I used to have,

[Clysta]

Nah. Yeast infections are super common in women. I get em whenever I take medicines for UTI's only--I hate em. You can call your doctor for different medicines that you can use. There are also OTC things that you can use to test to see if it is a yeast infection or not.

yeah it is ive just looked it up online and looked at a couple pictures.. wits horrible it just keeps coming never experienced anyhting like that

[Clysta]

I remember my first one, it freaked me out. Once you start treatment it should get better. My indicator was the huge HUGE amounts of nasty white discharge I would get.

[stacey10]

its you friend that keeps comming hahaha, just go to the chemist and they will give you something you can get over the counter :)

[leesha89]

sweet thanks so much guys i knew there was something wrong when i went to toilet this morn and cleaned it all up then its back again this afternoon... sure did freak me out

[leesha89]

so ive just read Amoxicillin  antibotic (antibiotic) can cause this ive been on it for a week niw so now im not stressed so much midwife just said to apply youghurt to area very strange until ive finshed antibotic (antibiotic) weird

[stacey10]

yep but you have to make sure its the plain youghurt :) with the bacillus blhblh in it or it wont do a thing, or canneston will clear it up super quick, forgot that you were on antibiotics, that is the main cause of thrush

[stacey10]

oops I mean blah blah blah, biffidus etc

[leesha89]

lol yer i didnt get told this and ive never had thrush before it not a nice feeling
