Yeast Infection

Ok. Here is what has been happening to me lately.  I am so frustrated and don't know what to do.  I had a yeast infection and inserted the cream the doctor presribed me.  It went away and then ended up coming back the following week.  I got prescription and then ended up getting a bladder infection.  The doctor prescribed me with an antibiotic for that.  I got a yeast infection again for the third time.  Ended up going back to the doctor and I still had the yeast infection as well as bacterial vaginosis.  She gave me inserts for the yeast and antibiotic for the other.  I have already used the three inserts last Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night and I have two more pills which will last until tomorrow morning.  On Monday I was still itching and call the doctor, but they said to wait it out to see if the medicine kicked in and to call on Wednesday if not better.  Well, I am making myself wait until tomorrow to call, but the itching is still there and it is driving me crazy. I can't have sex and lately have been wanting to, but need to get better, but it seems like I do and then I get another infection.  Has anyone had this problem before?  I am 6 months pregnant and in need of some advice. Please Help!

It couldn't be my DH, b/c we haven't had sex in a long time.  So I don't know what it is.  I feel much better today.  I am just going to eat lots of yogurt and drink lots of water and wait it out and see if it clears up over the weekend.

a yeast infection can be passed back and forth between a man and a woman when they have sex, you should see about getting your dh/so checked out and see if they have a yeast infection that needs to be treated

Being pregnant your 'her' is very sensitive. Bacteria is just something that pregnant women have to be very careful of.
I dont know what to tell you about being uncomfortable... yeast infections are very uncomfortable..you'll just have to waite it out.
Drink plenty of water though.. Those bladder infections are very painful.
