TMI from a FTM 18 wks

[OurMiracle2014]

ok so TMI warning. I am 18 weeks.  I have been experiencing some sort of issue. I thought at first I was maybe getting a UTI.  Frequent urination (yes common in pregnancy itself) along with irritation although I've notice the irritation seems to be more in the vaginal area and there is no buring when I urinate. It's just like an irritating feeling. Even more odd it seems to randomly come and go. It will go away for a day or two and then half way through the day start bugging me again. Anyone deal with anything similar?  I have an OB visit on Monday.

It could be an external yeast infection.

Spoke with the nurse. I'm going to try something OTC between now and Monday. Hopefully that will take care of it.  If not I will be there Monday morning and they can test to see what's going on.

Could be a bladder or vaginal infection which is common during pregnancy.

Doesn't seem to be yeast. It's just very odd and random. I am going to put a call in to the dr today and we already have an appt for Monday.

Can't say what the cause might be. Ask the Dr.  Vagisil should take care of it until then.

It's common to get yeast infections during pregnancy even if you have not had them before. The urination would be due to the pregnancy but minor yeast infection symptoms could come and go....Days when you wear nylon underwear vs. cotton, work out, are seated more could bring on syptoms where on other days wearing cotton, breathable underwear and things staying dry downstairs you could be symptom free. If you don't shower reg. you may have more symptoms further away from shower hour you go. Call your Dr.

Oh and there is No discharge and No odd smell either.

Oh how would I know if my PH is off? Is that something I will have to wait and have the dr check Monday?
