Yeast infection while pregnant? Help!

This is the first time I have ever had a yeast infection and it's horrible! I finished my antibiotics a couple days ago, but still itching bad and it's even visible on inside of my vagina! My OB still hasn't got back to me yet... Any other mommys experience this and know what to do??

I have always had issues w them luckily I havent ha one while preg. But if it that bad you need to do more than jus the med they are a weful but yogurt can help. Something in your diet may be triggering it or making it worse. Google it there are alot of foods to avoid and some that will help. Yogurt or foods with active cultures can help also avoid sugars they can trigger it. Goodluck its aweful dr have always told me im jus more prone to them. Also there is an azo pill that can help balance your ph level also feminine wash nothing scented with ph balance can help.

I usually buy monistat 7 day treatment the cream helps with the itching and heals my infections when I get them.
