Yeast infection-first trimester

What do you do when you have a yeast infection. I have been using ONLY the topical cream, but worry it will hurt the baby. I am 10 weeks pregnant.

I had a slight one also at the start of my second trimester, I can't use the creams as they irritate me, my Dr told me to mix 1/3 cup white vinegar in 1 litre of water and bathe the opening 3 times a day and it worked, I don't have it anymore. it's amazing.

Drinks lots of water! I had a yeast infection my 1st trimester and that's all I did. No medication,  nothing. And it went away.

Monistat is totally fine.  I had one on the beginning and used that as well.  No worries mama:)

Call your doc. Theyll test and make sure before they give you anything serious. Try baking soda and cool water solution applied on the outside with a wash cloth, it does wonders for the itching and burning. Dont be surprised if you have quite a few reoccurences of this since we are more prone while pregnant.

You would probably have to call your doctor and ask.
