feel the burn!!!

I'm thinking I have a yeast infection... I have the worst itching I have ever experienced, and it is red and swollen. Is this common? What can I do for relief?

You can use canestan.  Also...limit your sugar intake as it could make it worse.  Change your underwear frequently unless you are wearing a liner (then change the liner frequently).  No baths until it's cleared up.  Drink lots of water as well.

simple creams that you get from the chemist will clear thrush, something like canneston, but make sure you tell them that your pregnant (if your not showing) and the one that you use for 6 days is the best during pregnancy :)
