And after reading your comment, don't stress! You produce more sugar (glucose) when your pregnant that fungal growth thrives off of. It's extremely common to deal with yeast infections or bacterial when you are pregnant.  So many women who have never had issues, will usually as some point in there pregnancy deal with this as well!

Switch to fragrance  free detergent when you wash your clothes. Make sure you are not using any bath soaps down there. Just warm water. Even be careful if you're in the tub not to condition your hair in it or anything like that you will soak in.  The more you try and "fix" the problem with crazy stuff you find on the Internet, the worse you typically will make it. Loose cotten panties, and go "free" when possible to let everything air out. You certainly don't want anything restricting and tight that just helps promote fungal growth.  Your body gets so out of whack when you're pregnant that more than likely you're becoming more sensitive to something you're coming in contact with if it's persistently coming back. Please don't put yogurt down there, almost all yogurt you get nowadays has some type of sugar in it that will only feed what's going on down there, and not all yogurt actually even contains live cultures of lactobacillus in it. You're better off just taking a straight dose of lactobacillus with a pro biotic if you absolutely want to take that route. But without preventing it from coming back by doing the stuff above, you'll be back in the same cycle.

A glove of garlic,  take the skin off of the clove, lance the garlic (it makes the garlic "weep". Insert into the vagina for a few hours. Repeat daily for about 3-5 days. Yeast cannot live in the presence of garlic. All natural!  Works like a miracle!

If you've had sex with you hubby while infected, it is possible he is carrying it and reinfecting you. Have him talk to his doctor for treatment.
