It is very common to keep a yeast infection and Bacteria Vaginosis (BV) during pregnancy. With the boost in hormones everything is thrown off such as your PH balance. My doctor was saying even what we eat, stress and sex could throw it off...the slightest things. So don't worry just keep your doctor informed because both can attribute to preterm labor.

No my husband is not circumcised and we've been together 5 years and have virtually never used condoms and have no problem. Yeast infections are common in pregnancy however repeat ones can mean other things. Most important thing is have you been using your doctor and letting your doctor treat them? Also as mentioned above ph can be disrupted a lot during pregnancy as well. I have that problem occasionally and actually use a menopause cream once and awhile for a couple days when im having trouble with it. Yeast is normally itchy with white discharge sometimes and can have a slight odor. But I would definitely call your ob office tomorrow and discuss it.

Are you sure its a yeast infection? I had discharge well still do I thought it was a yeast infection but every time my doctor checked it wasnt. I started wiping with wet wipes it helped and got that pH body wash. No more itching
