Being Paranoid

Hey Everyone!
Please help me to relax! I am 15.5 weeks pregnant, had no complications and everything seemed fine. Yesterday I went to a doctor for my monthly check up. Everything was fine, heard the heartbeat (159). I asked the doctor to check for Vaginal Bacteria or Yeast Infection, (I noticed different discharge few days before the doc. appointment), and she took a pap and looked under the microscope and told me that I do have yeast infection. She gave prescription, and told me not to worry. I am sitting at work now, and cant stop worried what if something can happen????? Of course I goggled stuff and some sites say that you can easily have a miscarriage if you have Vaginal Bacteria. Now I am paranoid…. What if doc did not checked for VB???? Because I cant stop worrying about it, I start feeling like I have cramps and all that stuff( which is probably just in my head) Please reassure me that everything will be fine!!! Thank you all!!!!!

I had a yeast infection while pregnant, the doctor wasn't concerned, told me to use OTC treatment b/c i was symptomatic. it's a common occurance.

I would treat the yeast infection and go from there. If there continues to be a problem then you can bring up the BV to your doctor.

  yeast infection is not dangerous for you or the baby and the doctor would have seen if  it was BV. Don t worry ,take the medication and  try not to worry too much .
