Yep I got a horrible ear infection and the antibiotics gave me a bad yeast infection.  I had never had one before either.  The monistat 7 will make it go away and you can get it over the counter.

Yaa it probably is a yeast infection! I had to take antibiotics at the beginning of my pregnancy and I got a yeast infarction and I had never had one before in my life!

Antibiotics are prone to causing yeast infections because they mess with our natural pH levels. Go ahead and make an appointment with your ob to make 100% sure that is it and they'll give you something that's safe for you & baby that will knock it out quick.

Then it could be a yeast infection I'd call your ob and see what they think! Being itchy down there is so uncomfortable!! They might recommend some cream to give you relief!
