I have 2 daughters but I had also in my live,two miscarriages.one at four months ant one ealier... so i am staying anxious for this pregnancy...I don,t want  do something wrong for the baby. Is it also a risq for the baby with this infection ? could you help me? thank you so much.

I used the normal cream, the doctor said i was okay, just when you use the applicators dont stick them right in..just a tiny bit or with you finger.

I got yeat infections with my pregnancies.  With my 1st son they told me to use the cream that you externally use til the 2nd trimester.  then if it is still bad use the internal.  For my second son, they let me use monistste in my first trimester.  If you do not feel right using it, and you can bare the itching, try the cream from the monistste, that you externally use to supress the itching.
