Sounds like what has been going on with me. I'm 20 weeks and for about 5 days now my vagina has been so itchy and all red and swollen but my discharge also changed in consistency. It's thicker and white. If you don't have any discharge it could just be what your Dr said. But if it is a yeast infection I'd get monistat(it's safe all throughout pregnancy). Hope this helps.
