i have had 2 Y.I. so far during my pregnancy and was instructed to use over the counter monistat.  the first one i was still in 1st trimester, dr instructed me not to insert the applicator too far in while administering med.  i've been told that it is quite common for YI and UTI's during pregnancy.  infact i am taking antibiotics right now for a UTI, which will probably trigger another YI from the antibiotics!! so annoying more then anything else, i am 37weeks pregnant and as if i'm not already uncomfortable enough, right?
