vaginal infection during pregnancy

[greenmother49]

During pregnancy I had intense itching the last two weeks and my baby had a rash all over at birth.  What happened?  The doctor said the baby was just prone to allergies (which she was) but I was treated very badly in the hospital (baby was isolated in a room, when I went to feed her they sprayed the air as I left and actually sprayed in my face one time and the nurse actually shouted "get out".  I had not had any sexual contact with anyone but my husband as I felt they thought I had some sort of disease.  After the birth the itching stopped and after a few days the baby's rash went away.  What do you suppose it was?  Could my husband have touched me with unwashed hands, or possibly I missed the mark when wiping myself?

I was embarrassed at the way I was being treated and didn't know who to talk with.  I never saw the same doctor as it was a clinic situation so I never got the chance to ask the doctor.  My husband said nothing.  The baby is happy and thriving but she seems to be allergic to everything.  Her pediatrician said "I don't know" when I asked him.  A nurse/relative didn't want to talk about it  with me but apparently had no problem telling other relatives. I never had relations with anyone but my husband so it cannot be anything like sexually transmitted disease.   Thank you for talking with me. I am so puzzled.

I'm really not sure, your doctor views are better then ours. Will the baby be okay? Why were u treated that way. I'm getting upset about that, did you ask? I would of told the chief of the hospital how you were treated. That was rude, maybe you had an yeast infection I did but was given the cream for it
Why was the baby isolated? What does your husband think?  Did they test you, you need to speak to your doctor. I hope you are doing Better and the baby as well
