For the last few weeks ive been getting
severe itching on my vagina and just
recently a couple of lumps have developed.
Ive only slept with my boyfriend so it
cant be stds. I was wondering if it is
pregnancy related or if its a heat rash as
its been incredibly hot here

Well it could be a chemical burn.
Not to be too personal but if u shave that
could also be it.
Using razors or nail can cause stuff like
that to happen.
Or it could be from extreme heat.
To relieve the pain id say try some
cooling lotion like cucumber melon.

Thats always fun, pregnancy has got to be
the best for getting eveything you dont
usually get well hopefully it cures up
pretty quick and you dont get a repeat
infection

i never got one my whole pregnancy. Which
is weird I guess because before I got
pregnant I would get them like every
couple months. They suck!

I've had one for a couple of weeks now and
it's only just clearing up.. It's been
driving me mad =( I used to get them every
so often, but pregnancy has seemed to make
it worse coz i've never had one this bad
before.
Glad the cream worked for you though =)

Thanks, hopefully when this one goes it
wont come back again! Thrush is awful and
don't want to experience it again. Ive
only got three and a half weeks left so
fingers crossed it wont happen again

Just an fyi I heard from a dr/few friends
that yogurt helps keep it clear and down
there in balance....
I also heard drinking cranberry juice on
occasional basis will actually not help
for yeast infections but utis as well its
natural and is safe for you preggo folk

Yeah my midwife told my about the
cranburry drink but I hate the stuff! And
no-ones really told me about the yoghurt.
Do you know if it actually works?

Yea yogurt is good for yeast infection
because the meds they give you can kill
the good and bad bacteria. There's a
specific culture in yogurt that helps out
your cha cha. It also helps balance the
p.H levels which can cause
itching/burning.
My whole life i've had 1 slight yeast
infection. I caught it at the burning and
it healed before it got severe. I didn't
have one my entire pregnancy or after.
I'm not gonna speak too soon, cuz my luck,
i'll jinx myself and wake up itching!!
Hahahaha!!
Good luck and i'm glad your cha cha is
feeling better!!
Sarah
