I'm Currently Feeling: | Thrush Has anyone else suffered from thrush since you have been pregnant? and what did you use to get rid of it?
I had a uti about a week ago so was given medication for it and told it may cause thrush, and with my luck, it did, I have been given canesten cream and the pills that you insert inside you. 
Has anyone used these, my doctor said they were totally baby friendly, but i'm a little worried. xx |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Aww hon, sorry you have it. I hope it goes away for you soon
I wouldn't worry about it though hon, if the doctor said it was ok then it probably is.  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I ate so much yogurt because when I was on antibiotics I started showing symptoms. I was very fortunate and it cleared on it's own.... thank goodness I didn't eat nasty yogurt for nothing!! But she did say if it turned into the full blown thing that the medication used to clear it up is completely baby safe!! I hope it goes away soon! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I have had thrush since pregnant and my doctor prescribed canestan pessary and external cream. I was really worried about using the pessary and rang and double checked with him and then went to the chemist and checked with them lol! They said it was fine to use just be extra careful inserting the pessary and dont insert too far in. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | i had thrush too, gosh it was really annoying, couldnt sleep at night, was feeling sore down there all the time and itchy as well.. but i was told by midwife its ok to use canesten pill that you insert inside you as it won`t go up to your cervix anyway so you can relax and do it! Hope you get better soon... it took me 2 weeks to get better.  |
