For the thrush, it is safe to use the pessary, which you buy over the counter in the chemist... and they work really well. However, if it is really bad, you may need to use a couple over a period of weeks.... ask the pharmacist

Mum2Be instincts are normally pretty fine tuned, so if you're in any doubt, and think there is something wrong, then get yourself into the weekend doc.. there's always someone available for pregnant ladies
