I have a bad case of thrush and have been prescribed a pessarie but im worried about inserting it being 35 weeks pregnant, Is this safe? I have been getting sharp pains up there and wondering if this is the head engaging. Any ideas?
You should be fine chick, i've been using it throughout my pregnancy and everything is fine. Doc wouldnt put you or your baby at risk. I get the shooting pains aswell, i think there normal. My midwife said it could be baby starting to engage or it could just be round ligament pains. Just avoid sudden movements. xx
I had to use a pessary for thrush after i'd given birth, I got some interesting stick contraption to do it with too lol. It is very small, not even like a tampon so I doubt you will even feel it.
