I had three infections which caused me to have my baby at 30 weeks. I had my 7th kidney infection, a horrible yeast infection from the kidney infection antibiotics, and after my water ruptured I got the infection in my water. I was on 4 different antibiotics while in the hospital till the day I left. My baby got put on antibiotics for 4 days for the yeast infection and for the infection in my waters.
It is very common to keep a yeast infection and Bacteria Vaginosis (BV) during pregnancy. With the boost in hormones everything is thrown off such as your PH balance. My doctor was saying even what we eat, stress and sex could throw it off...the slightest things. So don't worry just keep your doctor informed because both can attribute to preterm labor.
t get hurt but if you were to go into labor and you do have a yeast infection the baby could get thrush which is a yeast infection in the babies mouth (yucky). And my doc recommend doing the 3 or 7 day dosage. She said the one day dosage sometimes isn't strong enough or gets rid of it even though it's supposed to be. She also said be sure to finish the 3 day or 7 day dosage before my next OB check and don't insert it all the way in.
Ohh I wanted to add if it was a yeast infection you'd be itchy and it would uncomfortable.
I just got done with both of those infections and it drove me crazy but its very common in pregnancy I never used the monistat 7 while pregnant but I don't cause pre term labor but the infection can well that's what I was told so it has to be treated as soon as possible
So i had an appt last week and they found blood in my urian said it maybe vaginal infection. Has anyone had this before and what may have caused it im very clean idk where it would come from i hardly have sex with my husband Anymore.
Oh dang!:/ ehh okay. ..
My hospital ***** though. ..
And im scared._.)
UGH! BUT OKAY..im tired of this... it just makes this pregnancy even worse!
Thank you!
What's a safe not medication I can use to treat a yeast infection? I heard keeping the area dry is best, but I also heard baby powder and cornstarch aren't good to use.
I don't think so. I had a yeast infection and uti and the doctor never mention that it could hurt the baby.
I'm 32w5d & I developed my first yeast infection during pregnancy less than a week ago.. you can use the monistat, but I'd tried something similar to that before & it just didn't work for me..
my OB prescribed a 7-day treatment called "Terconazole" vaginal cream.. you insert an applicator full for 7 nights at bedtime, and it works miracles. I've also been using Vagisil for relief. tonight will be my 5th night, and I'm so relieved!!
Hey I have had a UTI and had to take antibiotics.... BUT with my first baby boy I had a urinary tract infection every single doctor's appointment that I went to =( I had to take antibiotics the whole time (for 8 months) and he was perfectly healthy except for a little jaundice (but being born at 36 weeks he was really healthy) and besides the stomach aches and vomiting that the antibiotics caused it really did no harm =) I hope you feel better soon!
I have a mild yeast infection and I am 29 weeks pregnant. My doctor gave me two doses of flucanazole of 150 mg. I am scared to take the medication because of what I have been reading on line. Although there is not enough studies on the affects of the drug on human babies, I really don't want to take the chance. My question is, is leaving a yeast infection harmful to my baby??
If you test positive, eat lots of yogurt to help reduce that risk. Yeast infection (in your vag) just after giving birth is probably excruciating! And you can get them on your nipples too, and your baby can get a yeast infection in his/her mouth. This can cause some problems with breastfeeding, especially if you've never breastfed before!
Sorry to hear that. Monistat is probably the only med they recommend for yeast infection during pregnancy. Can't your doc prescribe something?? How long can you go on like this? Good luck to you. I hope it goes away!
