This happened to me with my second. It was awful. I ended up needing to get prescription strength stuff and a lot of new cotton underwear.

I used to be a medical assistant and work in an urgent care so we saw this a lot. I heard from a few doctors that if you keep getting them - it could actually be your partner that keeps giving it to you as the yeast also can live on them. So I would recommend both you AND your partner get treated. Not sure about the UTIs however other than always pee after sex. Maybe try a vaginal probiotic?

Are you 17 weeks postpartum or 17 week pregnant?

I seen in the comments you said you refrained from sex. It can also actually be from the baby causing imbalances.

I experienced this in my second trimester and actually accused my man at one point 😭 but he got tested and didn’t have anything.

I was given this pill by the doctor that’s only safe AFTER first trimester, one time dose that clears up the infections. I don’t know the name, but you can ask your doctor about medications. Drinking cranberry juice is also good for at home cleansing of the vagina. Good luck girl!

Transgender vs. Transracial

Let me start by saying I’m neither anti-trans nor pro Candace Owens. I saw this video and was wondering other people’s thoughts. Is there a difference between being transgender and transracial?

Hi there!

Part of me has given up on having that close best friends. It’s so hard to make really good friends and connect with people. I see people alll the time hanging out. Moms and kids hanging out and I get so jealous. Maybe one day for me that will happen. Well with that being said feel free to message me lol!
