    With the natural yoghurt, it's probably best to insert it yourself. Make sure it's the natural yoghurt though.
    You can also try drinking cranberry juice, or a teaspoon of bi-carb soda in a glass of water. These 2 methods will lower the ph in your urine.
    If it keeps recurring, best to get it checked out by your GP. Also the suggestion about getting your DP checked out is a good one too, otherwise it'll be going backwards and forwards between you both.

    i just went through the very same thing... i was on antibiotics and and got the tell tale itch.... i have got some probiotics which are little tablets to have once a day when you have been taking antibiotics, they cleared it up right away, just make sure you ask for jelp as i was told there are a few we cant have when rpegnant, but there is one that is safe...

    I used Canesten when I was around 10 weeks pregnant with DS. The pharmacist said it was fine to use... you only use it for a few days anyway. I'd just double check with your Pharmacist first though

    I was also told by the pharmacist that canestan is safe - although other brands are not.
