    Thanks everyone - I think after my Obs appt today, I'll nip to the chemist and get some of the canestan cream - it's actually getting so itchy now that it hurts I really hope I feel relief soon

    you poor thing! Yeah thrush is awful.

    Just make sure you ask your Ob about it while you're there as you may not be able to use the applicator you get with the kit. For example at 30 weeks I had it and as I mentioned above, I was only allowed to insert the applicator half way up..... then it come back last week (34 weeks) and my MW told me not to use the applicator part at all, just to use the cream externally to help relieve it.

    You can use the applicator, just be gentle with it
