    A friend of mine had really bad thrush when she had her last bub. She didn't realise it was thrush but the midwife commented on how bad it was. There wasn't any problem with the baby though.

    I was also told not to use the applicator.

    The pessaries work in a couple of days or less. Take some probiotics on top of that and I'm sure you'll be fine.

    I've had it a couple of times. Used the one day pessary but was told to insert it without the applicator.... Cleared up quickly.

    Aww sweets!
    No advice really but I am sure that you can talk to a pharmacist or GP and ask what's the best??

    I am sure you can get rid of it before thumper comes!

    Thanks everyone! My midwife actually recommended to use the cream WITH the applicator! How does it work without, do i just put some cream on my finger and try to get it on the 'walls' so to speak? Thinking i might look for the tablets instead, sounds easier but she said the cream was easier and very efficient...

    You can use the applicator. It will not harm your baby or go through the cervix. Just be gentle when inserting it.
