• Xenforo Cloud will be upgrading us to version 2.3.5 on March 3rd at 12 AM GMT. This version has increased stability and fixes several bugs. We expect downtime for the duration of the update. The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version.

Anyone else expecting a November sparkler? *Updated with due dates!*

I would feel comfortable taking a probiotic, plus it is supposed to help with any digestional discomfort if you have been having any. Would eating yogurt with live cultures including Acidiphilus be equivalent to taking a tablet?
 
I had one every damn month during second and third tri with dd, my first ones ever, I had no idea what the hell was going on with the first one!! So hoping they don't come back this pregnancy!!!
 
Thanks Peanut! I will be taking the necessary precautions in the moisture department! lol

Yeah I am going to take the probiotics because I know they work and I know they aren't going to harm. Just wanted other opinions! PLUS they will help keep away future YI's so it's WIN WIN!

Thanks everyone!! :) Just wanted a little more reassurance!

Oh and to answer your question bubs yes eating yogurt is the same as taking tablet HOWEVER i hate yogurt lol... so thats why I take the tablets instead! :)

Oh I wasn't sure if you would have to eat like 10 yogurts a day to get the same impact as taking a tablet. I force myself to eat yogurt everyday for the health benefits, but I gag with 90% of the bites. I don't hate it, but I certainly don't eat it for fun.
 
hi ladies! hope you don't mind if i join in a bit late! thank you for the invitation, peanutmomma :)

i am due november 14th with our first baby. had a missed miscarriage with my first pregnancy, in nov 2012, and am still (!!) super nervous as a result. hoping to start feeling baby moving about soon!

Oh gosh I hope it gets better! My son was a dream compared to poppy I don't remember any tantrums at all :shrug:

Welcome! I lost my angel in November as well. Had she survived, I'd have been due two days ago. It's made me a lot more anxious this time around.

There's a pregnancy after a loss for November mamas, too. x https://babyandbump.momtastic.com/pregnancy-after-loss/1754191-november-2013-rainbow-babies.html
 
TMI - I think I'm getting another yeast Infection. No itching/burning YET but a little yeast when I wiped.. I know all the signs I have had like a million of them. I just had one at the beginning of the pregnancy and was on 7 day monistat even though it had cleared up but doc saw a little yeast in my PAP results. I DO NOT want to do another 7 day.... SOOOOOO when I wasn't preggers I used to take Acidiphilus pills (1 tablet a day) usually in about a week YI would be GONE!! I have read it's safe... would you girls take it??? I don't want to call my stupid doctor because I can see it already he will say take the Monistat 7 but it's not even fully blown and i feel like I can nip it in the bud with the acidiphilus tablets.

Yes, do take acidophilius or other probiotics. Totally safe. (You may find it isn't enough though-- I usually can nip in in the bud with those but not while pregnant. My midwife told me with my last pregnancy that because of the hormonal changes yeast is harder to get rid of in pregnancy. I think I'm on the verge of one too....)

I thought cranberry juice was for a urinary tract infection? Does it work on yeast too?

I, unfortunatley, had many as teenager due to high blood sugars. Stop drinking anything but water and Cranberry juice, or take cranberry suppliments. No matter what change your undies twice per day and when you get out of the shower, do not rub but pat yourself dry. Don't use ANY powder as it keeps the moisture in.

Good advise, but if you drink cranberry juice be careful not to choose one with added sugar (most of them do) x
 
Hello turnitout and any other new ladies I may have missed. Welcome...this is a very friendly and supportive thread so you are in good company :)

Yay to all the fruit changers today. I'm an avocado now, but I swear next week I'll be an onion and loads of the onions I see are smaller than the navel orange I was at 15 weeks and onion is 17 weeks. As you can see, I'm still having issues with these fruits hahaha.

Indigestion has started to kick in for me this week which is annoying. Was hoping I wouldn't get it until further along. What does everyone else take for theirs? I'm using gaviscon at the mo but it's not really helping too much.

Angel I know this sounds a bit gross and strange but the best tip someone gave me is to apply natural yoghurt to your lady bits when you have a YI and don't want to/can't use the cream. It's a bit messy but very cooling and the yoghurt helps to break down the infection. Might be worth a try if you can face it!

I'm always querying it too and end up in the veg aisle of the supermarkets trying to size up everything.

I have heard of that too!!! Never had the guts to try but luckily I'm not at the itchy/burning stage so it's not like i'm seeking relief but I can see where cold yogurt could be soothing albeit kinda gross! LOL I took probiotics today and yesterday and less yeast so i'm hoping it's working... Gotta give it at least a week though to see true results! :)

You ladies rock because I love that I can come to you with TMI and it's perfectly ok! lol

I'm having issues with the fruit change as well. I am a sweet potato today!!! woohooo 18 weeks. And that seems on target because I have seen some BIG Sweet Potatos BUT onion??? that was way smaller than the orange to me. IDK i see mostly small onions!

Still love fruit change day! hahaha
 
hello everyone- Okay Cranberry juice can be used for both UTI and YI as it flushes the kidneys out and causes less bacterial growth in the area in general. Thus, the yeast doesn't have as much to feed on. I have never heard the yogurt thing... interesting I must say.
HAppy Fruit changing to you ladies today. BubsMom changes tomorrow and a few of us on Sunday. Yippee!! I too think that the difference is kind of strange on the onion to sweet potato. If the ones who created the fruit ticker could have said, "large white onion" or something more descriptive maybe we qall wouldn't be at the store with the measuring tapes thinking how did I go from round orange to a flatter smaller onion? LOL

The sun is shining here this morning and I hope it stays around today. I need some happy weather like the warm sunlight. I am so happy it is the end of DH's work week as I can occupy my time easier on the weekends with him than during the week by myself. No huge plans or anything this weekend, but I am sure we will be outside if the weather cooperates and I know I want to go donate a bunch of stuff we don't use or clothes that don't fit to a thrift store. Then, there will be more room upstairs to move stuff around.
I started another thread to see what everyone will guess for baby's gender before Tuesday. Two of the responders thus far have switched what they guessed at my 12 week scan mark. LOL Yet again though there is not a huge difference on guesses. It's pretty much 50/50 again LOL. Love it if you all want to guess again. If not that's okay too
 
Angel - Sweet potato??? I wish they would stick with fruit and none of this vegetable business... Sweet potatoes are all knobby and not cute... LOL...

The only onions I have seen that are larger than navel oranges are the Sweet Vidalia onions. They regular yellow and red ones are smaller, right?

Yeah sweet potato's aren't cute at all but at least they have SWEET in the name!!! lol Well the problem with fruit is they are either small or HUGE!!! very little inbetween fruit sizes lol So that's why they switch to veggie's lol!!!

I agree the only LARGE onions are the sweet vidalia the regular ones are tiny!! lol

yes, vidalia onions are yellow. and the picture on the ticker is of a vidalia onion. to be the right measurement though you need to find one about the size of your hand stretched out. I hate sweet potatoes, so I am going to find a similar fruit and we will call it that instead, deal? Plus, sweet potatoes I see in the store are huge looking not 6-7.5 inches.
 
I do exactly the same.....but it's still making me laugh how obsessed with fruit and veg we have all become!!!!! Hehe xxx
 
Is anyone else having a diffilcult time movig around in bed already, if that makes any sense? I rest on my back when watching TV before bed, and last night I rolled onto my side to go to sleep with my body pillow, and I swear it was the most difficult task... I have to move slowly cuz of wretched RLP on my left side, but by the time I got comfy on my left side, I was huffing and puffing like I had done 50 push-ups... it's too early for this!!!!
