Potential TMI
So... since early in the second trimester I mentioned external itching to the midwife. She mentioned maybe external thrush but didn't seem worried.
Didn't seem quite like thrush as I've usually had it - no "thick cottage cheese" or anything.
I got a few different home tests for thrush and all came back negative. Didn't want to stick a pessary up there if not needed so just used creams like Vagisil (though it didn't do much).
About a month or two ago they said they'd found thrush in my urine sample.
Cool, we know it's thrush now so i can go ahead and get a pessary.
seemed to come back again, did another pessary.
Today the midwife asked if i'd heard from my doctor about e coli in last visit's urine sample.
I hadn't heard anything, but after that she didn't mention the word e coli again and just said potential urine infection. Apparently I should hear back on monday and if there's still a problem it might be antibiotics.

Then we did measurements.
(They originally said I was due end of November, but pushed back to 6th December at the first scan)
Baby's been measuring slightly big since the first measurement - but only slightly above the line.
Today suddenly she's jumped in size quite a bit, apparently.
So they're putting me in for an emergency scan and if I haven't had a phone call tomorrow saying when to come in, I need to call them to chase it up. But they're hoping it'd be as soon as friday.
Apparently she's not worried, but she didn't exactly seem not worried![Shocked :shock: :shock:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
Has anyone had anything similar or have any idea what I should be expecting?
I can't really express concerns to OH because he panics worse than I do![d'oh! #-o #-o](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eusa_doh.gif)
