Has anyone had BV while pregnant

Sorry this is so TMI but I think I have BV and just wanted to see if anyone else had struggled with it? I’m 18 weeks and currently aboard on holiday for a week, if leaving it until I’m home too much of a risk?

Try get the gels to treat it or mix apple cider vinegar and water to treat

Yes it’s pretty common in pregnancy

@Em thank you! I will see if I can grab some from the pharmacy

You welcome yeh was the bane of my life during pregnancy but best to treat right away xxxx

@Em interested in how this is done?

@Stace apple cider vinegar?

@Stace yes I’d like to know too! How diluted and how to apply it or can you just bathe in it? X

1 part acv approx to 3 parts water make sure it’s not too strong rinse downstairs with it xx

I had it a lot with my first and used the gels. I had a tiny bit of pink discharge too which did go on its own but if it lasts too long I’d recommend getting some anti biotics from the doctors ☺️

Ive read some reviews on how well vaginal flora probiotics are but then the minute they’re not taken its back green 🤷🏻‍♀️

Please do not use the metronidazole tablets or gel as i had a pregnancy loss. When we checked when baby stopped growing. It was the week I used the gel. Best of luck to you

@Temi so sorry you went through that Temi! 🎈✨… did you try other things instead? ♥️

@Temi wow so sorry to hear that. I used the gel a lot throughout and was fine because I was told that having bv in pregnancy is also dangerous. Everyone Is different I guess

I used the gel anyways but was not counselled properly on the risk. So the gel did clear my BV but it meant I had no baby sadly x @Stace @Em

@TemiOh wow I’m sorry for your loss I had the gel a couple of times when I was pregnant with my first 😳 never got told there was any risks! So far I haven’t had it with this pregnancy but will be mindful if I do get it 🩷
