Thrush in early pregnancy - treatment?

Anyone else had this? I've definitely got mild thrush. Very peed off! But, like all symptoms, I'm trying to take it as a positive sign! I read that is much more common in pregnancy due to the oestrogen.

It's so bloomin' hard to get to see a doctor when you work so I thought I'd ask whether anyone had a recommended treatment, seeing as I can't pop one of those marvellous Canesten bullets :)

  • Just use the cream? I'm sure that's fine.

  • Oral tablets are a no-no, pessaries and cream are fine. But don't tell the pharmacist you're pregnant or they won't sell you the pessaries but make you go to the doctor and get a prescription for exactly the same thing.
