sorry if this is too much information but for the past 5 weeks i thought i have had reccurring thrush and have been treating with canestan but was at docs today and she reckons that i might be allergic to soap or washing powder and thats why im irritable down there.
has anyone else had the same problem?

Not same no, but have found that I am now allergic to plasters and chicken and mushroom pot noodles now that I'm pregnant. With plasters my skin turns purply and blotchy and hurts/itches. With the pot noodle, my tongue swelled up and stung and a few blisters!

oh my goodness confused im sure it nearly scared the life out of you after eating the pot noodle. I am shocked at just how much pregnancy changes ya. This is my 3rd pregnancy and I have never had this problem.

I got hay fever with a vengeance when pregnant, not a hint of it now!

i got really sensitive skin in my last pregnancy, stopped as soon as ds2 was born. Plasters from the blkood tests gave me big red sores, skin was very itchy, I had to wear long sleeved cotton tops to avoid jumpers irritating it. Injections and blood tsts hurt like hell when normally I hardly feel needles.

Yep I am all of a sudden allergic to dogs - have had dogs all my life and never had any problems until now!

I became allergic to plasters too & it has made me lactose intolerant, hence the v prolonged morning sickness. Hayfever disappeared though Hmm
