I have had thrush a couple of times during my first/second trimester. You are fine to use thrush cream and a pessary just not the oral tablet. Although every time I went to the chemist they wouldn’t let me buy it but the gp always prescribed me treatment.
It won’t harm your baby at all don’t panic, it’s very common x

I used Caneston Combi. It has external cream and pessary. I bought in Tesco. Then I panicked and phoned Doctors to check! I was told it was safe enough to use but better not to use plastic applicator if possible.

Yep midwife said fine to use the pessary but insert with finger instead of applicator

I had it very early on about 5 weeks, I rang my doctors and they prescribed me cream to use. Cleared up in about a week!

I saw a very slight flicker at 6+1 ( the date they measured me) 5 days behind what I calculated from my last period! It was a internal scan and he looked nothing like a baby, we called him our little duck until the next scan at 13 weeks!

Thrush!
