im 30wks pregnant and cannot stop weeing i think from wiping myself so often ive made the outside of my bits sore and itchy. Inside it isnt too bad although it does feel a bit dry and red. When i wee i do notice a bit of a smell too and have a watery discharge tmi yuk.....ive had a achy belly ache all night not sure if this is connected though.Can i see a nurse practitioner about this or will it have to be a doctor?

If it has a smell along with it I would see the doctor. I have always had a milky discharge but no itching or smell. Sometimes it tries to turn into thrush but I stop it.

Don't have long hot or warm baths as it creates a damp warm envirionment for the thrush to breed. This is a bigggy...if I get the feeling of thrush I have showers for a week.

Try to TMI expose your 'lady parts' to the air like after a shower or dont wear underwear round the house. Wear cotton underwear and dont wear tights. Eat probiotic yoghurt its a cure all. Cut down on bread and yeast (marmite)

I would go to docs but taking anti biotics actually gives you thrush, so beware what they give you.

hope you get better soon
