Acidophilus While Pregnant?

Hi! I've battled with yeast infections for most of my life and have found that acidophilus has really cured that for me. Now that I am pregnant with my second child (22 weeks) I am getting them all the time again. I stopped taking acidophilus once I knew I was pregnant because I wasn't sure if it was safe. I recently asked my OBGYN if I could get back on it and it said it was fine. I looked on the Mayco clinic online to see what they say and this is what I found..."There is not enough scientific study available to establish safety...

Baby with Thrush

Hello, My son is three and a half months old and we have been dealing with small amounts of thrush in his mouth since his 2 month check up. He was put on nystatin for ten days and then I refilled that to no avail.. Then I asked to be treated also even though I have no symptoms. So, I also used the nystatin but it was a cream for my breasts and nipples.. It was hard though because my son nurses so often and I had to wipe it off so frequently that I don't know how much it was effective. Anyway, he was given another dose of ten days of...

Positive Group B Strep

Hello! I am 37 weeks pregnant with my fourth baby. My OB informed me yesterday that my Group B Strep screen came back positive. He explained that I would be on antibiotics during labor and delivery. He also said that this was not a concern for me but for my baby girl. He acted like it was no big deal. And I have never dealt with this before. I came home and jumped on my computer and read everything I possibly could regarding GBS. I learned that its a vaginal bacteria...that sometime has little or no symptoms. Some of the symptoms listed I...

The Worst Year of My Life...

Except for the birth of my newest addition 2008 has been the worst year of my life...I feel as if my life is falling apart... My family and I have had a really rotten year...very challenging economic times from filing bankruptcy, DH business losing contract after contract because of the economy (he is in construction), then DH having challenges finding a job and because of this I had to go back to work working overnight shifts on the weekends. We had to begin living on a very strict budget - every penny we make is accounted for. We...
