Sounds like pin worms.
They won't infect your baby while in the womb.
However you need to talk to your doc about this because they tend to stick around unless you use medication

Okay thank you both. I have read I must wash all clothes and bedsheets... I really don't like taking medication when pregnant. But maybe if I get prescribed I'll have to. I also have a kidney infection and am taking tablets for that- could it be a side affect?? I have realised the worm came from the back. I just don't understand how I got them. I am very hygenic. Can they come with pregnancy?
