yeast infections...tmi sorry

Okay so this is my first pregnancy and I'm not sure if this is common or not but...have any of you moms been having problems with yeast infections? It seems like I have one every couple of weeks and its getting really annoying..I'm a germaphobe so I am a very clean person so it doesn't really make sense as to why I'm getting them =/  but its ruining my sex life with my fiance..any suggestions?

If your too clean when your washing your vag in the shower you could be washing away the good bacteria that keeps yeast from taking over.

Same situation , you must have alot of bacteria also you and your husband could be passing it back & forth . Try not to eat too much sugar add yogurt with live cultures to your diet and let your privates air out here and there because yeast likes moisture .
