Newbie intro + question!

Annsor

Hello ladies! Just a quick intro, I recently found out we are expecting our second child! After 10 years of infertility, it was a BIG shock to get a bfp. I had pretty much given up on being able to carry another child, and had come to terms with only having one. Things just work out sometimes I guess!

Having not been pregnant for 12 years I have a ton of questions and so far you all seem extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I'm excited to join this community and look forward to getting to know you all and learn from your experiences.

That being said, I'm going to jump in with my first question... I am one of those super lucky gals that have been cursed with chronic BV. I had seen an alternative medicine/holistic practitioner last year who recommended a vaginal wash of 1cup water & 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide. That worked like a charm in the past for me to rapidly clear up the symptoms, however, I no longer feel comfortable using that while pregnant. Do any of you ladies who suffer from BV have any suggestions on how to keep the symptoms at bay without having to resort to using a prescription antibiotic or gel? Thanks in advance for the help!
