- Many pregnant women will experience a certain amount of vaginal discharge. However, this discharge may not just appear white and thick; it may also be tinted yellow or even green.
- Most women who suffer from a standard yeast infection will generally not experience any sort of odor connected to this discharge. Pregnant women, on the other hand, may actually notice a scent that smells almost like bread or yeast.
- Many pregnant women who are suffering from a yeast infection may also experience a certain amount of irritation in and around the vagina. This may manifest as a simple itch all the way up to a dull sort of pain.
- Another symptom that a yeast infection during pregnancy has in common with a standard yeast infection involves a burning sensation, usually upon urination or sexual intercourse.
- Many women will also suffer from a slight rash, mostly due to the irritation the vagina experiences during the infection. It will typically appear as redness on the skin in and around the vagina.
