I am now on my second infection of BV. I am scared that I will have my baby early. Can anyone relate to me? I am worried that my baby will come to early and will have complications. What can I do to prevent or stop baby from coming to early?

Im 18 weeks pregnant, my doctor diognosed me with b.v, he gave me cream to insert inside myself, i used the cream once and it gave me an alergic reaction on the outside, the doctor gave me cream because he said i ant take the tablets during pregnancy, if i was to ask for the tablets would he give them to me?

ive just been diagnosed. am 7ish weeks pregnant. dont really have any symptoms. my prev pregnancy was perfect–well if i had it that dr didnt find it. im not for taking any med during pregnancy and that scares me. also so does all the complications that can occur. ive never had anything like this not even a yeast infection. i dont do any of the risk factors, i hardly have sex and is always same person for years. how frustrating!

so, I have been diagnosed with BV this pregnancy and have had 2 preterm babies before this one. Could BV be the reason? And why did my doctor NEVER test me for it even after my first preterm baby born at 31 weeks. I was diagnosed with BV this time at about 9 weeks. I was treated with Metronidazole and it went away then came back. They gave me metronidazole again. It went away and now is back again. What are other ways of treating this? I am now 31 weeks and have been to Labor and Delivery over 5 times to stop contractions. I am on a daily dose of percardia (sp?) Could BV really be responsible for all my preterm labor?

If you mean risks from taking Metronidazole, then probably not. Since you are not in your first trimester, it should be safe to take this antibiotic. Even if you were less than 14 weeks pregnant, there isn’t conclusive evidence that Metronidazole causes any harm. Hope that helps.
