Wow, the thread is moving fast.....just 1 whole day didn't log in and get to see so many posts!
Jennifer, yes, last time when I noticed V area is itchy, I saw a gynae and was detected with mild infection, took a course of antibotic.
not sure who mentioned about seeing gynae is about 5 minutes. In fact, in my first pregnancy, every time when I see my gynae, is also quite chop chop, say hi, ask any problem or discomfort, scan, advise our on bb development, check the heartbeat and ask questions if any. I always summarised a few questions that I have in mind and will ask during the consultation. A gynae said this to me "if your consultation is short and sweet and everything is well, all is well, this is what you love to hear, baby well, mummy well'. So I think its ok if the consultation is short but most importantly baby is growing well in the womb and mummy get to clear any doubts or questions.
