Unrelated: Vaginal yeast would not lead to white blood cells in the stool. It is not clear what stool testing was done. That is not a common test to have done in pregnancy unless certain gastrointestinal symptoms were present. Clarify with the ordering physician why the tests were done and what the next steps are in the plan of care.
