Anyone have a uti in late pregnancy? I

You should get ahold of your dr or his
assistant or the one on call or get to the
er room and get this situation checked out
as they say, if in doubt, get it checked
out especially so the situation does not
get worse and it can take a load off of
you.
The best to you and yours!
Keep us posted.
Agreed. Utis if left untreated will most
likely spread to the kidneys...And trust
me you do not want a kidney infection. If
you do have a uti, you need antibiotics
a.S.A.P! In the meantime, drink lots of
cranberry juice or even orange juice.

I Just Had to Go to Labor And Delivery For That Problem Posted: 04-18-06 16:31pm
On easter sunday, all day I was haveing
contractions...Not braxton hix either..
Anyways I called my Dr. And her midwife
called me back and asked me if I was
drinking fluids and all that good stuff, I
said yea. She then asked me if I have
been peeing alot, I said yea come ta think
of it I have been going alittle more than
usual...I had no pain or discomfort when I
went to the bathroom either....So of
course I never thought about it. The
midwife told me ta go to l&d to be
checked...Just incase it was "the real
thing", cause i'm 31.3 weeks pregnant. So
me and my feonce went and they monitered
everything and gave me a shot ta stop the
contractions, checked my urine and they
said I had a slight uti.The rn there said
its a good thing they caught it cause it
can lead to premature labor. The doctor
prescribed me macrobid and i've been do'n
good since.....Good luck to you..

Ive had two utis during my pregnancy and I
think I may have it back again since ive
been getting pains, but ill keep an eye on
it and go to the doctors with a urine
sample, maybe thatll keep my mind at rest.
I think you should do the same and be
seen by your doctor or midwife, good luck
