I'm in my second trimester and i keep getting that burning feeling again, had one uti already last month. So scared of it coming back during pregnancy. What did you ladies do to keep it away? any tips welcome.
My amma always said stay clean and drink plenty of water, and she was right. But pregnancy makes us more prone to infection so I also did the urine test my doctor asked at every visit. Better to catch it early.
Water water water yaar. Dont hold your pee, go whenever u feel like, wipe front to back always, and pee after intercourse. These small habits saved me from uti in both pregnancies.
Keep yourself hydrated and clean, that is the main thing. Coconut water and plain water help flush everything out. But if there is burning or fever dont try ghar ke nuskhe, go straight to doctor, infection in pregnancy is not to be managed at home.
When ur working its easy to keep delaying bathroom breaks, dont do that. I kept a big water bottle on my desk and made myself finish it. Cotton undies and not staying in sweaty clothes too long also helped me.
I got a uti in my 2nd trimester and ignored it thinking its normal, turned out to be more serious. Pls dont take it lightly in pregnancy, drink lots of water and if u feel any burning or urgency tell your gynac right away.
