Been having burning and that urgent feeling to go again and again, doc confirmed its a UTI. Im 20 weeks. Getting treated but I keep getting it back. Any tips to prevent it from coming again? so irritating yaar.
It's so normal to worry about these things during pregnancy, especially infections. The best ways to prevent a UTI are to drink lots of water and cranberry juice (unsweetened, if you can handle it). Also, always pee after intimacy. But please, if you even suspect you have a UTI, call your doctor right away. Don't let the anxiety stop you from getting checked, it's important for you and baby.
Sweetie, UTIs are quite common in pregnancy, so it's good you're asking. The most important things are staying super hydrated, drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Also, make sure to empty your bladder completely every time you go. Good hygiene is also key, always wipe from front to back. If you feel any symptoms, please connect with your gynac promptly.
Urine infection, ugh, that's the last thing you need when you're already waddling around! Best thing is to drink SO much water, like you're a camel preparing for a desert trip. And pee frequently, even if it feels like you just went. Also, proper hygiene after using the washroom is key. But seriously, if you *think* you have one, call your doc immediately, dont try home remedies. I'm too tired for that!
I'm in my second trimester and constantly paranoid about getting a UTI because I heard they can be common. I'm trying to drink so much water and cranberry juice. Does anyone else get worried about this? What else really worked for you to avoid it? I just want to keep everything safe for the baby.
Oh god, with twins, I felt like I was constantly at risk! The simplest way is to drink water like it's going out of style – seriously, flood your system. And don't hold your pee, ever, for even a minute. Also, wipe front to back always. If you feel any burning or discomfort, don't wait, tell your gynac asap. UTI during pregnancy is no joke and needs quick attention.
