This is my second time getting a uti since i got pregnant and im in my 5th month. Never used to get them before so easily. Why does pregnancy make this happen so much, anyone else kept getting it?
Honestly the long hours and not drinking enough water made mine worse at work. Keep a bottle on your desk and dont skip bathroom breaks na. Simple but it helps.
I had a UTI in my second trimester and it got bad fast, so please dont ignore burning or fever. The hormones and pressure on the bladder make it more common in pregnancy. Pls just call your gynac if it hurts to pee.
My doc explained that pregnancy hormones relax the urinary tract and the growing uterus presses on the bladder, so urine sits longer and bacteria grow. She said drink lots of water and dont hold pee. Thats why they check urine at every visit.
When you are nauseous you drink less water and that doesnt help either, mere saath bhi yahi hua. Try to sip slowly through the day. And if you feel burning tell your doc quickly.
