Well i have been burning for about a week now, i woke up this morning and was in so much pain so i went to the ER.. have one, i am on amoxicillion, she said it wouldn't hurt the baby, but if i dont take them it will bring on labor. I am so freaked right now i cant even begin to explain, i dont even take advil for headaches cause i get so worried, not to mention a pregnancy forum im on a lady said her doc told her bladder infections can cause miscarriages.. IM SO freaked.. i dont even know what to do or say...

Whoa time out, lol

1. Take tylenol for pain every 8 hours, acetaminophen is the only thing safe for us
2. make sure to take all the amox, so that the infect wont occur again and become resistant the next time
3.Drink plenty of fluids WATER and cranberry juice
4. monitor your baby's movements. If it is drastically less, go to the ER
5.Though I am giving you advice (cause I have a LPN license and I'm a mom of 3 and a half babies) Sometimes, forums argent the place to go, lol

relax, calm down, you will be ok

Oh, no! I'm so sorry to hear that! I agree with Aprill's suggestions. I hope you get well soon.

MissMissy, the worst thing you can do is NOT treat your infection. The antibiotics are not going to harm your baby.

With Olivia (18 month old), the doctor overlooked a kidney infection even after I *repeatedly* told him that I had one and we ended up in an *early* emergency c-section because he did not want the infection to cross the blood barrier and harm the baby (possibly even killing her).

The good news is that someone listened to you and that you didn't wait too long and that you are on antibiotics. Take them faithfully and follow Aprill's advice.

Don't fret, it WILL be ok

Hugs,

Brandi

I hope everythings ok!
I agree with Beaglette and Aprill, even though I don't know anything about this subject, I know how bad bladder infections can get. Been there! and I would hate for it to turn into a kidney infection for you.......
SO feel better girlie

Calm down! It won't bring the baby that soon! For God, who told you that? If it was that serious, they would have admitted you. I'm a family physician and practice prenatal care and I do call my pregnant patients when I see abnormal urine results so I can treat them or I do treat quickly if they are in pain that suggests UTI, but it's not that bad. Don't worry. Just take the antibiotics and monitor baby movements and everything will be fine!

I am feeling much better today no burning when i pee. my little one is up and about in there.. only thign ih ave been having is some mild achiness kinda crampy if you will in my lower stomach to my back.. i am assuming its from the infection and will pass,that its normal?? before i got this i was having ligament pain and its probably mixing with the side effects of the bladder infection. But its going away as well.
