Unfortunately when people get pregnant, they also develop lots of things too. ETC. my sister in law developed diabetes while pregnant and was cured after the baby was born. You probably are getting it because you are pregnant. Talk to your GYN doctor and start antibiotics again until it goes away.

Ever thought that maybe UTI is an underlying symptom to something a little stiffer than just UTI?



What I mean to say is maybe you have gestational diabetes and maybe before you were pregnant you were experiencing the symptoms of a pre diabetic condition which would trigger the increased risk of UTI.



Diabetics have a common problem with UTI. Could be worth having your blood sugar checked regularly.



Have your Gynecologist inform you of what it means to have gestational diabetes and you may have your answer.



Have your blood drawn and get these tests:



Gad 65 Auto Antibody



HbA1C



C-Peptide



Insulin *tests how much insulin is present in the body*



Vitamin D deficiency? New standard is 80 make sure your doctor knows this. Vit D helps maintain healthy body function.



That is all I have now.

yet while a bladder an infection travels to your kidneys you will understand all approximately it ...... previously traveling the antibiotics path each and every time why no longer try looking out if nutrition intolerances are contributing to your wellness dramas ..... unaddessed lactose intolerance will create uti like warning signs ...... it is only your physique's reaction to what it perceives to be distant places organisms...... nutrition intolerances and allergies can produce section outcomes and warning signs which could and could mimic virtually each and each widely used dis ease widely used to guy ....... canola oil and advertisement olive oil produce warning signs in me that mimic a uti... in straightforward terms to thoroughly deplete 24 hours when I've ingested it ..... ingredients containing lactose do the comparable difficulty ...... and eating too lots coffee ..... somewhat organic and organic filtered organic coffee.... yet it is me.... bypass on a nutrition hunt. extra value-effective, extra effective for you and much less painfull.....discover the reason..... warning signs will in many circumstances get up interior a pair of hours if it is nutrition or drink.. be brave. bless u x

I have the same problem. I solved it by using condoms when having sex (I know your pregnant and don't need to but believe me this helps) and constantly drinking water. You can also try drinking cranberry juice or asking your doctor if you can take cranberry supplements but I found that just by constantly keeping myself hydrated it pretty much solves the problem.
