Hi all! New member, second pregnancy, 8 weeks. Can I speak freely and whinge about how horrible pregnancy is?
yes!

I’m so grateful to be back here after two miscarriages and fertility issues but I do spend these days thinking I feel like someone dug me up 😂

It’s a uti, got my prescription 😐 I’ve been sat on the toilet for four hours because it’s the only thing making it bearable. Currently running a hot bath to see if that will help soothe the pain

drink as many fluids as you can to help flush it out and if it hurts to wee, sometimes doing it in a lukewarm bath and sitting there can help. Just be careful not to use any products that might kick it back off again

What @Elisha97 said, get in a warm (not hot, cuz baby!) bath with no products in and just wee in there. Take a big bottle of water and a book/your phone/kindle/distraction of choice and stay there for a couple hours while you drink the water and try to flush it though. Shower off after obviously but most of what you’ll be weeing will just be water anyway if you’re chugging it. It really helps

Bless you. Also get some cranberry juice, try to find the one with the highest cranberry percentage and drink plenty of that which should help to flush it out. Hope you feel better soon x

Thanks guys ❤❤ This thread makes me feel so much better. Been feeling so upset since being in pain because today was supposed to be reassuring and lovely seeing baby moving. We were going to tell our parents (boyfriend didn’t want to tell anyone until we knew all was ok) but I feel so bad I’m not telling my mum and he’s gone to tell his on his own because this is the only day she’s available until 2 weeks away. Makes me feel better reading every bodies posts ❤

its just one of the absolutely rit parts of pregnancy as they’re unfortunately so common to get when you’re pregnant but you should feel better after a couple of days of antibiotics. Plan a nice way of announcing for when you’re feeling better ❤ x

Same but it does help so much. I usually take a 2L bottle of water with me and don’t get out until I’ve drank the lot 😂 not so easy to drink that much in pregnancy but if you can it flushes it through really quickly!

Sorry it’s put a dampener on your day 😔 I’m sure your mum will still be over the moon when you tell her tomorrow 😊❤

I’ve not had a UTI in pregnancy but used to get them loads. Drinking warm water helped me.

Go for it! It’s hard! I’ve had it relatively easy but still find it difficult and tbh a bit lonely.

im so sorry that happened to you. This pregnancy is ducked. Nausea, spewing, headaches, exhaustion. I literally can’t cope and I’m only 8 weeks . I must have forgotten how bad it was with my first one

hahaha! I done the same this morning getting ready. I’m always rushing about so barely even look at my naked bump but wow I’m so round!! I’m always amazed I’ve got a little person in there!

Honestly, yet another moan but because I went to the hospital two weeks ago with pain in my stomach/back and straight away they said the cause was an UTI before the wee sample had even come back and put me on antibiotics. Turns out I didn’t even have one, and now have thrush as a result of pointlessly taking those antibiotics. Thank you very much 😑
