can he get it too

Ok Ive been having a lot of discharge lately. And my doctor keeps saying its a yeast infection or either a bacterial infection. And not I have an uti and it was so painful I though I was gonna die, but my doctor kept tellin me it was growing pains. Then I went to the er and one of my old doctors told me it was an uti and prescribed me some anti biotics. The question is is all this bacteria comin from me being pregnant or me have sex with my child's father. And if its jus comin from me can he be infected to and jus keeps giving it back to me cause I know he Neva gets checked. And I stay complaining to my obgyn about my discharge or bacteria infection as she would call it. I dnt have an std. Thank God, but now since I've been pregnant i have a lot of discharge and always scratching below to theory point I leave marks

Whoops sorry about the misinformation.  I was always told just to abstain during a yeast infection just to let it heal.  Lol sorry!

He cannot get your uti but he can get the yeast infection. Your doc should be able to prescribe something for him as well as for you. Get it all cleared up before having sex again so your not just passing it back and forth.

if it's just a uti then he can neither give, or get, it from you.  Same with a yeast infection, and I'm like 75% sure with the bacterial vaginal infection.
When you become pregnant we are luckily (haha) more prone to utis, yeast infections, ect, and so on.  Just the fun stuff we get to go through.  I would put off sex until all is healed though.
