Hi. I currently am 23 weeks along in my 4th pregnancy. I have gotten a UTI with all my pregnancies, and quite honestly, I feel it is because of not drinking enough water. I also agree with what the other ladies have said about urinating after sexual intercourse. Drinking cranberry juice helps, too. It has acid that kills the bacteria. I have to continue to drink lots of water, though, even after it's all cleared up to keep it from coming. Drinking water is a good way to keep our bodies flushed of unwanted bacteria!! Hope this helps!!

ive had a UTI before, as well as feelings of a UTI coming along....mine have come from having rough sex...after u have sex, pee after that and wipe cleanly...if u dont, and u feel a burning sensation next time you pee, drink water or cranberry juice a TON..so that u have to goto the bathroom a lot and itll pass through...dont worry! if it gets serious goto a dr an you will do a pee test and if its bad, theyll give u some pills!!

I have had several UTIs and get them often when I haven't peed after sex (especially oral).
