kidney stones, natural remedies?

Hello, im 35 and 17 weeks pregnant. I spent the last two nights in the hospital bc I'm passing a kidney stone and it had set up infection. After givin iv fluids and antibiotics I am now home again. They're wanting to see if I can pass the stone on my own. I have put on 7 pounds of fluid. Im a little worried about the meds they have me to flush it out. Im curious if there are any known natural remedies that are safe to flush out a stone while pregnant. This is very painful and I'm hoping will be over soon.
