Urinary infection :-(

Had a call from my midwife today to let me know the results of my urine test and they show I have a urinary tract infection (UTI). I've had no symptoms but she said I need some antibiotics. Has this happened to anyone else, should I be worried?

This happened to me although I wasn't pregnant at the time. I had no symptoms other than pain when I sat down. No burning frequency or odor. I was just fine. Uti's are common (especially in women) and nothing to worry about as long as you get it treated. Just take the antibiotics as prescribed.

I get UTI's every month! Some women get it more then others. Lots of things can cause it such as Sex, not drinking enough water,  too much sugar, hot weather, satin underware. It's no biggy. Just uncomfortable. So no stress :)

I had one too and didn't know. I've had a lot so I know what they feel like and thought the nurse was crazy for saying I had one since I had no symptoms. I got a RX for antibiotics but was hesitant to take them since I had no symptoms. I got an over the counter uti test and it came back that I had one... Weird! Lol. So I took the antibiotics for a week and took another test and it came back that my uti is gone..  Hope that helps and good luck :)
