I haven't had any during my pregnancy but I've had them before. I found pineapple really helps me.

I had a uti and a kidney stone at the same time. I drink a lot of water and still got if. Just drink as much water as you can. Cranberry juice if you can

Cranberry juice and lots of water! That can turn to a kidney infection so keep an eye out for abdominal pains and fever. If that occurs, go to the hospital. I had a kidney infection, they're not to mess around with.

I agree with above cran-grape is a great option if you don't like cranberry juice. I had to buy the ocean spray brand, great value gave me horrible heartburn

I take a daily cranberry pill from walmart to help prevent them. Ask your OB first if you decide to go this route. I had UTI's all the time before I was pregnant and heard they only became worse with pregnancy so I talked to my OB and added cranberry to my suppliments. That and lots of fluids.

Avoid all sugary beverages!! Only water and natural cranberry juice(no the cocktail, that has too much sugar). Add lemon to your water.

There is also all natural cranberry extract that you can buy in a pill form. Has worked for me in the past. Clear it with your doctor first. I also happen to love cran-apple and cran-grape juice. If you don't like plain cranberry, which I don't. There are tons of delicious combinations

I don't get UTI, but I do get a lot of yeast infections and it's horrible. I would put the cream on, but then I would have to pee so I would then wipe off the cream and have to put it back on. I'm just saying you are not alone!

Yeah I have had a uti that just comes back all the time. I'm 23 weeks and I Hate How it feels. I sometimes sit in the toilet for like an hour just trying to pee it out and drinking lots of water. It Feels so uncomfortable that it makes you mad! Just drink a lot of water so you continue to pee all h bacteria out and just keep a mindset of "everything is temporary" eventually it'll go away and you'll have a positive mind and it'll kind of help.
