This helped me out alot I Am always getting them it's hard for me to drink cranberry juice due to my acid reflux problems but I always drink water  , I also was having protein issues at the beginning of my pregnancy, I'm 23 weeks 3 days now..  I also had protein issues with my first pregnancy but I was 8 months, doc said it had something to do with my kidneys not filtering right.

Make sure you let your doctor know bc I had a bladder infection which led to a kidney infection n its the worse pain ever now instead of me taking antibiotics to fix it I have to stay on them until I deliver my baby boy which is taking pills everyday...they told me aside from my medication to be drinking lots n lots of water cranberry juice can help also but I sa let your doctor know asap that way it can get fixed before it gets worse

Cranberry juice and water are what the drs tell you to drink, cranberry is good for urinary/kidney health whether you have an infection or not. But you do need to go to the dr asap and get some antibiotics.

Cranberry juice can help the urge to pee but doesn't necessarily take the infection away , I've used it for years when I didn't have time to go to the doctors I'd just drink that and went in whenever
