I'm actually finishing up my dose of antibiotics for UTI. We all worry about taking meds but honestly research the risks of leaving the infection untreated and you will feel less guilty for taking the meds. Plus if you're out of your first trimester I wouldn't worry as much even though i think you're safe no matter how far along you are

I had a uti around 14 weeks. My doctor gave me an antibiotic to take twice a day for three days and then the uti was gone. I would listen to your doctor and take the pills. They won't give you anything that isn't safe for you to take and not taking them would be worse for both you and the baby.
