Confused?

Question

Hi mama’s, I am 30 weeks pregnant and am having all symptoms of a UTI. I went in and got checked today but, its came back negative. The symptoms are definitely mild but should I be worried? Does anyone else have this?

Answer

I thought the same thing a few weeks ago! My bladder hurt and felt like I couldn’t empty it and I had some blood in my urine.  But came back negative for any kind of infection. My midwife said she could feel the baby was super low and causing a lot of pressure on my bladder. She said it can happen in 2nd+ pregnancies because your body isn’t holding everything together as strong as the first time.

Answer

How long has it been going on for? I’ve been through it as well where I’ve tested negative and all the signs are there. As soon as I notice it, I drink tons of water and the symptoms are gone the next day.

Answer

I have this all the time but I have a condition called Interstitial Cystitis aka painful bladder syndrome. It got a so much worse in pregnancy. I always tell people to look into that though cuz it is more common than people know.
