Would you go to the Dr.?

I had some pain/pressure this afternoon very low that felt like my bladder and it seemed to get worse after I peed. I called the nurse and she said it could be a bladder infection and I should maybe come in in the morning to get my urine tested. She said if it gets worse (blood in pee, kidney pain) I need to go to the ER! It has gotten better but still having a little pressure, but if the pain is gone by morning, should I still go? Aren't bladder infections common in pg? Anyone had this?

Re: Would you go to the Dr.?
Do not take UTI's lightly. Regardless of blood in your pee, the bacteria still has the potential of further traveling up the urethra and into the kidneys. This can result in scarring of the kidneys (which is irreversable) and preterm labor.
I had a UTI when I was 14 weeks along with R and was hospitalized for over a week. I would make an appointment for a UA soon

So I also have a weird feeling in my lower belly after I empty my bladder. I feel like my stomach is LESS supported than it was before. Is this the same kind of pressure and or pain that you are talking about OP? I don't have any other symptoms except this weird feeling (I guess it is kind of painful, but not too much) that happens after I am sitting for awhile and then walk around and after I empty my bladder.
I will call the nurse, but I just thought it was growing pains? (My belly really popped over the last week)
