Bladder infection...anyone else?

Hello all you lovely mamas to be

You need to see your doctor ASAP if you think you have a bladder infection.

I did and she prescribed me Amoxicillin/Clavulin

She's says it's safe but I'm still worried

Oh gotcha. I would trust your doctor... and if left untreated, it could quickly escalate to a kidney infection, which is way more risky for you and baby than the meds. Be sure to take all of it, even if you start to feel better, to make sure it gets completely cleared up! And you can try drinking more water and cranberry juice and/or cranberry supplements to hopefully avoid getting one again. I haven't had one while pregnant but I used to get them all the time so I know they suck!

Thanks for replying!! I drink tons of water. Not a fan of cranberry juice but I was taking the cran pills but then I got discouraged from taking them from what I read on line. Some comments were positive and some were negative. The net can be horrible! Anyways I'm starting the penicillin today.
