UTI and conceiving

Hello Ladies,

 It has been a while since I have been on here. My DH thought I was bumping too much but mainly my retail job has stressed me out so much that I have switched gears and am looking to start an in home daycare.

I am basically in the start of my 2ww now and just have a feeling it will happen this cycle. Well early this morning I woke up with the urge to pee.  I never do that in the middle of the night.  The urge has only gotten more.  My question is have any of you had a UTI right around the time you conceived?

 My first pregnancy I had gotten my first UTI.  It was a few days after we conceived but at that point I didn't know I was pregnant and they put me on antibiotics.  I am just hoping this isn't the case again.  If I do have a uti and am pregnant that it will turn out fine.

I really know nothing about UTIs, i am sorry!!

I just wanted to write that i'm really thinking hard about starting an in home daycare too. I'm a teacher, have my masters degree and am permanently certified as a teacher.. (a lot of teachers today need to have so many hours of professional development and need to re-apply every few years, but not me).

But i've been searching for a job for the past 7 years!! The schools around me are just not hiring and I really don't want to relocate since i love it here so much. I would love to start an in home day care for teachers kids... so if there's a snow day, i have a day off too. Every teacher holiday, is a holiday for me too!

But i don't even know where to begin, and there really is no place in my house where we could have them.

Im 10dpo today- BFN, but i did get a UTI right after i ovulated...im on antibiotics now and told my dr that i was trying to conceive. She said its fine and alot of pregnant women get them so they get the same antibiotics. I figured- i have no choice but take them cause there is no way im living with a UTI. Just let your dr know!

When I've had a UTI around ovulation, I tend to ovulate late.  If you're charting and watching for CM, then you should be able to pick up if you're ovulating late. 

I did get pregnant around the same time as I had a UTI.  Unfortunately, my pregnancy ended badly.  I also had what I thought were UTIs throughout the pregnancy, though they were unlike any UTI I'd ever had (and I repeatedly told my urologist that).  My urologist thought so too.  She misdiagnosed me.  I was having bladder spasms, which mimic some of the symptoms (urgency, burning when urinating, pain) of a UTI.  So, I got antibiotics that I didn't need.  Joy. 

Was your FMU a different color than usual?  Do you have blood in your urine?  Both of those are positive signs of an actual infection.  If you think you have a UTI, you should go and get it checked out by your doctor so you can get treated properly.  Also, my OB/GYN does not approve of taking Bactrim in the first trimester as it's a Class C drug...this is exactly what my urologist prescribed (though she knew I was trying and thought I might be pregnant) and it took me days to get her to change it (yes I need to fire her).  So, check any medicine you get prescribed with your OB/GYN to make sure it's compatible with pregnancy.
