Hey!
I'm fairly new here and LOVE this site and what everyone brings to it. You all have been a huge help thus far. Today, (I'm in my 6th week) I went to pee and suddenly had this really bad burning sensation. Is this normal or shall I say, common? I have my first dr.'s appt. tomorrow but figured I would get some feedback to ease my mind a little. If it's a UTI, should I just drink cranberry juice?
Re: UTI, possibly?
Burning is definitely a symptom of a UTI. Just ask for a urine test.
I was having terrible back aches with minor burning a week or so ago and ended up having a UTI. I get them fairly often and my Dr. said I am even more prone to getting them now that I'm pregnant.
Get a urine test at your doctor. Pregnancy makes you more likely to develop complications from a UTI, so if you do have one you should be treated with antibiotics. Good luck!
Thanks Ladies!
I am having minor lower backaches too. I went to the Dr. this morning and they took a urine sample, so we'll see what happens.
