    Could be thrush which can mimic UTI signs. Cut out as much sugar and wheat as you can, drink lots of water and boost your immune system with great foods like garlic, onion, green leafy vegies, fresh juices and some GOOD probiotics. They aren't all the same and different probiotics have different functions. Ginger is soothing to the stomach and coconut oil has antifungal properties too, its great to replace cooking oils with it. It is common to get thrush and UTIs in pregnancy due to changes.

    Oh I'm guilty I've not peeing straight after dtd probably 80% of the time since being pregnant, that's something I really must change. Any other time I race to the loo!

    Ill invest in cranberry juice, never had it before, but if it helps then I'm all for it.

    BellyBelly - What do you suggest as a good probiotic? I love garlic and that seems to go in every meal I cook, well when it can lol

    With DS, I had thrush probably 7 of the 9 months, it was horrid! Ill get my GP to check if it could be that, don't have anybody the usual symptoms but it can't hurt to ask JIC
