    I hear yah - oh i'm sick of running to the toilet to either pee or spew!!!!
    I also suffer from a lot of bladder infections and actually had to see a kidney specialist during and after my last preg - so i suggest you mention it to your Dr and they should look into it further for you. The cranberry juice is good - or cranberry tablets - which are more concentrated...and definately keep up frequent water intake. Wishing you a H&H preg

    Oh, i know exactly how you feel I have had bouts of UTI's over the past few years and I doubt there is anything worse!

    Usually tho, I only get them after um um ... a big session of !!

    But recently since I have been preganant, I have been feeling the syptoms on and off, but not as bad as a full blown UTI - just the burning after I go and feeling as though I haven't properly emptied my bladder (sorry TMI). Ive tried drinking heaps of water but this seems to make it worse :eek:

    Ahhh the joys of preganancy!

    Jupiter, I feel for you! I have the pea sized bladder too, but no UTIs THANK GOD! I've only had one before and I never want one again! OW! The cranberry stuff is meant to be great, the only other suggestion I can make is to take a filled script for ABs overseas with you, so you don't get stuck. I would definitely be doing this! Oh and make sure you take a letter with you from your doc stating what the drugs are etc etc, JIC you get asked.
