    Thanks gals for the replies.

    Becmc, I hope you are feeling a lot better now, and that bubs is okay! Wishing you an uneventfull pregnancy, not long anymore!

    I am now taking a course of antibiotics and taking 2 cranberry tablets a day (max dose) And I will continue to do so for the rest of my pregnancy.
    I really thought the test would turn out negative, and at first it did, I was actually suprised that it came back positive the next morning.
    My only worry now is that I sometimes have an ache in my back at the location of my kidneys, so I hope they're okay! Will find out mid-next week, as the gp sent a urine sample to the hospital for more testing, because I am pregnant. So that this is just a minor UTI and the rest of the 9 months will be uneventfull. But yeah I will keep close track on my health as this almost went unnoticed!

    Thanks bbwish, I am fine now!!

    Just be careful about getting thrush too, pregnancy makes you more prone especially with the strong antibiotics they use for UTI's. My midwife suggested I take a course of probiotics after my antibiotics, which I did, and I think I had just started getting thrush and the probiotics seemed to get rid of it quickly.
