Dehydration :(

[fran1903]

I am now 9 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child and a few days ago i ended up in AnE as i nearly collapsed. They told me that i was really dehydrated and i ended up on cyclazine to help with my sickness and allow me to keep fluids down.
At the moment i feel like i have a UTI but all the tests say theres no infection present, is this just to do with the dehydration?
I am slightly worried as i have now had 4 days to try and get rehydrated and i am really struggling and if i dont get sorted soon they have said i will be admitted to the maternity ward, i cannot afford for that to happen as my hubby is away at the moment and we are 300 miles away from and family to help with my son.
I guess what im trying to ask in a very complicated way is, has anyone else had UTI symptoms because of dehydration and how did you overcome it? (i have issues drinking lots)

Drink whatever sounds good. Vitamin Water, Gatorade, caffeine free Sprite or root beer, ice chips, milk, juice, lemonade, kool-aid, even something like popsicles or Slurpees. I had severe dehydration from hyperemesis gravidarum and the only thing that helped me was Vitamin Water. Regular water made me vomit almost immediately. Good luck.

When I was pregnant my doc told me UTIs don't have the usual symptoms of burning/pain with urination during pregnancy. Are these the symptoms you're experiencing? He told me UTIs present as frequent urination, possibly back pain in the kidney area and usually just to one side and protein in your urine during pregnancy. If you're concerned you may have a UTI please please say something to the staff at the hospital. Best of luck

Hugs and love

I have the same feeling as though I have a uti. I have to drink at least 2 litres of water a day to relieve it. My urine tests fine too. Just one oftthose things I guess.
