Blimey your drs is on the ball. Mine just about opens the receptionist desk for 8am. Hope you get it cleared up soon. I hear they are very unpleasant.

So annoying I took a sample in a red topped bottle I found at home but they couldn't use it as has crystals to keep it fresh haha! Who knew!! Just had to sit on loo for the last 15mins trying to squeeze a drop out for a fresh sample!

Yay for gender scans! I dont have my next scan booked yet. Im guessing it will be early to middle February though. I did have a gender blood test and am waiting for results, but I just read some really bad reviews of the company I used so kinda regret spending the money now.

I'll be having my 20 week scan on February 22nd and it just can't come fast enough! We'll be hopefully finding out the gender then as well. DH and DD would prefer another girl so I'm rooting for a boy to balance things out.

I still will have my anatomy scan at 20 weeks but who am i kidding i couldn't wait that long! Plus this gender test only costs 65!
Oh well i hope this place doesn't waste your money

Luckily I don't have a uti, she said it is probably my growing uterus causing me the issues! Phew!!

Listened to the heartbeat for the first time on my Doppler last night! Yay!!!

Glad you don't have a UTI Babylove! I however, do. The OBs office called me to prescribe me antibiotics and I have an extremely hard time swallowing pills due to a gag reflex. I have no idea how I'm gonna be able to take a pill 4x a day for 10 days.

Aye....

DandJ, I had a UTI while pregnant with DS and they put me on antibiotics 4x a day for 10 days too. It was brutal. Every pill is so hard to swallow and yet they just expect you'll be able to take 40 of them. My guess is they put you on cephalexin?

Ah sorry to hear this DandJ.....really hope it clears up soon!

I sometimes cut my tablets in halves or quarters to make it easier, not much fun doing that 4 times a day though

That sounds about right. Are they really big? To put in perspective, I had to chop my 50mg Clomid pills in half to be able to swallow them with applesauce.

I feel like UTIs go away on their own, or am I wrong?

Babylove, Oh yeah... I'll be chopping those up into tiny pieces and putting them in applesauce

 

[ehjmorris]

Found out my date for 20 week scan!! 9th feb except ill actually be 19w3d im not complaining

As far as I know, they don't. The big risk with UTIs is spreading to the kidneys, and I can confirm firsthand that this is a VERY real possibility.

I once felt a UTI coming on but didn't have enough money for my copay + prescription at the time, so I tried to treat it naturally using cranberry juice, teas, and garlic. Within a couple of days, I was balled up on my couch with a 104+ fever shivering and crying, with the worst back pain I've ever had in my life. I had no idea what was going on. A friend drove me to the ER, I was in a daze. My UTI had spread to my kidneys and gone septic. I was put on strong antibiotics and painkillers in the hospital and luckily my kidneys recovered with no lasting damage.

For this reason, I personally head straight in to the doctors office if I feel a UTI coming on

 

[DandJ]

Oh wow, that's frightening! Glad everything was ok I personally didn't know I had one, there was no pain at all - just went in for a routine checkup and they make me do a urine for each appointment and came back I had a UTI.

I received my capsules of 500mg Ampicillan and I've been pouring the powder into applesauce so it's not too bad.

That's a great idea, that should really help. So sorry to hear you were surprised by the UTI but so glad you didn't have the pain. It can be horrible :/

Glad you've got it sorted. I've once had a uti I didnt know about whilst on holiday in Cuba and it spread to my kidneys. Most painful 2 days of my life waiting for a doctor so I feel for you! X
