Sorry you've got a UTI Cazzy - some doctors can be so bleeding annoying when it comes to UTIs - I used to get them every 3-6 months, I knew the symptoms within about an hour of it coming on, and yet they still insisted on me giving them a sample to be sent away.
Thankfully my new GP has a system for UTIs where you just ring them up and they sort the prescription out for you there and then, but thats only if you have a history of UTIs. My only recommendation is gallons and gallons of cranberry juice and/or water. Just make sure you drink loads of fluids, although if you're just drinking water make sure you take in some salts as well, you can do this just by eating anything really, salt and vinegar crisps always did it for me
Thankfully (crosses fingers) I've only put on about 3/4 of a stone so far since I got pregnant, although I've put on nearly a stone and a half from my lowest weight. If I can keep my total weight gain to under 2 stone I'll be happy, then at least a fair whack of it is going to be baby Having said that, all this talk of chocolate is NOT good for my figure!
On the bilingual front, although DH doesn't speak any Welsh, I'm hoping to speak a little Welsh to LO when he comes along, so at least he can speak a few words to cheer the grandparents up Welsh was my first language until I was about 4 years old (although you'd never have thought it as I have a broad Yorkshire accent now!) and when I speak to young children, especially my niece and nephew, I get the overwhelming urge to speak Welsh - hopefully this will also give me a chance to retain some of my language
