I have had recurrent cystitis since I was a child, and it has only got worse with pregnancy. I am 11+3 and already have had 3 bouts of cystitis lasting about 3 days each (flushed out with massive amounts of water, I have become an expert at getting rid).
Problem is, it is getting me really down constantly battling these symptoms. Not wanting to touch antibiotics as I would be on them a lot and that's not great in pregnancy. I've tried drinking a glass of sugar free cranbery juice every morning (sugar makes it so much worse for me) I have even tried cranberry tablets daily but nothing kees it at bay. I can't have the sachets I normally drink to ease symptoms as they are unsuitable for pregnant women.
HELP!! it's really getting me down :(
