Long story short.

I am 34 + 2 days over the last 6 weeks i have been admitted into hospital 5 times to treat uti's. I am treated with buscapan, codine and ivf antibiotics, i am then released with a 5 day course of AB. Within 24hrs of each course ending i am back in agony at the delivery suite.

The last time they released me with a low dose (1 tablet a day). A week later i have symptoms again, cloudy urine, bladder pain.

Has anyone had any experience of this? What will they do next?

I'm so sorry to hear this and also sorry to say I've no advice at all. I suffered from UTIs in my first and second trimester but was allergic to nitrofuratoin so couldn't take it at a lol dose.

I'm 34+3 days and thank God I've not had a UTI for months. I make sure to drink 2 litres of water per day and not wear any tight clothing. I'm sure it's all things you've heard before and sorry I can't be any more help. I really hope you feel better.
