Sorry for another post guys but wanted to ask a question about UTI. Hopefully it’s not to much tmi but I’m 12 weeks and been having a discharge from 9 weeks. Doctor done a swab and give me a pessary for thrush. After my midwife app at 12 weeks they checked my urine and found some protein and sugar but didn’t seem worried and said they would sent it off for culture (normal procedure app) I got a letter this morning saying mixed flora was found so make an app with my GP. I won’t get an app till Monday at the earliest
Google says most likely a UTI
Anyone have this? I’m worried it’s dangerous

Congratulations on pregnancy! Is this your first?
I wouldn't worry to much, UTI's are fairly common in pregnancy and are usually treated with a course of antibiotics. UTI's can be more serious if left untreated but it sounds like they've caught it early (that's why they test your water at every midwife appointment).
Also discharge is another common symptom of pregnancy, I wouldn't worry unless it's a strange colour.
I'm not a medical expert, Im just speaking from my own experience, so make sure you discuss all this with your doctor when you can get an appointment. Just don't panic in the mean time.

I’ve had a few so far and I’m 29 weeks, my last was agony to the point where I had a raging temp, threw up due to the pain and ended up in maternity triage as I was doubled over.
A good course of anti biotics and painkillers sorted me right out. You’ll be fine
