Anyone else?

Has anyone else had this experience? All the way through my pregnancy with my daughter my urine samples would show signs of infection but when they were sent off they would come back completely normal. I’m 20 weeks pregnant now and my urine sample has come back with signs of infection again and is getting sent off so hoping I don’t have an infection.

Mine was the same, the problem I think is the way you take samples.
In my home country we are told very rigorously how to prepare urine for samples (first thing in the morning, wask yourself with warm, not soapy water, wash your hands, only take urine from mid stream), in here they often ask you to wee into the tube right before your appoinment and that's that, and that's why it becomes contaminated. Every time I too urine 'my way' it was clear, every time I took it right before the appointment it came as something was there that needed it being sent off.
