Anybody had Kidney Stones during pregnancy?

Morning!
Just wondering if anybody has developed kidney stones during pregnancy and can explain if their symptoms were similar?
I am 33 weeks pregnant - I have been suffering with bladder pain when I wee for probably 6 weeks now. I thought it was baby resting on my bladder so didn't think too much of it! Until my last midwife appointment two weeks ago when there was definitely protein and leukocytes present so GP put me on antibiotics. Finished course and the pain is still there, if not worse! Went to triage on Saturday (for reduced movements) and they didn't seem concerned as urine sample was clear - however definitely feel it getting worse!
Symptoms: pain when needing to wee and for a substantial time after, needing to wee ALL the time and then even if I have drank loads of fluid I only wee tiny amounts! I have no signs of any fever.
Somebody has mentioned kidney stones to me hence the question! Definitely calling GP today so don't know whether to suggest this!

Have you had any pain in your back around where your kidneys are ? X

@lucyrp not really which has baffled me most, even when dr said I had a UTI!
I get UTIs ever few years and this feels different!

@SK2970 oh that's strange! Sorry I have no advice but I have gallstones (previously diagnosed) haven't had gall bladder removed and absolutely sh*tting myself about them flaring up during pregnancy or after birth😭x

@SK2970 not during pregnancy but I have had kidney stones. Symptoms were: HORRENDOUS pain in my back (so bad all I could do was lay down). Projectile vomiting and when my urine was tested it had blood in it (although it was not visible when looking at it). No pain in bladder or when going for a wee though.

@IndigoNC thank you for sharing that put my mind at ease a bit as I don't have half of those symptoms! 😊 going to drs shortly so hope I get some answers!
