Default Re: UTI when pregnant

Oh, that cotrimoxazole is a scary antibiotic. Whether having a UTI or not, still best to consult your OB for any weird stuff you feel when pregnant. Taking a med based on your general thinking that it's safe is very dangerous...

Default Baking soda and water

Mix one teaspoon of baking soda with around 7 to 8 oz of water. Better if it tastes yucky coz it means that it will be effective in increasing the PH levels of the acidic urine while having a UTI. Yucky tasting but definitely cheaper and safe!

I'll surely keep this in mind. I opt gross tasting natural remedies over meds that are considered "safe" to be taken while pregnant. Better safe than sorry.

@ Adalira- It's indeed yucky tasting. But you'll get a good night's sleep knowing that it's all safe.
