I'm currently 24 weeks and am extremely fed up, I had reoccurring urine infections from October up til Christmas then had a really bad one and was in extreme pain between Christmas & New Year so was admitted to hospital & put on IV antibiotics & painkillers for 24 hours which seemed to do the trick. Unfortunately it came back the 2nd week of January & I was admitted again, this time things were a lot worse and the kidney infection turned to sepsis and on further investigation they found stones in both my kidneys with a blockage in the right. They had to operate to put stents in both my kidneys to unblock one & ensure the same thing didn't happen the other side.
Luckily baby doesn't appear to have been affected by any of this & is doing well and kicking away but the stents are causing me severe discomfort along with the constant need to wee which I've been told will only get worse as baby gets bigger.
I hate that I'm moaning all the time about it but I'm so miserable especially when I know I've still got 16 weeks to go. I can't plan anything as I don't want to be far from a loo as when I need to go I need to go straight away.
Has anyone had this happen to them & can offer any hope of improvement? This is my 2nd baby, I sailed through the first pregnancy and loved every minute but I feel like I'm wishing the weeks away with one and not enjoying it at all.
