Seriously?

So I'm pretty sure I have a UT.I. I called the dr's office this morning and they sent me for a urinalysis, but the results won't be back until tomorrow morning. Last night I was seriously up at least 10 times in the first hour I went to bed, each time peeing like a tablespoon, and leaving the bathroom feeling like I still had to go. I was up until midnight and finally took a shower to try to relax because I was so annoyed, uncomfortable, and worked up. I finally fell asleep after the shower and slept straight until 4:30am. Prior, around 10:30 I drank about 4 cups of water in hopes that maybe I just needed more fluids and things would be fine, but upon waking up this morning I still have the urge to go all the time and not much is coming out.

My mom took Little man home with her so that we could get things straightened out and work on getting prepared for the new baby. I assured Little man that if the baby decided to come when he was at grandma and grandpa's that they would bring him to the hospital right away. He will get more attention since my brother is there and I'll be able to get things done around here and figure out this UT.I crap. Also, R will have time to start looking for jobs in the evening when he gets home and not feel like he's depriving Little man of attention. I haven't been feeling well either so it will give me some time to rest.

You poor thing - UTIs really suck. In the past I've bought that AZO stuff from the drug stores and it at least helps with the urgency feeling. Hope it goes away quickly for you!
