Kidney Infection When Pregnant Mumsnet. They usually come on very suddenly i don t usually feel ill first and it feels like someone is grabbing one kidney with their fist and squeezing it and then letting go. I was so ill.
Dont worry though this was only because of the pain and as the infection had gone into my blood. Knew i wasn t going to get better. Ds was born at 40wks plus one day natrual birth in a pool completely perfect and he weighed 10lb 3oz.
I m prone to cystitis so know the uti symptoms well.
When i was pregnant i had a kidney infection that i didn t really notice kept weeing and had a pain in my lower back v similar to being pregnant. I was kept in for a couple of days and given strong antibiotics on a drip. Can you have a kidney infection without having really bad symptoms. I was eight months pregnant with kidney infection stayed overnight at worthing hospital on a drip.
