Protein in urine

I have protine in my wee all the time and nothing ever comes back from testing it xx

I did was told to drink more as it was probably the start of a UTI

@Siobhan it’s not always a sign of it it could mean a high concentrate wee (I’ve always had protein in my wee from about 28 weeks and never had a uti) x

Yeh I didn’t say it was always but I was just told at my last appointment it was likely the start of a UTI. I don’t think I’d know if I had a UTI or not because I’m constantly weeing anyways 😅

Yeah I had this once along with a bit of blood and they sent it away and it was nothing. The second time it happened it was blood only and again it came back as nothing. It’s likely to be either a wee infection that can be easily treated or nothing, my midwife said it can just be contamination of the sample x

No but how's your BP?

My blood pressure is fine

Yep, my urine always shows 2+ protein since about 28 weeks. And on the dip stick the midwife says it’s “off the scale” cos the colour goes so dark 🤷‍♀️ I’ve had multiple samples sent to labs, no infection. My bloods have been fine but got little feedback. My blood pressure is border line. Back tomorrow at maternity for a 35 weeks appt. So shall see what tomorrow brings.

I had some but also had high ketone levels I was just told to eat and drink more xx
