Having small amounts of protein in your urine is common in pregnancy. It can happen for a number of reasons. It probably just means that your kidneys are working harder now that you're pregnant. It could also mean that your body is fighting a minor infection. Your midwife may send a sample of your urine to the hospital to check if you have a urinary tract infection (UTI). If you have a UTI, your doctor will prescribe an antibiotic that is safe to take in pregnancy.

My friend had high levels of protein in her urine. She had to do a 24 pee test, the doctors told her she got the protein from eating to many bananas and the high levels of potassium are what did it for her. You may just have to much of that, but I would follow up with your doc!

Protein Excess protein in your urine can be a sign of a urinary tract infection (UTI), kidney damage, or certain other disorders. Later in your pregnancy, it can also be a sign of preeclampsia if it's accompanied by high blood pressure.

Hello! Anyone else get protein in their urine? I'm 6 weeks and 5 days and I'm hoping it's nothing serious although my doctor called me back to her office to discuss it. Any support would be great! My blood pressure was normal and no UTI symptoms, I'm hoping it's just my kidneys working hard due to pregnancy.

It's like that for everyone they haven't even made sure my breast milk is coming in? I'm being seen up here at Pendleton. They have so many women they see they don't have time to test urine I'm guessing.

I would get a pee test done for a UTI, cloudy urine is often caused by white old cells in the urine because of an infection. My clinic has a walk-in lab just for yeast infection and UTI testing. I wouldn't wait until your next doctor visit or it could turn into a kidney infection.

Has anyone taking the 24 hour urine test because they found protein in your urine? If so what was the results? My blood pressure has never been high or anything so I don't think it is pre eclampsia and it has me worried.

I don't think so.....i think if you have bacteria in your urine it could mean UTI.

saying that could I possibly have prostatitis? The colour of urine may also suggest some sort of infection (although a UTI as been ruled out).

These past couple days my urine has been normal colored, [[cuz usually I'm dehydrated so it's a dark yellow]] but my urine has been cloudy?? I'm not sure what this means, but I'm going for my gluecose screaning next friday to make sure I don't have gestational diabetes. They found a small amount of protein in my urine at my last doc's apt but the doc says that it could very well be just from being dehydrated cuz my pee was VERY dark that day.

Last time I went to midwife 9th jan I had protein in urine sample they sent it of and I had a uti.

I believe they did not perform cultured urine test but just the one that the dip the stick in the urine sample and yes they said signs of infection and also protein has shown. Tomorrow is the last day for my antibiotics medication and right now there is no painful urination (or way slightly only at the beginning). So until when should I wait for before making next move?

I am almost 38 weeks. My urine has been good until now where there showed a trace of protein in my urine. My doctor hasn't called me to tell me anything, I found out by seeing the results online. I'm guessing they are not worried and will just speak to me at my next week's appointment. I have also lost 6 pounds since last week. What is going on!

I check my urine at home with Chem Strips to check for protein. About a month ago I noticed nitrates were testing positive on the strips (Only +first morning urine), I had no symptoms of a UTI and I did nothing. Then a few days ago my urine appeared green and was testing for blood, leukocytes, protein (I always have this), and still the nitrates(Now positive at any time of day tested). I then began having urgency issues as well as right side flank pain. I went to the Dr.

Infection, protein, drugs, bacteria ect.

I also have foamy urine, frequent urination, dribbling, split stream and had cloudy urine for a few days but that has cleared up. I bought a UTI test strip and it came back negative but decided to see a doctor who also said there is no UTI. I am awaiting results of my blood test and culture but freaked out by my foamy urine. I have had prostititis in the past which resulted in erection problems.
