it was actually half way smart. a uti can cause contractions if it gets super bad; it happened to me. usually docs tell you to take the antibiotics until the results come back if they do a culture, then they call & change them or say stop when results come back. if your urine shows even the slightest bit of bad bacteria they want it out, especially while pregnant.

Wow that's awful. Esp since they gave you a prescription without any test results.
