Cranberry: Get a cranberry supplement at your local health food store. Pure cranberry juice will also help though not as good as caps - not ocean spray as it is mostly water.

See your doctor: If you have symptoms that you think are consistent with a urinary tract infection-see your doctor to have a urinalysis/reflex culture performed to either confirm or rule out infection. You can still breast feed if given a prescription for an antibiotic for a uti. "phenazopyridine hydrochloride", is the #1 otc ingredient specifically for urinary discomfort.
