Get treated: If you have a bladder infection then it is important that you get treated. Untreated bladder infections can spread to the kidney causing a dangerous infection in the mother. Antibiotics can be used to treated bladder infections

Yes.: The urinary infection you have can be dangerous if left untreated. Women who are pregnant who develop urinary tract infections are more likely to develop sepsis, a life-threatening condition. Please see your doctor right away to receive appropriate treatment.
