I am 16 weeks pregnant. my doctor has prescribed me augmentin for uti for 10 days. is it safe to take? what else can i do to prevent recurrent uti?

Augmentin: Augmentin is a penicillin and all penicillins are safe in pregnancy. Unfortunately, UTI's are common in pregnancy but make sure you are well hydrated and empty your bladder frequently.

My doc presribed me amox-clav for a UTI but i'm pretty sure I have a yeast infection. No urge to urinate, or crazy pain. Just lots of vaginal itching, and slight burn when urinating. What should I do & does this sound like a UTI or a yeast infection?
