Get treatment: For the sake of your and your baby's health, you should be under the care of a doctor, preferably an obstetrician. She/He should address your UTI, if you have one and advise you about using heating pad. Take pre-natal vitamins and see your doctor at the earliest. Wish you good health and a healthy baby!
