See details: Have you had the urine cultured? If not, that will permit the doctor to select the most appropriate antibiotic. Untreated utis can cause more serious issues over time.

Yes: Continued urinary tract symptoms need to be evaluated, and if no urine cultures have been performed to discover a specific germ, then a correct investigation has not been undertaken. There are other causes of urinary urgency & incontinence than simply "having kids, it is normal".
