Ever since a childhood UTI, I just rinse my nethers (which autocorrect turned into "mergers"). And seconding the Diflucan rec. the angels sang when I first took that.
Liese, I hope your time off gets better, and so does the Biscuit.
msbelle, it's better than a snuggle because it goes with me, and since my house isn't insulated and I only have one space heater, I don't care about the fashion non-statement I'm making.

Actually, a really good way to decrease/stop burning that occurs with peeing (regardless of the cause) is to somehow pee in water (like a sitz bath) or pour water over the general area while peeing (possibly via a squeezy bottle or something). It's very awkward and messy, but reduces the burning a LOT.
I doubt it would be something Matilda could do, unless she used a sitz bath of some sort and would be willing to pee in it.
The Beastie Boys and Guns & Roses were inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame. I feel...very old.

You are. But I'm even older because Matilda's friend Isabella asked her if I was her babysitter because I have white hair. So, I'm a freakin' nonagerian.
I'm old. I remember when this happened:
Who Knew You Need Mud Flaps On The Moon?
This was the last Apollo mission to the moon. In '72.
Aw, poor Matilda. I had a spate of UTIs/YIs a few years back, so I started taking cranberry pills and a probiotic regularly, and haven't had a UTI since, and only a couple of relatively mild YIs. Can't say for sure that there's a connection, of course, but anecdata and all that. I hope she can take some kind of pill for the YI soon -- those have been super helpful to me.
So, I told my mom last night that I wanted to wait until June for a post-baby/meet-the-baby party, and she took it very well, much better than I'd anticipated. Thank you all for helping me sort out what to say! I feel very relieved.
I have no advice - but may Matilda feel better soon
I did not know not-cotton-panties were an evil thing. Thank dog I've never had issues. I really like my fancy panties.
Okay, that's it for the work day. Damn, that could count as 8 hours' worth.

It's an airflow thing. Much like those long cotton dresses.
Sit with your legs open. Solves a myriad of problems.
