Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

Most probably you are suffering from urinary tract infection(UTI).UTI is not good for pregnancy.
UTI is indicated by presence of excess pus cells and occasional RBC in urine.RBC in urine may be due to UTI.
You need few more investigations like routine hemogram,renal function test,Urine culture and sensitivity and Ultrasound of abdomen. Further investigations can be done if needed.
At present you need proper antibiotics after culture and sensitivity report.
You should drink lot of water.

Hope i have answered your query.
Get well soon.

Take Care
