I am about 22 weeks pregnant and for the past couple of weeks I have had some dull pain in my right side around my kidney area. It always hurts, hurts worst at night, but I haven't had any other severe reoccurring symptoms. I have been drinking water and clear fluids to help flush out a possible kidney stone but still nothing. The other night I was feverish and had chills but it went away after I broke my fever. I have been taking tylonel for the pain but I really don't like taking medication while I'm pregnant even though tylonel is approved. I would rather just know what it is that is causing the pain. I went to the ER also about 4 nights ago and they did urine and blood tests that came out normal to show no infections for UTIs or anything so I was sent home, but I'm wondering if I should go back? I'm thinking I have detected an early kidney infection and I should go to the doctor to get it treated but I want to make sure I'm just not having normal pregnancy back pain. PLEASE HELP!!! Its 4am and I haven't slept through the night in days!!! Oh I also read that nocturia is a symptom and that I have had but I figured thats because I can't sleep because of the pain and I wake up.

Same thing happened to me and now I'm hurting real bad in my right side but the test in Labor and Delivery came up normal. Nurse said come back if still hurting could be kidney infection.
