    1. Pregnancy is a predisposing factor for urinary tract infections as the growing fetus can put pressure on the bladder and urinary tract, trapping bacteria. 2. Bacteria from the gut contaminate the urinary bladder during pregnancy and colonize it, causing an inflammatory response and symptoms like fever and headache. 3. The bacteria then ascend from the bladder to the kidneys, colonizing and damaging the kidneys and potentially causing symptoms like back pain and frequent urination.
