UTI during pregnancy can have adverse effects on the baby. That's y uti even without symptoms during pregnancy should be treated.
As for the reason for recurrent UTI u need to get evaluated so that recurrence can be prevented.
Also, if would be better if u renin in prophylactic antibiotics for the duration of your pregnancy.
