Abnormal Urine Examination In Pregnancy, Am I Suffering From UTI ?

Hi I am 9th month pregnant and on my recent urine examination I have 20-25 pus cells, some RBC s and epithelial cells in my routine urine. Is that mean that I am suffering from UTI ? Does it will affect my pregnancy or labor? Previously also i was under medication for UTI and also diagnosed with cervical erosion. Does this can affect my and my baby s health?
