Hi Devika
plenty of epithelial cells indicate passage of acidic urine. at present there is no urinary tract infection, in future you may be having chance of getting Urinary tract infection.
as you are in 8th month you dont take risk and go for URINE CULTURE and consult Physician for further management.
you take plenty of oral fluids.
take care & all the best.
