antibiotics

Avatar f tn m pretty sure of that, because if it risks the baby in anyways, I am sure its illegal. I am not 100%, but I am sure they cant do that. I hate taking medications, I suffer from serious migrains, and HAVE to take medication... Docs wouldnt perscribe it if it was dangerous.

Avatar f tn I can't say for sure because there are different types of antibiotics and different dosages, etc. But I can tell you that in my last pregnancy I needed to take antibiotics for a tooth problem and it didn't seem to effect that pregnancy. My son just turned 1 yr and seems prefect to me. ;-) I was really worried about it too but I didn't really have a choice. I needed the meds. Thankfully everything turned out well.

8075190 tn?1401035475 I'm also GBS + and all that really means is that I will be given IV antibiotics during Labour tomatoes sure my baby doesn't become infected. Roughly half of all women have GBS and don't know because it doesn't cause any problems for us. It isn't picked up until pregnancy because there is never a reason to test for it until then. Please have the antibiotics as there is a chance your baby could contact GBS in the birth canal and in some rare cases babies have died as a result.
Avatar f tn I would just call the office to be safe and tell them you are pregnant and want to know if the antibiotic prescribed for you is safe during pregnancy. I expect that it is as most are but it would be best to run it by your doctor You can go online and look up the drug's package insert and labeling pertaining to pregnancy as well. good luck and I hope you feel better.
Avatar f tn I took keflex and it made me break out in hives due to my pregnancy some antibiotics are safe during pregnancy that's one of them
Avatar f tn I am hoping that I do not have to take them at all during this pregnancy as with my 8 year old I had to take them in 3rd trimester due to kidney infection and just recently my daughter had a water infection, two different antibiotics did not work for her, luckily the third cleared it up, I am worried my daughter has become immune to certain antibiotics due to me taking them in my pregnancy, it might not be that but it did put me off but it f you need them then there is nothing you can do
939489 tn?1260887943 I think antibiotics are ok to take. I have been having UTI's off and on since I got pregnant (now 11w3d) and I have been on antiobiotics. I'm sure they won't harm your baby!!
1840402 tn?1355432565 A UTI is nothing to play around with. Left untreated it can travel to the kidneys and cause a kidney infection that can be dangerous to both you and your child. Amoxicillin is one of the most widely prescribed antibiotics during pregnancy and has not been shown to cause any harm to a human fetus. Take the medication to clear up the infection, the last thing you want is for it to get worse.
