ladies!!! has anyone ever taken nitrofurantoin or macrobid to treat your uti???? I am very against medicine during…

I took microbid but I was told after 34-35 wks it wasn't safe, I even Google it, but thats my doctor saying every doctor is different

ya I read the same thing it said do not take between 38-40 weeks.... how far along were you when you took it? @blessedw7

I would have Utis frequently so prettiest much up until 34wks

I took it when I was 21 weeks everything went ok for me

pretty*

i was prescribed cephalexin. I'm against meds too, but a UTI is no joke. I didn't want it to get worst. the pain was unbearable ;/ I thought I was in labour which was the worst feeling ever since I'm only 33 weeks.

I'm fine now. baby js fine. we are all good. it's my firsy UTI in my pregnancy and I'm making sure it's the last

hhmmm ya I'm thinking everything will be ok I went in BC I was having mild cramping and back pain for 2 days so then they tested me for uti and I had a mild one the nurse said it wasn't too bad yet but if left untreated can become very bad...... I just got nervous when I read that it said do not take after 37 weeks but I'm 34 so.......

ya I got lucky I only had mild side effects

I was on macrobid for awhile then switched over to keflex for my entire pregnancy for reoccurring utis and baby is fine

I just got finished taking macrobid they had to put me on a anti nausea medicine because I would get really sick from taking it.

ya I just had a really bad throw up episode from it @disneybaby1011 so I might call them and tell them to give me something else

@britthardy, I had the same issue but for 3 days my Dr put me on diclegis and that helped tremendously!!
