Strep throat!!

So I posted last week I was sick- sore throat, fever, aches etc.

I went to a local walk in clinic and they said its viral. They took a throat culture but I swore the girl missed my throat!!!
Fever broke Friday but my throat was terrible. Went to my primary dr today and I have strep!!!

I'm so upset - I didn't want to take antibiotics but she said no choice bc it's bad. I'm only 4 weeks 3 days! She put me on zpak and my OB said its fine but of course I'm freaking out.

I took a zpac when pregnant with DD. It was fine. Better to get better than to be sick and have added stress on your body.

There are many safe antibiotics to take while pregnant. I was pregnant last year and sick three times and needed to on antibiotics.

I was on Z PAC twice with my last pregnancy, strep both times. Your baby will be fine, it's totally safe. Feel better. Chat Icon
