I am 12 weeks and have just been told that I have an E. Coli urinary react infection. I have been started on cefadroxil. I am worried that the infection and/ or antibiotics will affect the baby. Anyone have any experience please? Thank you.

I had the same around 20 weeks pregnant and I've had 4 more since (I'm now 36 week) the antibiotics should clear it up pretty quick and they are forever testing your urine.. I wouldn't worry Grin
