antibiotics at 15 weeks

Hi
I have a question regarding taking Amoxicillin and decreased movement (fluttering). I could feel my baby "swimming" when I put my hand on my bump for about 2-3 weeks before I took antibiotics but since then nothing. I'm worried the antibiotics might have affected the baby? Or am I just panicking?
And one more thing, last night I slept with my son, who's 4, as he wasn't feeling well and he kicked me with his heel in my lower stomach, where I think I could feel the baby being most of the time. Could it have harmed the baby?
Thanks for your replies

There is a high chance that you are just panicing. Feeling regular and consistent movement at 15 weeks is unusual, it's much more likely to be sporadic and very dependent on the position of the baby as to whether or not you feel anything at all. But if you are very worried about this then get in touch with your midwife as she should be able to have a listen with a doppler at this stage.

As for your DS kicking you, it's very unlikely, my DS (15 months0 keeps trying to use my ever expanding waistline as a trampoline and is yet to do any damage Smile

thanks, I know I am probably panicking and just have to stop myself from thinking too much and enjoy the pregnancy :)
