Antibiotic use early pregnancy

Hi guys,

I’m 6 weeks pregnant and I’m on antibiotics for both a UTI & a tooth infection. Taking both macrobid & amoxicillin. My last pregnancy was smooth sailing, took zero meds. I’m so nervous about what kind of damage these meds are doing at such early stage in pregnancy. I completely understand this is a much safer alternative than an infection getting out of control. Has anyone taken these meds in pregnancy before?

Thanks x

Have taken amoxicillin and it was perfectly fine. You wouldn't be prescribed it if it wasn't necessary.
