  • Is My Baby's Fetal Heartrate Too High?

    QUESTION

    Hello! At my first ultrasound, the baby's heart rate was 154 BPM and all looked well. At ten weeks 2 days, a friend let me borrow her home doppler, which shows baby's heart rate. It started out at 192, was 188 the next day, and has remained in the 180's since.

  • Is Macrobid Safe During Pregnancy?

    QUESTION

    The doctor wants me to to take Macrobid for a urinary tract infection but she wants me to start before the results even come back and that just stupid to me.

    She said if I have one that I don't treat immediately it's more dangerous for the baby than antibiotics but I really don't want to take them especially since my only symptom is white blood cells in the urine.
