Please try reposting this on the lung conditions thread. There’s people on there who have had Bronchiectasis all their life and had kids. Congratulations

I’m pregnant with bronchiectasis! My first pregnancy 5 years ago was great, my symptoms actually alleviated while pregnant and I only needed one basic course of amoxicillin half way through pregnancy.

Fast forward to this pregnancy. 5 years on, my bronchiectasis has worsened and I’m on a prophylactic antibiotic and I’m already on my first course of treatment antibiotics. It’s just amoxicillin and it’s not clearing it. I’ve upped my clearance but it’s proving tricky and I’m only 15 weeks so far. So who knows what’s to come xx
