Some antibiotics are safe in pregnancy. I had signs of infection in my urine but like you had no symptoms at all. Never had a uti in my life. It was picked up at my 12w scan appt. I wasn't prescribed anything just told to see gp straight away if I developed symptoms. I think you did right by not taking them! Xx

I've personally not had a UTI before but I was prescribed Amoxicillin during my 1st pregnancy as I had a cyst on my labia area of lady bits.

As the amoxicillin was prescribed by my G.P he let me know that this particular antibiotic medication is common and very safe for pregnant women to take.

Most abx are safe in pregnancy. Codeine has only recently been taken off the list for use in pregnancy and breastfeeding so your gp isn't that bad. I got prescribed codeine due to severe back pain and took it as I'm allergic to the alternatives x

My first pregnancy was one long UTI. I was prescribed antibiotics so many times. My lo is fine and healthy. It's up to you whether you take the tablets, doc can only advise you. Good luck.
