I am 27 weeks, and the doctor prescribed me cephalexin and vitamin c due to some urine infections. I have started taking from yesterday and i didn't feel my baby movement 24 hours. Isn't something wrong with my baby?? I'm so worried that i couldn't concentrate on anything i do. I have done eating cold and hot things still no movement yet. Please help me. Should i need to see the doctor? ?? ๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ˜ข

Cephalexin is safe but if you don't have movements (could be a coincidence or related to urine infection) you should really get it checked out

Cephalexin isn't that much of a strong drug. I think you are good to take it. I know for a fact that some UTI's are cured with cephalexin. So it is safe for the doctors to prescribe them during pregnancies. However if you think there is something more serious... Why not pay your gynecologist or doctor a visit? Just to make sure dear. God bless you dear, take good care!

I am glad that this turned out fine dear. I would have been devastated had the opposite happened. Your baby will continue to be safe. The angel has a great mother who will always be protective! Keep up like this dear. I am sure that you will have a beautiful baby. Make sure to let me know when that happens. I would love to see him/her. I am glad to hear from you too dear. Sorry for the late reply. I have been busy lately. It won't happen again I promise. One last thing... Why so formal dear? Please write more freely, we are all friends here. Take care and god bless.
