Antibiotics while TTC (1WW)

I have been sick as a dog last 4 days with sore throat, caughing, headaches, my entire body aching, and now am getting shooting pain in my ears (ear infection, I am sure).

Does anyone know if OK to take antibiotics while TTC?

Thank you!

I would ask your doctor to be on the safe side.


A friend of mine who was very adamant about not having a 2nd child, got pregnant. So of course after the congratulations, I said, "What happened?" and her reply was "antibiotics".

I would take to your doctor about that.

Thank you Ladies,


My DH looked up the side effects of Z-Pac yesterday and it turns out it's OK to take them, so I took my first doze last night.

When I was in my 2 WW I got a bladder infection (probably from DTD so much around O time) and I went to the doctor. I told the doc we were TTC and he said it was good I told him because some meds aren't safe to take during pregnancy. He prescribed me an antibiotic that is safe to take during pregnancy (just in case) and the bladder infection was cured! I don't think that will effect whether or not I conceived or not. My doc didn't think so. I am feeling pg right now and having all sorts of symptoms but AF isn't due until Sunday so I guess we'll see!

Good luck to you!
