35 weeks, 1 day!
Sorry about my grumpy post yesterday! I've been so tired lately and letting things get to me. I am in pain from the carpal tunnel but I really shouldn't let that get me so down!
I got a call from my family physician's nurse this morning that my urine sample from last week tested positive for a UTI. She called in a prescription for Macrobid since I'm allergic to penicillin and the only other drug that works for my infection is amoxicillin which is part of the penicillin family. I picked up the prescription on my way home from dropping my husband off at work and as soon as I got home there was a message on my answering machine from the pharmacist telling me that I shouldn't take the Macrobid since I'm so close to being full term and I've been having a lot of contractions lately and it can hurt the baby somehow.
So... the pharmacist called my doctor who in turned called me and then she called the pharmacist back, who then called me again. Goodness! Then my doctor called me to tell me she was calling my OB to discuss my contractions and the UTI. Now I just have to wait for a phone call from someone! I am grateful to my pharmacist for taking the time to do extra research on the medicine and to call me as fast as she did.
I've gotta go pick up my son and take him to a few places. I love seeing my son :)
I'll post more about the medicine thing as soon as I hear more!
