I was prescribed this for a UTI at my first appt. And my OB told me to take it for the duration of my pregnancy. So I have.
Now I have a 2% baby with IUGR. Is it safe to take cephalexin this long?

I’ve taken it my whole pregnancy for my rare skin condition. I was on stronger stuff but they put me on this one when I decided to start trying for a baby.

How long have you been on it for? Are you due this month also? Any side effects from it?

I got on it probably 1 month before actually getting pregnant so about 10 months now. I haven’t had any side effects at all. Due 9/16. I’ll be staying on it while breastfeeding too.

I feel a lot better knowing this, thank you!
