I am 20 weeks pregnant and was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection, for which I was prescribed the antibiotic "Macrobid." I had never taken this medication before. I was given the medication twice a day for seven days. I finished the medication yesterday. I drank lots of fluids before, during, and after taking the medication. While the frequent urge to urinate subsided, I have been plagued with a few new symptoms, and I want to know if they could cause harm to my child.
I had dark urine before the Macrobid because of the UTI, but now it is even darker. It does not have a strong smell. Since it's only been one day since I finished the medication, I suppose it is possible that it still working it's way through my system, but I want to be sure.
I also noticed yesterday that I have odorless, thick yellow discharge coming from my vagina. Could this be a yeast infection caused by the antibiotic? I have had a yeast infection once before, and it was very uncomfortable and smelled very foul; this does not feel uncomfortable and there is no odor.
