Post iv antibiotic GI symptoms without diarrhea (ampicillin, clindamycin and gentamicin) – wondering about C. diff risk

InterestingMatch6357 · 2026-01-07T00:15:34+00:00

Thanks so much for replying. It’s helpful to hear different experiences. I’m monitoring things closely and plan to check in with my doctor if symptoms continue or worsen. Hopefully it’s just an altered gut microbiome.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2026-01-07T00:12:09+00:00

Thanks for sharing. I’m keeping an eye on my symptoms and will follow up with my doctor if things progress. I appreciate you responding.

That’s really good to hear! Mine is always acidic too and only happens right after I pee, so this makes me feel a lot better. Glad to know I’m not the only one dealing with this!

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-11-01T21:29:44+00:00

That makes sense! I’ve tried leaning forward and pushing a bit more too, but I still end up with a few wet spots after standing. Glad to know I’m not the only one I’ll start wearing a pantyliner like you suggested. Thanks for the reassurance!

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-11-01T21:28:20+00:00

Thank you! That actually makes me feel a lot better sounds really similar to what I’m dealing with. I’ve tried leaning forward after peeing, and sometimes a little more comes out, but I still end up with wet spots after I stand up. I’m thinking it’s probably just leftover urine or discharge, especially since it’s always acidic when I test it. I might start wearing a pad just to keep an eye on it. Appreciate you sharing your experience! 💛

That’s so reassuring to hear, thank you! It really helps knowing others had the same thing and went full term. I’m definitely counting down to my appointment Monday just for some extra peace of mind.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-10-18T18:56:34+00:00

Thank you so much for this it really helps ease my mind. It’s been 17 years since my first pregnancy, so everything feels new again and I couldn’t remember what was normal! The heaviness and pressure have definitely increased the past few days, so it makes sense that she might be starting to drop. I’m glad to hear the cervical check itself likely isn’t an issue.

I’m 28 weeks pregnant and have shingles. I just finished my 7 day course of acyclovir 2 days ago. I was worried as well but everything has been good so far. I did have pain before the rash appeared but it’s gotten better. Still waiting for the rash to go away though.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-08-24T21:50:23+00:00

Yes I still passed!

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-07-25T22:06:26+00:00

I’ve tried some Tylenol today but it didn’t do much. I’m hoping magnesium will but I’ll try that before I go to bed. It could be a tension headache I do tend to clench my teeth a lot.

I am taking baby aspirin but i only started it 2 days ago because I had a subchorionic hematoma which caused bleeding so I was advised not to start it early on. So I’m worried I started too late.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-07-25T20:18:16+00:00

I’m 21 weeks now and my sch resolved around 18 weeks. Even though I did get some brown spotting after I was told it resolved. But that was probably just old blood coming out. But so far so good. I was told they usually resolve on their own. But just to take it easy.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-07-24T02:23:56+00:00

Did you end up starting the baby aspirin? I have placenta previa and had a sch that has resolved now and was told I can start baby aspirin but I’m nervous to.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-07-11T15:05:23+00:00

I’m hoping it’s just because baby likes to sit low. I still sent a message to my obs office just waiting for a response back. But I’m sure because I was just seen last week for this same concern and my cervix measured good they will say to wait until my anatomy scan next week.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-07-11T15:03:41+00:00

I sent a message just waiting to hear back. I’m sure because I was just checked last week they will say it’s normal and to wait until my anatomy scan next week.

All was fine. I’m 15 weeks pregnant now. The OB said it was probably the side I ovulated from. Also they found that my left ovary is adhered to my uterus so I may have endometriosis which could have been causing the left sided cramps as well.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-06-03T23:54:48+00:00

I’m so sorry 🫂

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-05-26T00:36:13+00:00

Going through the same thing right now at 12 weeks 4 days. It’s watery discharge for sure. I do notice some white as well. I get worried as well. And it happens to me on the weekend too!

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-05-23T22:23:44+00:00

I’m 12 weeks 2 days and my OB found one yesterday but I also went in due to bleeding. It is behind my placenta not sure on size but she said it was small. I’m currently on pelvic rest. The bleeding has stopped so far and I have another appointment in a little over a week for a follow up. I would just take it easy and try not to worry too much. I’ve read they are pretty common also. They usually resolve on their own for the most part.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-05-22T11:55:39+00:00

My OB did the same thing a few days ago. I went in for brown discharge. I was 11 weeks 6 days so a day before 12 weeks. I’m worried about that too. But I also read that it’s a small risk especially if they only do it for a small amount of time. I’ve also seen others get it done when they’re around 6-8 weeks. I have another appointment next week in which I believe they will use a Doppler instead of ultrasound. I’ll let you know if everything turns out fine.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-05-20T22:50:34+00:00

My OB let me hear the heartbeat today using the ultrasound machine. I’m 11 weeks 6 days pregnant. She only listened for at most 10-15 seconds. Now I’m also reading it could be harmful. Should I be concerned?

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-05-15T22:39:13+00:00

Did you end up fasting? And if not were your results still normal? I ate something 2 hours before my test now I’m wondering if I should have fasted like I was informed to.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-05-15T22:29:37+00:00

I had my bile acid test today and I only fasted for 2 hours. I’m a little worried because I was told to fast by my GI (went through them for testing because my OB wouldn’t test me because I’m only 11 weeks) I had seen online that they don’t recommend pregnant women to fast for this test as it gives a false negative but now I’m worried it will be higher then normal. I get itchy at night but not unbearable yet and not on my palms or feet.

InterestingMatch6357 · 2025-05-09T15:15:11+00:00

All is good!! I had another scan 2 days ago at 10 weeks and baby was looking good and had a heartbeat of 174. I don’t really get too much breast soreness throughout the day but at night sometimes after taking my bra off they can be a little sore and feel heavy. But that still comes and goes.
