Probiotics are safe during pregnancy. I had bv and took antibiotics. Then a week later I got a yeast infection (from those antibiotics). I started taking probiotics and everything seems fine and I haven't had any other problems. Probiotics will not stop the antibiotics from working.

The only reason I ask is cause my physician said no and my mid wife said yes. I know it's a silly question. Just wasn't to some more opinions.... plus if I take the probiotics will it like prevent my antibiotics from doing their job???
