This is just a FYI.. Do u drink ginger ale. That helps . Also see if u can take Zofran . I use to take that in my in my 1st trimester. But I DNT know how it will affect yr meds now. I hv never had a kidney infection. But I wish u luck. Drink plenty of cranberry juice...

If you were perscribed it and you're not allergic to it, then your ok. Its if the baby stops moving then you have problems.

Hi, I took amoxicillin just before Christmas as I had a bad ear infection. I double checked it was ok to take with my doctor. It is. If there's sugar in yours tht could be what sets the baby off. As for feeling sick, I don't know? But yes it is safe to take.
