what would IV tobramycin do in the first week or two of pregnancy?

So, ever since we started TTC and I started charting my temp, I've had this fear of getting admitted to the hospital for IVs during the very beginning of my luteal phase, when I wouldn't know whether or not I was pregnant. Well, GUESS WHAT! It might have just happened. I got admitted today after being sick for a few weeks and coughing up blood Sunday morning. I'm not actually sure whether or not I am for sure in my luteal phase or not, because I had 3 days of fever following the hemoptysis and so that has thrown off my chart, obviously. But there is a possibility that I am, or that I could ovulate in the next few days while on IVs. (There's also a possibility that I could go totally anovulatory because of all the crazy stuff that's been happening.) Obviously even if I did ovulate, the chances of actually being pregnant are slim to none, but what I'm wondering is........................ would it do damage to be on tobramycin IV for the first 2 weeks of pregnancy? Just curious... I'm totally paranoid about all meds during the luteal phase, but I keep reminding myself that plenty of women drink, smoke, do drugs and don't find out that they're pregnant until weeks along - and their babies are usually fine! LOL.

I think its really a personal decision here. I know theres women that have been on IV tobra during pregnancy knowing they were pregnant. And like you said theres countless women that have taken lots of stuff not knowing yet they were pregnant. This is the least favorite part of the whole 'baby' process for me.

Well, my temp finally came down from my fever today and revealed that in fact, I haven't ovulated yet, so it's officially not an issue this time. I agree with you though... I think going with your gut is the best thing to do!

I think that, during most of the luteal phase, a lot of stuff doesn't have an impact because the embryo hasn't implanted yet. And I'm pretty sure I remember that you don't share a blood supply with the baby until 6 weeks or so. Also, if something did affect the baby, I think I'd just be a really early miscarriage - one of those where a person would only know they were pregnant if they took an early pregnancy test.

But, at the same time, I always made a point to tell me doctors I was TTC and they sometimes changed my meds based on that!

Hey Cindy..

Don't know if this is all that helpful...but I've been taking olive leaf capsules for about 7-8months now and have found my immune systems seem to be holding up very well...I just went to our fertility clinic last Thursday...and I asked her about the olive leaf capsules...she said the 'olive leaf' capsules seemed ok to be on while ttc while on these. Just thought this might have be of interest to you! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Also olive leaf capsules are all natural and were actually used to kill bacterial infections in the old days...when people back then...did not have the synthetic antibiotics to use.

Anyway...don't know if this will help you but it maybe wroth a try...? i've found it wonders for my overall health in general <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Take care and keep us updated! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
