2 Month Update

Finally getting around to an update about how things have been going for the past 2 months since Lex was born. I forgot to mention in the video that the Lyme testing on the placenta and cord blood came back negative which is quite a relief.

I've been on Zithromax and Ceftin but I know some people are on different antibiotics during pregnancy like amoxicillin (also usually use with Zithromax I think). I do know that being on 2 antibiotics during the pregnancy and as long as you breastfeed is important. Just being on one offers some protection but not as much as 2.

I'm not sure how important it is to start before you conceive. I was on 1 beforehand and added in the other after finding out I was pregnant. I think as long as you start pretty early in the pregnancy it's okay but I'm not a doctor so don't take my word for it. And you can absolutely have a natural birth. There's no reason to have a c-section because of Lyme and actually I would think surgery would be much more difficult to recover from with Lyme than a vaginal birth.
