antibiotics

I got bit by a dog on my leg and the bite wasn't to bad but it did break skin so I got put on antibiotics for 10 days and I'm nervous that it's not ok to take. But Iv been taking the recommended dose for like 3 days now. I'm 19 weeks pregnant now.

I was just on 16 days of 3 very strong antibiotics. Dr's are very cautious  when prescribing meds during pregnancy. I wouldn't be nervous

Take extra folic acid maybe? I am on 5 mg for meds I take everyday. But dr wouldn't put you on something that would harm the baby.
