With a high risk pregnancy, who are you supposed to see for a bad cold/cough?

My OB is closed for the week so I went to urgent care, but they are scared to prescribe me anything because of my high risk pregnancy. They prescribed an antibiotic that *should* be safe to take but said that I should call my MFM triage line to make sure. I'm pretty sure my MFM told me to just go to urgent care and keep them in the loop. Now I'm having trouble figuring out how to reach their triage line. 😮‍💨

The local hospitals maternity unit should have a triage line, not sure about needing your records but might be worth a shot?

@Victoria yeah I'm trying to call them but the phone tree is sending me in circles 😭 I have called before and am not sure why I can't reach them this time

Ugh im sorry i hate when that happens. Maybe try again in an hour?

Urgent care should know what AB are safe in pregnancy.

Phew, finally heard back from my MFM and the antibiotic Urgent Care prescribed is perfectly safe. They thought it was safe but they wanted me to check with the MFM just in case
