Stacey, 1st off have you had your prenatal labs drawn and is your
hemopgobin normal? Extreme fatigue at this stage of pregnancy is way
normal! (been there done that) Also, as for vag infection, certain meds
are not used until after 14-15 weeks. Macrobid is an antibiotic for
bladder infection, not for b/p. 2nd off, has OB done cultures? Are you
in a monogamous relationship? Also did OB do a wet prep to determine
what infection was? A wet prep is simply swabbing around in the vagina
with a swab, plcaing sample in special solution and looking under
microscope. Also, gotta add as is usual, are you drinking enough
fluids? Especially with warm weather arriving you need to drink lots of
fluids (not sodas)Good Luck!
