Anyone take macrobid for uti?

I just finished a week of macrobid for a uti. The entire week I was so nauseated and sick. I figured it was early morning sickness but I woke up Sunday feeling better (my last pill was Friday night).
 I do not feel great, just better. I can eat and drink water without gagging. Now I am worried I may have a decrease in hormones that is causing me to feel better, which is obviously not good. I am hoping someone else can verify they too were sick on Macrobid since it seems to be a common side effect. I am just being paranoid, but I do not have my 1st DR appt till 9 weeks!

Google says it's safe for pregnancy.  So prolly just the pills, since you say that's a side effect.

I had frequent UTIS when I was pregnant with my son and took Macrobid more than I cared to.

I don't remember feeling sick because of it, but please call your doctor and let him or her know your concerns. Make sure that you eat with it, as well.

I get UTI's ALL the time. For a while my doctor would prescribe Macrobid. I remember a couple years ago it didn't seem to bother me, but this year I took it a few times, and I would vomit almost 15 minutes after I would take a pill. That stuff was HORRID on my stomach. From then on out I told my doctor no more. I have heard Macrobid is one of the worst when it comes to making people sick, and it definitely is to me.

I take it to prevent uti's after sex preventatively. Obviously, small dose. I do stop it two weeks before I get my cerclage out just in case, however my doctor has never mentioned me stopping it. I am too worried about the bleeding issue with the baby that cutting my husband off is no big deal.

Taking it now. This is my second attempt to rid of the infection.

Honestly, knowing what I know now, I'd just opt for an injection and get it over with. Good luck.
