I’m 4 weeks pregnant and found this attached to me. This is after removal. I don’t believe it was attached a long time as it was relatively easy to get out and doesn’t look engorged. My doctor says not to worry, unless I start seeing a rash or feeling any flu like symptoms. She says they do not recommend preventative antibiotics for someone newly pregnant like me because the risk outweighs the very small chance I contracted Lyme. She says it would have need to have been attached for 3 days and engorged. I’m worried I won’t be able to tell the difference between early preg symptoms and tick symptoms. Do I have anything to be worried about? Last picture is day after bite.
