I was diagnosed with Chronic lyme, bartonella and babesia 3 years ago and have been treated by my current doc with herbs and argentyn IVs(she is an ND who claims to be a specialist in lyme), but I am unfortunately not improving and my latest CD57 just came back at 1.0. I am really scared as I am also currently 12.5 weeks pregnant with my first child, and while my pregnancy is progressing well at this point and baby is strong and healthy, I want to be sure that I am able to get well to be able to support the pregnancy through the whole term and not pass on anything to my little one. I think it is best to seen a new doctor as I feel like I am running around in circles with my current one.

Back to the original question..Dr. J's protocol is good at preventing transmission during pregancy. He states you need to be on 2 antibiotics and if you are for the entire pregancy there is almost zero chance of transmission.
The drugs of choice are Zithromax and Omnicef
or
Zithromax and Amoxicillin or Bicillin
