Pregnancy and Asthma

by Flikwerks, Sep 04, 2006 12:00AM
Hi everyone. Is anyone pregnant or has been pregnant with Asthma? I have asthma and currently take Advair, Singulair and Albuterol as needed. I am curious to see what other people take or took and if everything was ok with their babies. I know I have to be on these meds because I have to breathe and the baby has to breathe but it does worry me alittle bit. I am also still cramping which is weird because yesterday I did not cramp at all and today I am again. I hope it goes away soon. I find out about my HCG levels tomorrow and maybe that will put my mind to ease. My first pregnancy eneded in Miscarriage after only 5+ weeks.

Thank you Jen. That makes me feel better. I am just a worrier and have been having cramps on top of everything else. I hope I am ok this time around.

I take a steroid inhaler twice a day, and I hae been pregnant a few times and each time I ask the doc whether it is safe and everyone of them tell me yes.  Good luck!!!
