vicodin during pregnancy

by RAWINA, Nov 14, 2008 09:44PM
Hi. I am 18 week pregnant, I have been taking vicodin from time to time when I have sever pain(I have Colitis).
I was taking it more often in early pregnany, before I found out that I am pregnant, almost daily for a month.
When I found out that i am pregnant, I tried to take it less often, like once a week(sometimes the pain so sever).
My ob said it's ok to take it from time to time as need it, but I found out that it's category c in FDA list.
I am realy worried now, and wondering if any of you have taken it during pregnancy.
Thank you

You should be fine. The doctors knowing im preg. prescribed me vicodin cough syrup. Plus half the meds I HAVE to take during pregnancy are category c. My first dd turned out  wonderfully. As long as your ob knows what you are taking it's ok. they wont let u take any thing that will seriously harm your child.
