I am on vicodin right now and it was prescribed to me by my OB. It depends on what you are taking it for and how much you are taking.

Actually no its not..dr's prescibe that all the time to pregnant women. As long as a doctor has prescribed it(and your not getting it from a family member etc)

I was on vicodin and all kinds of other medications, totally under doctor supervision, and my daughter is a perfect healthy 12 week old.

Nana is right, it is a class C which means it can be. That doesn't mean it will be 100% of the time. It is always a risk versus benefit, take it only when you need it, only as long as you need it and wean off of it as soon as you are able.
