I'm 10 weeks and at 7 weeks I got a tooth pulled the dentist prescribed me lortab so I called my ob and they said that lortab was fine as they prescribed it to many pregnant women in there office
Talk to your ob they will put you on something but they may just keep you on your vicodin. When I was pregnant with my son I was perscribed vicodin a few times.
Narcotics due pose a threat to brain development of a fetus. Please consult with your doc asap as you do not want to harm your baby. Good luck
Thank you all for your comment and great advice. I was able to make an appt. next Tuesday and will for sure talk to them about the meds I take for my chronic migraine. They were going to schedule me for April but I begged for an earlier appt. I explained my situation so they squeezed me in....yay! Wish me luck!
Again, thank you so much for the support! God Bless....
Of course you need to talk to your doctor, at times it is dangerous to baby if you just stop meds and also you being stressed/in pain is also unsafe for baby. Some people have to take meds to stay safe so baby can be safe
I saw a neurologist while I was pregnant because of the constant migraines I developed. I got nerve block shots and perceot to help with the pain. It didn't always work but it would help make them tolerable. I just got a new script this pregnancy for something else for my migraines. Can't remember the name but I'm hoping it works!
Hiya, someone mentioned addiction or something, doesn't matter if u r or not, ur body is used to it. As a nurse I advise u go to ur gp and try alternatives, things containing codiene will constipate u further, but there are many other pain killers out there which r safe. Taking strong painkillers over a number of years can b addictive but u seem sensible so go n c wat ur options r. I get migraines too so I can sympathise with u that they r awfal xx
I would definetly talk to your doctor. I've heard but am not sure how accurate this info is, is that the stress your body is under from being in pain can cause problems too. The stress of the pain is not good for your baby either. Talk to your doctor so you can weights the risks and the benefits.ayne he will change your meds. Congrats to you on your pregnancy and I hope your migraines subside.
I think you should talk to your doctor hun...my mother suffers with migraines as well, so I see the pain she deals with..I'm sure there is something you can safely take while pregnant...best wishes, hun..;-)
Hi, U shouldn't even be thinking of taking any prescription drugs while you are pregnant. These per day habbit is awfully dangerous thing to do. I was in Hospital suffering a misscarrage and the nurses tried to give me 2 Oxy-codone but I refuse to take it opting for panadol. I relize that you've been in this meds for a period of time now - that's were people abuse this meds and that they become addicted to this powerful pain killers. I'm no doctor, but at 5 weeks you are vounrable and what you take now may harm your beautiful baby.
God bless u & good luck
Good luck and congratulations
