Here's a link for Percocet & pregnancy -

http://www.drugs.com/percocet.html.  Percocet is category 'c' - little or known studies have been conducted for safety for pregnant women.

The best thing to do is ask your dr about it - he's the best person to advise you because he knows your situation - I wish you good luck!

I just found out that five weeks pregnant. I had to ask him for some something for pain because of the serve cramping I was tring to deal with tylenol. That wasn't helping at all but I told him I had a couple percocet that taken and the pain eased. He did say that be careful because of early pregnacy. So i drew the conclusion that if the doctors are willing to give percocet then only take it as you really need it.
