doctor vs. mother in law

[lexi_daniel]

So my doctor tells me to take tylenol but my mother in Law says no I saw it on the news it's not good for you ? and she gives me ibeprophen (sorry if I spelled it wrong) but I want to go by what my doctor says but I feel like she will freak out if I do...  I live with my fiance and his parents so my mom isn't around much that's why I say mother in law.

Tylenol is fine to take but ibuprofen is a blood thinner an it's unsafe to take while pregnant listen to your dr not mil

Tylenol is ok. There was a study in Sweden that clames they can link the use to a rude 7% increase in adhd. But thats only one study and thats with the mothers taking it often. I wouldn't take anything that often being pregnant other than prenatals but if you need it you need it. Also ob's and pediatrician say that allot of the symptoms that tylenol treats if untreated can be linked to adhd and they advice women it's still deemed safe.

Ladies you can take Tylenol but I hear it also cost birth defects... One is your baby can turn out with ADHD proven fact but I say take it only when really needed try to sleep off some of you head aches

You can get the knock-off version of tylenol is the same thing and you can get that from the dollar store, it'll cost way way way more to have your dr perscribe you some instead of just buying some

Your mother I law is not a dr !
Listen to your dr :)
As far as I know , your not suppose to take ibuprofen

[tigersfan1991]

Motrin is not safe, and very harmful after 30 weeks

[lexi_daniel]

Thank you ladies so much! I guess if I need some and don't have any I can have my doc proscribe me some!:)

Ibuprofen has a muscle relaxant in it that's very bad for the baby, it can make your uterus become lazy, don't take that lovely my doc says it's a no no! Listen to your doctor your mother in law isn't a professional

[knufrio]

Once shouldn't do any harm just don't take it again :-)

[Baby_Zander090114]

Lol..  ibreprophen is a no-nowhen you're pregnant!  It causes birth defects! Tylenol is safe ..

[lexi_daniel]

So will I be okay if I took it once today? Just once I won't take it anymore because I'M a paranoia I freak out over everything! And it scares me I'M 20 weeks 6 days and I'M scared now... plus she won't buy me tylenol because she says it's not good for me so I'M like uhhhh... what do I do..

[Yoshii_93]

Tylenol is safe ibuprofen definitely not do not listen to your mother in law go with the doctor please!!

[boothang8695]

Drs are right about this. Tylonal good. Ibuprofen bad.

[SlavicaTurpin]

Tylenol! Or anything acetaminophen. NO Ibuprofen.

[sammymo]

I have chronic back pain and the only thing safe to take is Tylenol

[knufrio]

You need to go by what your Dr says. Tylenol is safe, ibuprofen is not!

[ericatoday]

[lexi_daniel]
