Asthma

[chelpruitt]

Anyone with asthma? Is it okay to use your inhaler?  Im having a terrible time breathing but being sunday I cant call my dr to see if I can use it.

I use mine. your doctor's office doesn't have an on call doc? I thought most ob offices have an on call doc that you can talk to 24/7.

I was told that using my Albuterol was perfectly fine, BUT I don't want to be responsible for telling you that's it's okay for you & your baby..

again, *I* was told that it was okay for me.. if that helps?! lol (((:

I have bronchial asthma, so mine used to only flare up if I had a cough, allergies, stress, etc. but since becoming pregnant I do get short of breath A LOT.. especially with this south carolina hot/humid heat, 100+ degrees! having a short torso doesn't help either! lol the hormones make it even worse.. but it's totally normal.

I'd still call your doctor when you can just to make sure your dosage & stuff were alright for you & baby.. good luck!! (((:

I would say use it it can't harm the baby its helping you breathe.  If you stop breathing baby stops breathing.
