Bendryl after zyrtec when pregnant?

I'm new here and am 10 weeks pregnant with my second. My have had terrible allergy symptoms so dr told me that zyrtec, Claritan and bendryl are safe during pregnancy. I took Zyrtec during the day yesterday with no relief by bedtime so I took a Benadryl to hopefully get some sleep at night because my symptoms were still terrible!
Didn't realize this might not be ok to mix- anyone have any idea if mixing them once is ok?? Now I'm really nervous I did something wrong even though they're both safe.

Both are fine. I'm taking benadryl 3-4x a day for a bizarre autoimmune situation I'm having and OB has no concerns. I took zyretc and benadryl together earlier in my pregnancy too.

I say call the doctor for a sure answer as to how far apart your doses of each should be if you are going to take them in the same day and mixing

I do it lol. I take zyrtec in the morning and by the afternoon I'm taking benedryl. I'm allergies are awful as well. I have a sinus infection that they won't treat. I go back Friday and telling them it's time to treat it I'm miserable!!!!!
