Taking Fioricet while pregnant

[HeardHurtsDaily]

I'm now 20 weeks pregnant and suffer from migraines and daily tension headaches. I get them daily. I was prescribed Fioricet, but everything I've read scares me. I had a friend who took them almost daily due to hormonal headaches which increased with pregnancy and her baby is healthy. Im a working mom with 2 other children ( I did not experience this with them) , but I can't deal with these headaches and Need to function at work and home I'm just so worried I feel like something is wrong. Someone please give me some feed back.

I've taken it while preg w my first 2children as well as this one and my boys were very healthy and happy w no complications!! My first 2pregnacys they also gave me vicoden for when migranes were unbearable. This pregnancy my Dr told me I could also take maxalt( I was told w my first 2 that maxalt was not safe AT ALL) after doing some research I decided against maxalt but am continuing firocet.

So sorry to hear about the headaches!  What does your OB say about the medication?  This might sound weird, but I'd also ask the pharmacist their input- they always are great at explaining risks and sharing info about the medication.
