Im 27 weeks and having really bad allergies. Anybody know whats safe , good to take?? I dont have appointment tell monday and i cant take it nomore

most allergy meds are safe as long as they don't have the D those have vasoconstrictors it can be harmful to the baby or to Mom I'm not sure which but you cannot take antihistamines while breastfeeding so I'm doing my best to stick to only benadryl before I go to bed just so that I can get used to my allergies because I'm going to be at the height of allergy season for me at least when the baby is born

I take Claritin and Zyrtec and I still get stuffy at night. It's frustrating because I'm either blowing all day and stuffy at night. I sneeze a lot and constantly blowing. I sometimes get extremely dried out and I can't take it. I also use netti pot, nasal spray and nothing helps. Any other suggestions. It seems everytime I get pregnant my smell sensitivity heightens to the extreme.

Thanks for any help.

Claritin.... not clarifying. ... oh auto correct!   Sorry about that!

I am a major allergy sufferer!  Clarifying and Zyrtec are safe to take.  However!   Do not get the ones with the "D" added onto them (claritin d) because that is either not studied enough yet or not recommended.   I take claritin as needed.   "They" say it might be bad for allergies this spring with the late start.  Exercise indoors.  Take care and hopeb this is helpful.  We are also allowed Benadryl but that you would need to call about. ...  I take claritin because you just take one teeny tiny pill ans it agrees with my system.  A happy and healthy pregnancy for all! !!  :)  ♡☆♡☆♡☆
