Pregnant & Allergies

I found out I was pregnant at 9 weeks. I haven't had my first appointment yet but my allergies are going crazy. Does anyone know if I'm allowed to take allergy medicine or any kinds I'm supposed to avoid?. Thanks in advance ladies.

advertise.com is an awesome website for checking medications. It tells you exactly what the risks are and what studies have been done to prove it.

Claritin or zyrtec is what you can take they told me to get zyrtec for mine I'm 30w5d now but in the beginning of my pregnancy I took claritin they gave me a paper of medications safe to take and for allergies it says either one of those are safe
