Medication

[waterlilie]

Hi all! i know this will sound so stupid but i am currently 10 dpo and suffering from a really bad tootache!! i am so afraid of taking any medication just in case i am already pregnant and might do something harmful

Am i being too paranoid and over cautious?? it's just that on every aspirin or paracetamol pack i read "Do not take and/or speak to your GP if you are pregnant"!

I know i will feel ridiculous if i get AF on Friday and will laugh at myself but for now can you please advise as i am in agony lol

From what I'v read, paracetamol is safe to take in pregnancy hun

Thanks Snuggle!! i will wait a couple of hours and see how it goes and if it becomes unbearable i'll take a paracetamol.

I went to the doctors last week about something and I said I didn't want to take pain killers for it, cos I was trying for a baby. She said I could take paracetamol 3 times a day everyday during pregnancy if I needed to. So it's definitely safe.
