Need urgent advice - Paracetamol

[Mamafy]

Right my head is banging guys Partly virus and partly an 'inlaw problem'

I took 2 paracetamol yesterday as a last resort for the virus and was going to take another 2 this evening only my 15 year old has put me off She's doing childcare and they've discussed it today and the teacher said you shouldn't take it

I've always thought as a last resort it was ok but maybe things have changed?

Does anyone know more recent as my head feels like its about to explode

thanks guys xx

My midwife said that paracetamol is fine, its nuerophen that you cant have. Also when I thought I was pregnant in Jan I had a bad fall and the doctors said that I could have paracetamol to take the edge off the pain but nothing else. Take some and I hope your head feels better soon

Paracetamal is fine to take. When I went into pharmacys asking what you can take they just looked at me confused and were like 'you cant take anything...only paracetamol'. So I took it when I was ill

paracetamol is fine but NOT asprin. It thins your blood, which is fine for us, not okay for baby. glad to hear youre better today.
