Hi all, I'm 5 weeks pg, found out yesterday and have such a bad head today. Quite overwhelmed at the moment and worrying! I took paracetamol, that's ok isn't it?? 😥😥😥😥
Paracetamol is perfectly fine, do not take ibuprofen anything else check with a pharmacist or doctor but paracetamol is safe
No trying to unnecessarily scare anyone, just provide up to date info - but there was a recent study that suggested paracetamol could potentially affect the fertility of unborn babies... https://www.mrc.ac.uk/news/browse/study-finds-paracetamol-use-in-pregnancy-can-cut-female-fertility/ http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/health-news/using-paracetamol-during-pregnancy-could-affect-fertility-in-girls-study-suggests-a6836796.html
I've been taking paracetamol like it's going out of fashion for severe gastritis pain and will continue to do so, being in pain puts you under a lot of stress so I think it's important not to let yourself suffer x
