Also remember that your temp runs a little high when pregnant. I'm usually 97.6 and I've been 99.4 or so lately. If it passes 100 is be worried. By all means call, but don't panic.
I take it if i really need it but i try not to take anyhing. And i totally agree with @jbandno3 it could help the fever a little but not help get rid of w/e virus is causing uthe fever. Although if its a virus you wont be able to cure it just supress the symptoms. But it could be some infection or w/e too.. hope you feel better boo
I get major allergy problems and do take claritin for that. I talked to my allergy doctor before I got pregnant and it was the best option. I used to take prescription clarinex and had to stop before I tried to conceive. I think I am going to take the tylenol just to keep the fever at bay. If it gets worse before Monday I will call but if not I will just go to the doctor then.
My doctor explained it like this... nothing is considered 100% safe, but tylenol is safest. He said if your need for it is that severe don't hesitate to take it as prescribed. So yes, its as safe as safe can be!
I went to the doctor on Monday and she gave me antibiotics. I stayed home today and I called in for tomorrow. It is just a really bad sinus infection. The highest my fever got was 100.6 with using tylenol. I don't like to use antibiotics either but she assured me they are safe. I hope she is right!
@ghettobetty I take one every five to six hours to keep my fever down. Guess baby didn't like the last one because I just got sick. I won't be able to take another one until morning.
@momaynot what did they put you on? I am taking Keflex but it is for a kidney and bladder infection. I am constantly getting colds so i don't know if the meds they have me on help with that or not. One doctor said i could take amoxicillin but another told me no.
I was put on an antibiotic in the amoxicilin family, but I forgot what it was called. Something like cednofir. And I was given a Z pack, too. The amox didnt clear up my sinus infection, or I just got a new one 2 weeks later. But that Z pack killed it.
Augmentin (sp ?) I called my ob and she said it was okay too so I hope they are both right. I started feeling better today thank God! Tuesday was the worst! @hurstk28
I take childrens Tylenol, I figure it's not as strong. My husband teases me that I take a dose for a 95 lb. child ( being 8 months pregnant I weigh a little more than that
