I Am 8 Weeks Pregnant And Have Come Down With The Most Awful Bad Cold, Bordering On Flu, I Just Feel Terrible,

The question is, will this harm my baby? I have taken ibruprofen as I became desperate and some over the counter cold and flu remedies. Not much but just less than recommended dosage. Will this be ok?

    Don’t take anymore advil/ibu..it has been known to cause problems during pregnancy. Also, my doctor and also the pharmacist at my local drug store confirmed this, that ifyou take other over the counter meds for sinus problems/headaches(antihistamines and such like benedryl and sudafed) that could put you at risk for premature labor. I had a HORRIBLE sinus infection and the only thing I took was…
    1. Rapid release tylenol, as regular tylenol does NOTHING for me. You can also use the off-brand tylenol as well.
    2. Saline nose spray, just spray up the nostrils according to package directions and blow the crap (literally LOL) right outta yer nose.
    3. Drink plenty of water…I know it’s overused, but it works to flush out the crap in your head and chest.
    4. Extra vitamin C..You can never have too much as your body just gets rid of the excess no problem.
    Hope this helps! I feel for you!! =)
