I had 2 copies of TCOYF and they were both lent out. I am not sure that I am pregnant, but want to be cautious just incase. Please, if anyone can share with me what meds are okay. I seem to remember that pseudephrine is okay. I have a booming headache and just want to know incase I am driven to taking something for it!

Appreciate it and baby dust to all! :)

Hi Monica,

I noticed you hadn't gotten any responses yet, so I'm going to attempt to answer your question. I *think* I have heard that Tylenol is OK to take while PG, if you have to take something. Ibuprofen is not, so steer cleer of that.

And if I'm wrong, at least I'm bumping your post back up to the top, so someone can correct me and give you the right answer! Good luck to you! Hope you get your BFP on Wednesday!

Yes, you can take Tylenol when you are pregnant.. My OB said not to take PEPTO Bismol though.. you can take antacids, but not Pepto..

Good Luck!! Hope you get your BFP on Wednesday!!

Keep us posted!
