    Unhappy Oh no!

    I'm such a dufas... I just took cold and flu tablets as I'm feeling a little under the weather, not even thinking about the possibility of me being pregnant, and then it just hit me like a tonne of bricks, I wasn't thinking!

    I've just read the leaflet in the box and it says not to take the medication if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant.

    Please tell me it'll be ok... I can't believe I didn't think!!

    Try not to worry too much about it taking them as a once off will be fine.

    Re:Oh no!

    aww hugs hun It will be perfectly fine if you're preg, i promise In the early stages of pregnancy our little bubs are very well protected, and i'm pretty sure that this early your possible little one will still be getting everythin they need from the yolk sac. People have done far more before they knew they were preg, like drinking, eating ALL the wrong foods and even drugs and their babies have been fine.

    I'm sure it will be fine. I took all sorts of things when I was about 5 weeks pg with DS but didn't know - I had my wisdom teeth out so general anaesthetic, anti-biotics, nurofen, thrush tablet - I was panicking & calling the dentist, anaesthetist, my GP, anyone who'd listen & they all said it would be fine and well, he's fine.

    Maybe just stick to paracetemol from now on JIC.
