    Nope. Only Panadol or Panadene as codene is safe to take during pregnancy.

    I don't think it is sorry.

    I always took Herron paracetamol during pg.

    Ibrufen is not good in pregancy...and will there is debate on codiene too. I was advised to take nothing other than panadol and not to take codiene (Mersyndol, panadiene forte).

    Hmmmm, I didn't think it was ok at all during pregnancy, though I'm sure others have taken it without problems. I didn't.

    Nope, no ibuprofen. You can take panadeine (codeine) if it's bad although I always tried to avoid it if possible.

    I only take panadeine if my back is really killing me or if i have a migraine but otherwise i try to avoid taking anything at all.

    Sorry - but nope is the correct answer!

    Do you have migranes regularly? Have you tried chiropractic? I did during my last pg and it made a massive difference. They can also help prepare your pelvis for optimum birth positioning. I had a fantastic birth second time around and swear by chiropractic care as a contributing factor! Great for babies' colic too.. but that's a whole other thread.

    Hope your migrane shifts soon. By the look of your sig you will be too busy to go and lie down! Oh, the joys of motherhood!

    No, i have only had them around 3-4 times. But they are terrible. My head hurts and i feel dizzy and cant look at the light and i feel really sick. And it's not morning sickness cause i got over that around a week ago.

    I had a chiro with my last pregnancy and yep made the birth a whole lot smoother. However she moved away and i havent found another one yet.
